WandaVision - Review of the fourth episode of the Disney + series

Disney e The Marvel movies they returned to delight us thanks to the fourth episode of WandaVision, the series that sees as protagonists Wanda Maximoff e Vision, respectively interpreted by Elizabeth olsen e Paul Bettany, and that last January 15 officially kicked off the fourth phase of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. This comes after the incredible success of the third, which officially ended with the adventures of the friendly neighborhood wall climber Peter Parker in Spider-Man: Far From Home. The title will link directly to some of the products coming out over the next few years, specifically with Doctor Strange: In the Multiverse of Madness and with Spider-Man 3 (working title as the real one has not yet been officially announced), laying the foundations for the introduction of the Multiverse and the future of the entire MCU. The series consists of nine episodes, which will be released every Friday morning on the streaming platform Disney +.



A new point of view

This fourth episode differs completely from the others, putting in the foreground the characters who, just like us, they are trying to understand what is happening to Wanda and Vision, connecting the dots and elaborating theories on the fate of the inhabitants WestView. The scene opens unexpectedly, showing Geraldine / Monica Rambeau (Teyonah Parris) come back to life five years after the snap of the fingers of Thanos, thanks to the reverse snap of Hulk, the sacrifice of Tony Stark and all the other happenings that we got to see inside Avergers: Endgame. This flashback allows us to position WandaVision within the product timeline of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, showing the public some fundamental information and details regarding the management and introduction of new characters within the aforementioned cinematic universe.



If, after a series of bizarre and disturbing events, the third episode showed us Monica forcibly exit from the utopian reality presumably created by Wanda, this instead presents us the way in which she entered, sucked almost by mistake by the mysterious barrier that surrounds the town. The inability to communicate with the residents of WestView and the disappearance of a person in protective custody pushed him SWORD (Sentient World Observation and Response Department) to involve a ragtag group of scholars in the research, among whom we can also find Darcy Lewis (Kat Dennings), the astrophysics that we have already got to know within Thor e Thor: The Dark World. Darcy will be accompanied by Jimmy woo, the FBI agent previously featured within the Marvel Cinematic Universe in Ant-Man and the Wasp. The two characters will find themselves forced to put the pieces together and understand what is happening to the two newlyweds who, in the meantime, continue to take care of Billy and Tommy, the two twins. born in the last episode.

The real threat

The utopia that was created in the first episodes seems ready to break and the playful and funny tones, deliberately inspired by the American sitcoms of the 50s, 60s and 70s, seem to leave more and more space for a disturbing and unhappy fate for our protagonists and specifically for Wanda, already emotionally tested by Geraldine in the last episode. The focus shifts to them only in the last minutes and, despite the presence of these was decidedly marginal, it will only take a few moments to better understand how the events of the last episode had strong repercussions on the mind of the woman, more and more victim of his own feelings, poised between reality and fiction.



Although this episode seems to suddenly interrupt the magic that others have managed to create in recent weeks, this brief interruption of the program solves some of the questions surrounding the series, as well as offering us many other questions to solve. IS even if the time management was not able to convince all the spectatorsi and is currently one of the most criticized aspects of the entire production (in addition to the much discussed weekly release), WandaVision proves itself again as a product managed in a impeccable, able to condense within its extremely short times great revelations, twists and turns and new surprises for viewers. As a demonstration of this, the new episode lets us understand, and not in a too veiled way, that the series has much more to offer us and that all the certainties of the spectators are ready to be destroyed at any moment.


WandaVision - Review of the fourth episode of the Disney + series

WandaVision continues to present itself as a perfectly successful experiment, capable of keep the audience's interest high and unleash an ever-constant flow of ideas, theories and assumptions in the audience. The entire series is full of clues and references, as well as wonderful quotes dedicated to fans and readers of the staples Marvel Comics, winking overwhelmingly to the future of the entire Marvel Cinematic Universe. The fourth phase will juggle between an experimental intertwining of the events presented within the television series and those that will later be shown in cinemas. WandaVision, offers itself as a real turning point for the universe that we have got to know over the years, as a forerunner after the numerous postponements of Black Widow and Falcon and the Winter Soldier. The introduction of the Multiverse, new characters and new possibilities are condensed in this show in all their glory to officially lay the foundations on a completely new and unexplored path, which will surely be able to offer us new experiences and emotions. We just have to wait for next Friday to find out how Marvel Studios will be able to amaze us again.
