It centers around an egomaniacal supervillain with a really big head and a really little body, who struggles to maintain control of his evil organization and his demanding family.
The voices and pell-mell references are the biggest reason why a 10-episode weekend binge of Marvel's MODOK amounted to such easy, quickly digested entertainment.
I never thought I'd say this, but M.O.D.O.K has somehow developed into one of my favourite Marvel characters and I can't wait to see where he goes next.
Marvel's M.O.D.O.K. has many good chunks of comedy, making it easy entertainment and doing just enough to extend our imagination within the Marvel realms.
The animation technique underscores the mandate to think outside the box, which should generally be applauded. That said, even in the world of supervillains designed for killing, just because you can doesn't always mean that you should.
M.O.D.O.K. is an outlier among the many Marvel TV and movie properties - and that's a good thing...It is weird and ridiculous and an absolute delight, the sort of show that might not be for you, but if you dig it, well ... you will DIG IT.
M.O.D.O.K. sometimes falls flat on its face in its efforts to switch from being ludicrous to poignant and sincere. But again, Oswalt, Blum and their many collaborators have crafted an enjoyably peculiar sandbox to play in.
M.O.D.O.K. takes the tried and true Marvel formula, rips it up, eats it, and vomits it back up in a series that is delightfully over-the-top, incredibly silly, shockingly vulgar, and somehow truly emotional.
M.O.D.O.K. isn't as sharply written as The Venture Bros., but it aspires to that same zany mix of sitcom and satire, centered on a pathetic, unsympathetic protagonist.
Some of the episodes are more forgettable than others, but it has a consistent cleverness that makes its flaws easy to overlook, especially when the lines are delivered by such talented voice actors.
