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 2. In this review I'll go through some of the worst things in the second 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 fan-fiction 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 try and go through episode 2 in a chronological order. We will discuss the Harfoots slightly, but mostly talk about Ost-in-Edhil in Eregion, the many rights issues this series face. I think Khazad-dûm looked quite good and it was interesting to see how the show tried to dive deeper into the dwarven culture like referencing to Aulë - I still think there were some issues though.
The sea monster was a nice touch, but the corsair reference almost made me leave the couch, when I watched the episode.
[!SPOILERS!]
Please keep in mind that is review of The Rings of Power Episode 2, only reflects my own opinion and feelings towards the episode. You are free to feel differently, but maybe we could do without all the insults and threats in the comments? Thank you!
