Although it lasts almost 50 minutes, it felt like a 20 minute Halloween commercial.
I don't mind an innocuous entry into the MCU.. but as a piece of content you pay for (Disney+) that serves as an introduction to Marvel Monsters, its rather dull! Even more so considering all the praise I've seen for it around. Granted, it is visually appealing in parts, and the production (sets, clothing, some effects) is okay. What "Werewolf by Night" gives you, is a cast of promising and interesting-looking Monster Hunters that.. all die along the cannon fodder (of random guardsmen) without so much as a glance. It's a short story of characters that fail to be memorable to anyone but comic-book fans. As a positive, it doesn't annoy or overstay its welcome, but doesn't add anything to the worldbuilding that you haven't seen before elsewhere.
Sometimes I wonder, what is the point of these..
