What a pile of garbage. This has to be the worst remake arguably of all time. In terms of COMPLETELY failing to capture even a spec of the original charm, this movie is shockingly terrible in that way. It kind of leaves you speechless a bit, cause it just seems so impossible to literally have a source material, that is brilliant and beloved, to work off of and use NONE of it. I'm annoyed I have to give it even 1 star, this isn't even half a star, this is a soulless cash grab. The irony being that it probably lost millions, complete trash and a waste of time. I had to watch the original immediately after to cleanse my soul from this wicked, vile, new age Disney sludge. I get it Disney, you want all that China gravy in and around your mouth, but man how much are you willing to lose to get it? Somehow embarrassed yourself even worse in 2023 too!

As a league player this is a masterpiece, it almost makes me want to play the game again, if you have ever been someone addicted to ranked league and recently freed, you would realize how much of a compliment that is. This show is a masterpiece, one of the greatest I have ever seen, animated or not. Please turn this into the animated game of thrones...league has the lore for it, you have the animators and producers for it, PLEASE MAKE IT HAPPEN.

I can't comprehend how anyone could find enjoyment in this show, especially if you have any love for the Jackson trilogy or Tolkien's original work. Beyond that even just going off it's own merit, pretending it's not related to Tolkien at all, it's DREADFUL. My goodness, "the sea is always right", unbelievable cringe dialogue. Rocks sink and ships float, because one looks up and one looks down??? My stepmom who watches the WORST b rated movies and has a blast with just about any media literally begged me to not make her watch episode 3 and on. She was so bored in the first two episodes, the least critical of shows person I know and easiest entertained, that she could not continue watching. Nothing in this show grips you, it's just mystery boxes and minor quest "and then this happens" storytelling. The main character Galadriel is the most insufferable, spiteful, unlikeable protagonist I have ever seen. She's as rough as the gal from Forspoken, and that's saying A LOT. Even as it's own show, which it isn't, this is one of the worst things I've ever seen. I love fantasy, but this is embarrassing, rivaling Witcher blood origins in terms of quality. Full of contrivances, plot holes, lack of scope in land mass, nonsensical decision making, inconsistence characters, and the worst dialogue in recent years for something this well funded. If you have even a minor grasp on Tolkien, or loved the Peter Jackson trilogy, this is a travesty. If you are someone who somehow liked this show, I would like to discuss with you what was to like about it, because I'm genuinely at a loss. How has quality fallen this far, with this much money to boot!?

It has it's flaws, but this is the greatest live action adaptation ever, PERIOD. I was 100% convinced it would be garbage, and they managed to blow me away. I love the anime, but they wisely didn't try to do a 1 to 1 like cowboy bepop did. Anime doesn't translate to live action, stop trying. The spirit of One Piece is captured in this show, and while it misses the mark on CGI and perhaps acting sometimes, you can tell they made this with FANS in mind. I genuinely feel appreciated watching this, like the writer/director actually care about my love for the anime. It's so refreshing to see something not plagued with ideology and political messaging. They got me emotionally several times, and they won me over in the last two episodes. This is truly a gem in a medium full of absolute trash. I absolutely love it, and forgive all the areas it fell short. Watch it with an open mind, unlike how I came in, and you will not be disappointed. There's nothing like true friendship, and I finished the last episode feeling GREAT! Despite the tragedies, this is a feel good show.

Absolutely brilliant! Horrific reality of child trafficking exposed in an absolute 10/10 film. The acting across the board is INCREDIBLE, even the child actors turn up with a great performance. You. Will. Cry. Don't waste another second, get out there and watch this movie ASAP. Ignore the mainstream media trying to tie this movie in with "far right" ideology. They are just mad that a great movie is exposing the infestation of pedophiles in Hollywood and every major media outlet. The idea that "God's children are not for sale" could be twisted to be alt-right Christian propaganda is INSANITY. Atheist or faith based people who DON'T want to protect pedophiles, and save children from them, all agree that children are NOT for sale.
