Critics Consensus

A well-deserved showcase for Samuel L. Jackson, Secret Invasion steadies itself after a somewhat slow start by taking the MCU in a darker, more mature direction.

Technically Secret Invasion is a lead-in to Armor Wars... Even taking that into account, along with the fantastic cast, the entire series is defined and dogged by a lack of necessity.

The Australian

Secret Invasion is the epitome of the Marvel TV and film franchise. Even an armed chase through the streets of Moscow seems stunted, fake and without life.

Kingsley Ben-Adir makes for a charismatic lead villain, while Emilia Clarke is terrific as Talos’ daughter.

Rated: 3.5/4

If you're expecting high action, you might be a little let down as we being. I'll give it a C+ for now and hold a wait-and-see attitude.

Firstpost

After a self-imposed exile in space, super-spy Nick Fury (Samuel L. Jackson) is back, but not with a bang.

Starts off with lots of potential, but ends up being one of Marvel's most disappointing shows to date. Great performances, such as Ben Mendelsohn's, are wasted in a scrambled story without thrills. [Full review in Spanish]

Rated: 2/5

JB .

The fact they took one of the most iconic comic book events and turned it into this travesty of a show is such a waste... what should have been a multi-part movie has been reduced to a badly written, poorly adapted, bad CGI show... what a shame

A massive waste of time. If you're a die hard Nick Fury and/or Sam Jackson fan then this might be for you, but for anyone else: don't bother.

It's so bleak and unengaging that most people won't even remember a single thing after they watch the series. Nick Fury's entire arc is exactly the same as the time he got scratched by the cat in Captain Marvel - although SLJ does the best of what he's given. Every actor is wasted as much as possible. Characters are killed for no reason than a desperate attempt to make you feel like you have to watch the next episode. Gravik is actually a solid antagonist, and would have been good in a much superior product. Fury's wife is shoehorned in for no reason, and has little to no connection to the story. And I don't even remember that stupid spy lady's name. The ending is the worst in Marvel history, being the cheapest and most unengaging way to end a show.

I have no idea why so many people didn't like this series. It not only gave insight as to how the blip affected Fury, but also some back story on the Skrull's, surprise's like Ross as well as leaving us with about a million Skrull's walking around Earth. I feel that this serie's delivered and people have been unjustly negative.
