IRONHEART: First Reactions To All 6 Episodes Of Marvel's Latest Disney+ Series Land

Sounds like I’m going to fast forward through the exposition and watch the action. I’ll watch the ending though

Not reading the reviews but we’re here now. I’ll check out the first 3 episodes tomorrow

Sounds like I don’t need to bother renewing my Disney+ for this one. I can catch it on the next rotation.

So Mark Cassidy created a thread about reactions for Iron heart in which it reference his own review....now that's META!

Usually the Disney+ shows suffer from a weak finale. So it's interesting that the best episode is the finale according to the reviews.

Seriously, what's the difference between black genius and let's say Asian genius or Puerto Rican genius? How about Indian or Samoan? Isn't genius just genius?

Looks bland.

Really great pic, Mark.

Interesting...Sounds like its just okay while the Finale is amazing.

Wow. Worst initial reactions I’ve seen for marvel maybe ever. Exactly what we’d expect from this one. Too bad

Another Marvel turd hits the bottom of the pan and just needs flushing. Is this supposed to play out as Ironman vs the Mandarin which we never got? Kevin needs firing and quickly before the ship finally sinks.

I watched all six episodes of #Ironheart and it deserves your attention. It's better than most recent Marvel Studios theatrical releases and is one of the rare good MCU TV shows. Dominique Thorne is a star, peak production values, no idea what it's leading to but I'd like more.🧵

What's most interesting about Ironheart is that it gives the Marvel Cinematic Universe a young and complicated character who makes questionable decisions, balancing emotion with genius level intellect. Her future could be so interesting in comparison to Tony Stark / Iron Man.

One of several reasons Ironheart was delayed for so long is that this needed to be great for Ryan Coogler to have his name the largest on the poster. Worth the wait and when you watch, the timing works out well with what's going on in MCU and IRL.

One more thing I'll say about Ironheart is that it really embraces the comic book source material, more than you'd expect. Sometimes the goofier elements of the action or certain character moments clash with the more serious and emotional beats.

Lets talk #Ironheart!

While I struggled a bit in the first half, they actually HAD ME in the second! The incorporation of magical elements were an unexpected surprise and I LOVE Dominique Thorne as Riri Williams and Lyric Ross was great!! Ironheart was a good time!

i was utterly charmed by #ironheart, even if it takes a minute to find its footing. the show gives riri a much-needed remix, and it really sings when leaning into weird science and even weirder magic. it’s abt to change the mcu in a way we’ve all been waiting for

Even though I’m not personally the biggest fan of blending tech and mysticism, #Ironheart turned out better than I expected—especially in the last couple episodes. What really landed for me was how it ties back to the original Iron Man— (1/2)

—adding an unexpected layer of legacy to RiRi’s journey. And without spoiling anything, there’s a character introduced late in the season that really makes the show stand out. (2/2) #Ironheart

The first 3 episodes of Marvel's Ironheart are good.. the last 3 episodes are GREAT! It's a lot more emotional than I expected & I found myself crying quite often. Dominique Thorne is a freaking star. Her chemistry with Lyric Ross - phenomenal! Episode 6 had me like 😱 #Ironheart

IRONHEART blasts off & doesn’t look back! Stakes & emotions are high, building to a finale that’ll have fans talking & theorizing! Dominique Thorne & Anthony Ramos are great. Loved their storylines. Can’t wait 2 talk more about that 1 surprise 👀 & the fun Easter eggs #Ironheart

#Ironheart suffers from too few episodes to dynamically explore the interesting ideas of access and privilege being discussed. However, Dominique Thorne and Alden Ehrenreich lead this show toward a satisfying conclusion that left me excited for Marvel's next steps.

I was shocked at how much I enjoyed Ironheart, some pacing issues aside, this bit of tech-action mixed with some of the more magical side of Marvel is thrilling and intriguing. Anthony Ramos, Dominique Thorne, and Alden Ehrenreich are scene-stealing in their own ways. #IronHeart

#Ironheart is EXACTLY the type of show that the MCU should be putting out. Smaller scale, street level threats, with strong, character driven stories. Between this and Daredevil: Born Again, MCU's television is on a roll. Give me more!

#IronHeart is a beautiful, relatable tale about the struggle of success, the heartbreak of life & the desperation to make a name 4 yourself. Tech & magic come together in this story full of depth, temptation, surprises & family. Dominique Thorne is the embodiment of Riri Williams

#Ironheart is a spectacular dose of black girl magic.

One of Marvel's best shows. Filled with charming, likable characters. From the heroes to the villains, everyone is magnetic. Dominique Thorne and Alden Ehrenreich are outstanding. Anthony Ramos is in rare form.

Funny, grounded, and superpowerful. Some clever MCU tie-ins. A VERY bold ending too!

Just finished Ironheart and it keeps you hooked. 🔥
The pacing’s tight, and Riri’s arc is solid even if a few side characters feel two-dimensional.
That final episode? Wild casting move. 👀 Totally didn’t see it coming, but it worked.

