Some extremely bitter fans on here bringing the reviews down, I assume they were ready to give it 1 star before it even aired.
I am a huge LOTR fan myself and always have been. I have been extremely pessimistic since I heard this adaption was being made that it would be bitterly disappointing. After watching two episodes I am so happy to have been surprised by utter enjoyment instead! The visuals/music are incredible and yes it’s been a slow build up, but that is standard in most series and give it a few more episodes, I am sure all the character development will be on point. Galadriel as a warrior is epic despite all the fears from fans leading up to this release. All in all, super excited to see what the future holds and I’m just happy to be back experiencing the Middle Earth world again after such a long time!!
