Rings of Power Episode 1 - HONEST REVIEW | Lord of the Rings on Prime

Описание: Hello friends and foes of Middle-earth and welcome to this first breakdown of Amazon's Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power Episode 1. In this review I'll go through some of the worst things in the episode and talk about some of the many issues this series has. At the end I'll give scores for various elements like story, lore, cinematography, dialogue, acting etc.

As many of you know, I was not that optimistic about the show and many of my fears were confirmed as The Rings of Power seem more like a fanfiction than a faithful adaptation of Tolkien's works. One thing that surprised me though, is how boring the Rings of power is. For the first time in my life I found Middle-earth boring... Watch the whole video and perhaps you'll understand why!

[!SPOILERS!]
In this video we will discuss Galadriel's voice over, when she's a child in Valinor and her brother Finrod's advice to her. The dialogue could be better and they seem to forget to name characters.
Finrod is killed by Sauron and Galadriel starts her personal vendetta to find Sauron and kill him - not the most interesting plot (but it gets worse).
Her story is interrupted by annoying Harfoots - not hobbits, but Harfoots. They are childish, weird and in many ways very different from the hobbits we know from The Lord of the Rings trilogy.
The third story line follows the silvan elf Arondir stationed in 'The Southlands', an early name for Mordor. Here he keeps an eye on the local humans, whose ancestors served Morgoth.

As you probably can imagine it's not the most interesting or dramatic storylines to follow. I'll try and dive into some of the issues and even suggest how one scene with the cow could have been improved.

Thank you all for watching it's such a blessing to have to many fans of the channel! Bless you all! 🙏
