Chief of War

I'm stuck on this show, 3 episodes in and I'm sold on this. Jason kills this one again. My only issue so far is how fast he learnt English but I also like the fact that there is no time for BS, they really mean business. If you liked vikings and the likes you will certainly love this, it's fast paced and filled with reasonable action and also has a very good story.

Ignore the half wits that don't do subtitles, it's their loss. As a historical drama it works really well and pays plenty of respect to the indigenous people of the Hawaii's, the language only serves to add the feel of authenticity.

The story is a little clunky at times but it keeps you engaged and the the look of it is luscious. I for one enjoyed it.

Chief of War is finally here and it has not disappointed. I've been waiting and looking forward to this ever since I first heard about it. Then I saw the trailers and my excitement grew even more. I love these types of shows and movies and I'm a big fan of Jason Momoa. He's had a lot of memorable parts in his career and this is among his best yet. It's such an original story of Hawaiian history that's never been told before. You can tell Momoa but a lot of love into this project. There isn't a dull or boring scene in the entire series. The only bad thing is all the episodes aren't released at the same time because this would be best watched as a binge. Apple TV has hit home run after home run. It reminds me of peak HBO when almost every show they put out is a must watch. I can't recommend this show enough.

The film starts strong, with an engaging story and a great atmosphere that pulls you in right away. The action sequences are fun, and the overall pacing keeps things enjoyable from start to finish.

That said, Jason Momoa still carries his familiar on-screen persona. While his charisma is undeniable, it sometimes makes it harder for me to fully see the character rather than the actor. It's still a solid and entertaining movie, but for me, that extra layer of immersion was a bit harder to find.

To those complaining about the language and subs - you do realise that not everyone in this world speaks English..? That there are many different languages? Have you not ever watched foreign movie? JC. My mother is 75 and watches everything in original with subtitles. If you can't manage then it's not the series problem. This is beautifully narrated and filmed story so far. Kudos to all actors.
