    Should be epic, but currently just ok

    They are taking a waaaay too deep look into some of the characters life. The characters are getting really emotional , kind of bad acting. We don't care about all that. Show me master chief taking out aliens non stop. Bring on the action, less drama. If your going to do drama make it good, this gets too boring.

    The scene of the chick taking off her clothes seemed weird, anyone else get a weird vibe ?

    I kind of hate the storyline already.

    Hope things get better moving forward.

    Slower but good one

    Visually Halo is a masterpiece. The asteroid city is nothing I have seen before and the "rail / cable car" ride reminded me of the good old Indiana Jones. The story is building up, new characters are introduced. This time it is more talking than doing, and I am ok with it for one episode, and next week I expect some good SF combat again.

    Very well done

    A big improvement on episode 1.

    This included some depth into the characters that haven't been seen before in Halo and is not cringe. It actually starts to make a bit of sense why master chief is who he is. There's no action but dialogue and screenplay is 100x better than first episode. I was doubtful but now I am so excited for the rest of the series.

    Why this hate ?

    I dont understand why everyone hated it on first episode ? I believe it goes as a really good space show so far. This episode better than first one. I hope it goes better with each episode.

    Great scify with lovely visuals

    Another really good episode. Not as action packed as the first one, and more of a transport exposition episode which we need to have in order to know what is going on and to expand upon this world.

    As in the first episode the visuals and computer animations are great, we get to see more aliens, more cool stuff, more cool places.

    I still reserve a bit of hesitation due to the acting not being 100%, especially from the asiatic girl who's line delivery reminds me of a brick wall. I also feel that they are trying to make this too much into a political "The Expanse" variant. I think it is great that they tell us what is going on and who the players are and why we should care, but I do not think that is why people watch this show. The Expanse got away with it because it was the core of that show and they had actors and source material to tap into. Halo is more of a shoot, blow things up, kill aliens story and they should keep to that strength.

    But this is still giving me great vibes and so far so good. A weak 8/10, let us now move on from exposition and get to more action please.
