The action in the series has been described as “brilliant” “violent” and “incredible”, so it looks like the action is another big positive for the series. Another postive ECHOed by most is that the series certainly feels more grounded and character driven, with lower stakes than other MCU projects. One reaction did find the pacing shaky but ultimately found the first 3 episodes enjoyable, and were excited to watch the rest. Overall there seems to be lots to look forward to with Echo from the violence, to the “brilliant” action, to its grounded, character driven tone, and ofcourse seeing Vincent D’Onofrio reprise his iconic role from Daredevil.
