Partings

I am done with this show . They have spent years & years hyping up the public by saying this was going to be mind blowing, exciting at every level & showing off those digits spent on a humongous project. Yet NOTHING exciting has happened in the first 5 episode (maybe just the very first 10 minutes which they have hooked me up with on that). I had to stop the episode 4 times because it is incredibly slow & I get distracted very easily because of the useless & boring speeches the characters have during the whole hour & more (rewinding to parts of conversation I've lost turned out to be a waste of time). WHERE IS THE ACTION? It's talking, talking over & over. The storyline is very confused, there are too way many characters who could be easily cut out, the acting is poor.

It had to potential to be one of the greatest series ever, but it turns out to be the most delusional series of all time.

I have already written this show off as a hack job, but I can't help but want to see how bad it gets. The issue is it's so bad, so boring, that Im floundering even doing that.

Please, for the love of god, fire these writers before season 2, you can still save this show!!!!!!!

Galadrial is unbelievably insufferable, she has no struggles what so ever, shes the best at everything, she can defeat every obstacle with absolute ease - this is terrible writing. Only high school kids would write a character that 1 dimensional. That fight they had was unbelievably cringe.

Why are the definitely not hobits always mentioning their feet? They never went on about it in the actual LotR. When they had an opportunity to have some great action, again deux ex machina- any writer that relies on such a troupe is not a writer, they are amateurs.

The legolas rip off guy should have kept his mouth shut as the guy cant act to save his life.

We all know who Sauron is, your efforts at subversion has failed.

THE SEA IS ALWAYS RIGHT.

When? And how long ?

When will this show ever become soo enticing that I will stop skipping 10seconds forward few times in each episode? No, I am not missing anything during these moments, rather I am saving my soul from crushing thought of how 700mln$ was wasted to film this?

My whole house lights so brightly every time they show Galadriel and Numenor, my neighbors might be thinking we are having a short circuit. Every episode gets brighter and brighter even if darkness encircles Middle Earth.

Oh God, Morfydd's expressions are killing me. Smiling, smirking, crying? Cant differentiate. Couldn't find a spot for Cate Blanchett in that 700mln$ budget?

Few episodes left, I have lost all my hope. Time to bow to Sauron.

Ep5 of Rings of Power is pretty much the exact same as the previous episodes. Average. For the most expensive TV show in history, it really does severely lack in writing and acting. This is the most boring episode so far, even though it does have some good moments;

Elrond and Druin are the best characters, they have a great on screen friendship that reminds me a little of Legolas and Gimli, they have great banter and ever scene with them in it, is the highlight. Even though Galadriel is dull and boring, I enjoyed the little sparring scene where she actually showed a different emotion other than frown - joy and playfullness. It was a good scene. The scenes with the Harfoots was ok I guess, nothing special as with the scenes in the Tower.

I know many people have compared this show with House of the Dragon, I can't help but do so to. We are also 5 episodes into that show, and yet we have fallen in love with the charcaters, and care about the story. Here, everything is just dull. There are no stakes, no tension, and no care for anyone the TV show wants us to care about. EP5: Partings is just the same old slow story with little happening. I don't think the show is bad, by any means, some of the bad reviews are a bit extreme. But I am keepiing my hopes up, that the show will improve, since Middle-earth is one of the greatest fictional places ever created.

C'mon creators and writers, you can do better than this.

This episode is the worst so far by a stretch, it's as if the producers believe that this series can't fail but it's been very hit and miss so far this first season. This episode is quite boring lots of talking and not much happening and the music is very dramatically overlayed over generic underwhelming scenes. PRODUCERS Game of Thrones was much betterthan this expensive bore. I can tell this series is building upto a big event but there isnt much impact from the intended scenes, some the actors are poorly picked in my opinionand let down the talented members of the cast, this show needs to grow up or its doomed im sorry to say.
