(It feels like one last commentary on the monotony of so many classic sitcoms, as it’s not hard to imagine a “realistic” version of Gilligan from Gilligan’s Island might similarly want to kill himself if he could look at his life from outside the confining narrative of the show.) It’s a dark, honest sequence, and one that seems to be leading to a deeper comment about how people who are victims of trauma can sometimes inflict trauma on others, the abused becoming the abusers, etc. Hart,” whose real name is Sharon Davis, actually begs Wanda to kill her rather than force her to go on as a sitcom character with no will of her own. There’s a terrific moment midway through where Agatha frees the minds of Wanda’s many victims, who are then allowed to talk about the trauma she has put each of them through.
(*) Wanda later describes the Vision she created as “the piece of the Mind Stone that lives in me,” and in hindsight it makes some vague amount of sense that he would thus be able to un-brainwash Norm and other people he encountered along the way.īut the emotional end of things - the part that made WandaVision feel special - mostly felt lacking. And Wanda proves a quick study by using Agatha’s speech about runes to turn the walls of the Hex itself into a way to steal Agatha’s powers and transform her full-time into Agnes the nosy neighbor. Good Vision traps Evil Vision in a philosophical logic loop, then uses his magic fingers(*) to unlock all of his body’s old memories, sending the ghostly, now potentially good again, Vision flying away until he’s next needed in an MCU project. It was satisfying that both our heroes won using brain rather than brawn.

But where so much of the series leading to this point felt like a passion project for all involved, too much of the conclusion felt obligatory, as if the mandate was to return to formula and ensure that Wanda and Monica Rambeau are ready for their upcoming appearances in, respectively, the next Doctor Strange and Captain Marvel movies. “The Series Finale” is … fine? It looks good, and it has some nice emotional moments.

But with a few exceptions - mostly the four Avengers films, plus the first Ant-Man - the final fight scene is almost never what you walk out of an MCU film thinking about.
