Usually I don't write reviews for shows like strange new worlds, but this episode was quite different than the others. For once, writing was actually good and it wasn't slacking like it did on other Star Trek episodes or series. Another thing I would like to comment on is acting. Acting has improved this season and finally the series feels like a good production instead of a cheap comedy show. Direction was also good, the scenes were beautiful and unique as well. No more of that boring, cheap CGI exotic utopia or 80's themed starship of the 24th century.

However there is a slight issue that they need to address somehow: The camera. It is shaking in so many parts of the episode. It's like the cameraman has Parkinson or is trying to hide their laugh. Personally, it's quite annoying, trying to focus on the actors because the camera is vibrating for a big part of the episode.

9.2/10.

So this is how it ends. Well, I could join the trend and go on a rant about how D&D ruined the series, but I got better things to do.

Yes, the script was rushed. Yes, bad writing started from early Season 7 when the "End Game of Thrones within two Seasons instead of Six" plan was put on course. But let's put that stuff behind and focus on other highlights of the series finale.

(Writing was undeniably a 2/10). There where some good moments like the Iron Throne scene with the destruction of the Throne and Dany the Tyrant's fate. Brienne of Tarth writing down Jamie's story. And the final scene was good as well. Continuity of the storyline was a total zero. So lets sum it ip. 2+0=2, 2/2= 1/10 (40%)

The score was legendary. 10/10. Respect to the creators. (10%)

VFX effects were really beautiful. 8.5/10. It needs some improvement even though they did a huge improvement this season. (15%)

Acting was very well even though there were some dull moments. 9.2/10 (20%)

And finally, direction and camera shot was an 9/10 (15%)

Taking all of the above into account we get the following vote.

1/10 (40%) 10/10 (10%) 8.5/10 (15%) 9.2/10 (20%) 9/10 (15%)

The total 5.825/10. Rounding it up to 5/10 because it is the series finale and it doesn't deserve anything above 5.

So I guess that's it. Let's go watch House of the Dragon.

PS: Turns out I did go on a rant about how writing ruined the series finale and the series in general after all. I call it the D&D effect.

After years of rewatching Dark and being amazed by it's perfection, the new breathtaking series is finally here. Upon watching the first episode I quickly fell in love with the storyline and the actors. I love the fact that there are many foreigners on the ship which means lots of languages. I also adore the soundtracks; they remind me so much of Dark but they sound corrupted. Direction and the scenes are wonderful. Acting is above adequate level but it's too early to be a judge of that. Though I cannot really say there is lot of action that keeps you on the edge of your seat. Same again, it's too early to say anything.

So, summing up, we have

Writing 19.2/20 Direction 19.6/20 Acting 18.6/20 Graphics and Scenes 19/20 Plot and Action 17/20.

93.4/100.
