REVIEW: The Falcon and the Winter Solider – Episode 3 “Power Broker”
The Falcon and the Winter Soldier is now officially halfway done, and the third episode, “Power Broker,” makes one thing abundantly clear: the people behind this show don’t care. It’s lazy, poorly plotted, flies in the face of MCU history, does potentially cool things for no purpose (which s...
