An excellent ending to this delightful mini-series.
In this final episode, Kamala returns to Jersey. There her and friends do everything they can to protect Kamran from Damage Control.
Many of this Disney+ Marvel series seem to have the same main problem. This is that the finale seems to be very disappointing. For instance, look at Wanda Vision, which was incredibly good build up that lead to a disappointing finale. However, with this show the final episode remains a very strong conclusion. What makes this episode work so well is that despite being an action-packed episode, the focus is on the characters not the action. The highlights come from Kamla telling her family that she is truly a superhero, Kamala having a heart-to-heart talk with Kamran over the death of his mother and Zoe (the school's popular girl) ending up being a much more likable character than we have seen previously. I especially love the interaction between Kamala and her family when she reveals that she is a superhero. I love that they are so loving and accepting, while still being very protective of her. This episode also has some of the best comedic moments in any episode of this show. Though the focus is on the characters, the action scenes are a lot of fun. While they obviously aren't the pure spectacles you would see in the theatrical movies, they still look great. The action scenes also find wonderfully creative ways to use Kamala's powers. The ending was also great as it felt like a real conclusion to this storyline while still alluding to the things to come for this character in the MCU.
It took me a while to get around to watching this series. However, when I finally did, I was very impressed with what a fun ride it was.
