The Rings of Power - What do the reviews say?

A new legend began this fall. The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power, was released only on Prime Video on Sept 2, 2022. #LOTRonPrime #LOTR #LOTRROP https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v7v1hIkYH24 What the critics say: Joe Livingston New Yorker Tolkien succeeded in creating a mythic world, one that has now grown vast enough through acts of typological repetition and imitation to conquer television, too. https://www.newyorker.com/culture/on-television/the-rings-of-power-is-true-to-tolkiens-mythmaking-spirit Alvaro Corujo - nostagefright.net 1/5 A series with zero strength, zero interest and lots and lots of filler. The rings of power is a very, very weak series from the very first episodes, with unnecessary plots and completely empty characters, a soporific series. https://www.nostagefright.net/sorpresas-y-decepciones/. (Spanish) Arkhill Aurora Gadgets 360 Oct 14, 2022 In The Lord of the Rings film trilogy, we were witness to the Battle of Helm's Deep five hours in. Five hours into The Rings of Power, we saw the series tread water. https://www.gadgets360.com/entertainment/reviews/lord-rings-power-review-season-1-sauron-gandalf-galadriel-lotr-episode-8-prime-video-3432167 Noah Domiquez CBR.com With its first season having now come to a close, Prime Video's The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power is officially 'Certified Fresh' on Rotten Tomatoes. What the Audience say https://www.rottentomatoes.com/tv/the_lord_of_the_rings_the_rings_of_power/s01/reviews?type=user ★ Could not even watch the first episode. Awful acting, choppy sequences, and insufferable dialogue. The CGI is good, but not enough for me to care for the characters or non-existent story. L ★★★★ While it managed to anger some people for various reasons, I thought it was entertaining. Some of its story telling is a bit 'in your face' and the director phoned it in at some point AM ★ Awful , how is this even having a season 2. Absolute disaster.
