Some of the first reactions and reviews of Disney+’s Loki have hit social media. So, let’s take a look at what people are saying about Marvel Studios’ latest television series.
Saw the first episodes of #Loki and guys, you got another hit @MarvelStudios series on your hands. Love the new story that weaves very well into Loki’s disappearance in Endgame. And Owen Wilson is BACK. pic.twitter.com/Nf3qqsRXWz

#Loki is on another level, probably the best opening out of the Marvel Disney+ series’. @iamkateherron and @michaelwaldron have crafted something very special from a storytelling and visual standpoint! pic.twitter.com/EHooBbTm5n

The first two episodes of #Loki are very cool. I love the retro-future look and they do a strong job of getting into who Loki is and his frequent heel/face turns. His history within the MCU is important even as the show also lets him bounce of a fun new group of characters.

I don’t really know where to start praising #Loki, so I’ll just say it’s IMO the strongest opening for a Disney+ show to date, the writing and directing are on another level. Shoutout to @iamkateherron, @michaelwaldron and @twhiddleston for continuing to push the bar in the MCU. pic.twitter.com/i55dVQKng2

#LOKI is unpredictable in ways that I feel were lacking in Disney+'s other MCU shows. It doesn't waste time dragging out big reveals, leaving plenty of room for more and making it nearly impossible to telegraph what's coming next. We're all just along for the wild, glorious ride.

Tom Hiddleston and Owen Wilson are glorious together.
Hiddleston brings every bit of cunning charm back to Loki.
Wilson is surprisingly delightful in the MCU. That classic soft confidence makes his Mobius a blast to watch.
These two together are just great. #Loki pic.twitter.com/XwXbuW4nam

I watched the first TWO episodes of #Loki and if you loved the social media experience of #WandaVision, you’re in for a treat.
When you hit as many home runs as the #MCU does, you can take big swings & that’s what this show is. #Loki feels grounded, but the scale is massive! pic.twitter.com/zcnVg8ZNi1

I've seen the first 2 episodes of #Loki & I'm LOVING it so far. It's a time-traveling detective show that's laying groundwork for the MCU multiverse while also being about identity & confronting ugly truths about ourselves. The Tom Hiddleston/Owen Wilson bromance is my favorite pic.twitter.com/w9yLLHGEHJ

A funny (not-real) reaction to Loki:
I have seen the first two eps of #LOKI and WOW are fans are in for a treat. With episodes set in the swinging 60s and at the late-2002 wrap party for HOLES, you get a real sense that this show can go ANYWHERE and be ANYTHING. Feels like the future of the MCU

It’s so fun watching #Loki step into entirely new roles for the character – from a Time Variance Authority operative to a political candidate to director Andrew Davis at the wrap party for Disney’s 2003 hit HOLES – this show is catnip for fans who’ve been watching Loki grow