#Ironheart is a bit of a mess—but it means well. Dominique Thorne is great, grounding the story with real emotion as Riri builds something new from grief. Rushed pacing and inconsistent narrative weigh it down, leaving a series that reaches for greatness but never quite takes off

#IronHeart is imaginative and a really fun pocket of the MCU. It has a grounded/street level feel thats a welcome change of pace from the usual world ending threats and it elevates the stakes for Riri & Hood. The magic+tech combo happened too easily for me, but works well overall

#Ironheart is a high-tech rollercoaster from start to finish. Lots to love here beyond what I was expecting with some solid performances despite a bit of a slower start. The evolution from science to the MCU’s mystical side had me HOOKED. The visuals are 🔥

#IRONHEART is a sincere look at what the life of a teen genius superhero would be like. It’s fun & exciting but also hard & heavy.

🌟 Dominique Thorne is a true STAR & the perfect Riri Williams.

This series has massive implications for the future of the #MCU. MASSIVE.

Ironheart is the most interesting Marvel TV has been from a magical standpoint. It might not seem like a story involving mysticism, but there’s plenty of action and magic to go around here. #IronHeart

One of the best parts of BLACK PANTHER: WAKANDA FOREVER was Riri's subplot, and IRONHEART finally brings the character back in Marvel's most interesting series since MS. MARVEL. It's interesting to see how the MCU deals with grief for the second project in a row.

With the welcomed return of Riri Williams, #Ironheart is full of life, heart and identity. It highlights the struggle of finding success as a Black person in a world that’s out to get you and explores dynamics that Marvel has yet to dive into.

It’s got a hard focus on family, grief and hopelessness and the dangerous pathway that can lead you on, but the “six episode event” format hurts the show as it reaches its final episode, with decisions that are just outright baffling, making it clear this show is stuck in the past with Marvel’s outdated mandate. Regardless, Ironheart is still an entertaining watch that expands on both the world of magic and technology.

I’ve seen all episodes of Marvel Studios’ #Ironheart. It’s a slow burn. But once it gets going there’s a lot to enjoy. Dominique Thorne is electrifying as RiRi Williams whilst Anthony Ramos seems to be searching for meaning in The Hood. Mixing tech and magic works really well.

Overall, #Ironheart is an enjoyable series, but with ups and downs: starting with weak writing, but interesting characters and themes. It suffers the limitations of Bob Chapek's

#Ironheart delivers an INSANELY FUN STORY that perfectly blends tech & magic. Dominique Thorne is a force to be reckoned with as Riri Williams & Anthony Ramos is haunting as The Hood. It’s filled with fun Easter eggs & CRAZY surprises that will change the MCU forever!

#Ironheart doesn't break any new ground with its story (and the less said about The Hood's crew, the better). However, it's an enjoyable ride buoyed by stellar performances from Dominique Thorne, Alden Ehrenreich, Anthony Ramos, and Lyric Ross. DON'T MISS THE FINALE! 👀

#Ironheart has so much going for it including the introduction of a long-awaited character, but feels like only half of a story. Solid cast and a refreshing Chicago setting help make this a fun show. Full review at

#Ironheart is a mixed bag for me, which is a shame because I wanted them to smash it and put a middle finger up at the trolls. The second half is much better than the first tho, especially when magic’s thrown into the mix. Regan Aliyah is a scene-stealer and Lyric Ross is the MVP


Germain Lussier
@GermainLussier
#Ironheart is one of my favorite Marvel shows. It blends so much of what we love about the MCU so seamlessly with fantastic characters, performances, and style. Goes places I didn't expect, links in wild ways, but always keeps its dynamic, flawed, lead character front and center.

#Ironheart is not Ironman 4, and that’s a good thing. Doesn’t lean too heavy into Stark, letting Riri Williams shine. There’s depth w/ themes of trauma and overcoming grief. The dynamic between Riri and Natalie is the glue! Big MCU reveal in the back half. A very Chicago show!


Nicole Drum
@lifeinpolaroid
So. #Ironheart

I didn't hate it. It wasn't bad. There are some genuinely kickass moments and it really digs into the themes of grief and trauma that I love exploring. But there are also some pacing issues & a few things that I really didn't love at all. Overall, worth a watch.

I've seen all 6 episodes of #Ironheart. Great performances by Dominique Thorne and Alden Ehrenreich along with some cool VFX, but its half baked ideas make it feel mostly soulless. The finale however, is one of the best of the MCU Disney+ era.

@Klepcx
😱 #IronHeart soars above the bar! However, with tonal stylings similar to the Ms Marvel series, Iron Heart manages to stretch beyond the bounds of the MCU opening our minds to the true possibilities of tech vs magic. We’re no longer in phases one through three ladies and gentlemen as this series acknowledges its differences by introducing more modern comic book easter eggs, flawed heroic antics and a bit of a darker narrative. You might say the only issues are in the series villains and that there just maybe one too many to know what to do with. Other issues surrounding CGI and the stakes or lack thereof, but a BIG reveal and shocking ending will leave Marvel fans eyes wide open for sure!

#Ironheart is a lean, grounded yet high impact, MCU-shifting outing. Dominique Thorne is memorable and badass, Anthony Ramos builds a complex antagonist, and there are solid surprises in store. Ryan Coogler builds a lived-in and complex world. A solid, breezy outing.
