Fantastic. Gorgeous scenery, sumptuous costumes, terrific acting. It conveys heroism and the quality of inner light, without politics changing it to something unrealistic.
I’m not a strict Tolkien fan, I’m into this series for it’s heroism, inspiration and beauty and it totally delivers. I could go on ad infinitum, it’s stunning…and an extremely rare treat. So often a series starts off with an interesting plot, great visuals, and superb acting but then nosedives into a psychological tar pit.
I’m particularly fond of the elves, they convey considerably more elevated and otherworldly qualities than the elves in Lord of the Rings.
It’s difficult to portray a species more ethereal
than humans but most of the actors are doing a great job.
It would be wonderful if there were more series like this…
I can’t wait for the next episode!
