MARVEL AGENTS OF S.H.I.E.L.D. – My rating: 7.5/10

Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. struck me as somewhat amateurish.  The stories are good, the acting is good so what else could be the problem?  I’ve finally figured out what’s wrong.  It’s the direction and the music.  Transitions between scenes sometimes seem slow and totally unconvincing, like an after thought.  The music also sounds corny, like it belongs in a children’s cartoon with toy guns.  It’s almost reminds me of children’s play acting.  The wrong music can really spoil a production.  This is truly difficult to verbalize.  I watch Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.  regulary because it’s a good series that needs better direction.  If how to rid the show of it’s hesitant transitions and overall corniness, plus use better music, it would be an instant hit.  The S.H.I.E.L.D. team is dedicated to finding and helping individuals with extraordinary powers while protecting the world from the super powers of those gone bad.  The main team consist of 2 scienctist (Leo Fitz and Jemma Simmons), 1 highly skilled fighter agent (Grant Ward), an action super star fighter with powers we haven’t yet seen (Ming-Na), a super hacker, computer and communications expert (Skye), and a highly dedicated S.H.I.E.L.D. leader (Phil Caulson).  The team lives on a plane that has everything one could want to do their job.  Each week the S.H.I.E.L.D. team goes out on missions saving the world.  I think as time goes on, Agents of SHIELD will get better.  One can only hope.  Marvel Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. airs on ABC.
