I can still remember those gigantic monster movies when long ago. Creators like Godzilla, Kong, krakens, dragons, dinosaurs, etc. This time the backdrop has been changed to Scandinavia. And then everything is so predictable. I didn't have any excitement when I watched it, yet I would say it's ok to kill some time when I was padding my dog to sleep.
BTW: The trolls don't look monstrous at all. The production team really should resign them.

Honestly speaking I wont say it has something original. Everything has been so familiar. But the synergy is impressively great, making it so entertaining to watch for hours. You ve got the fantacy, the romance, the action and the best sword fighting in a package. Speaking of which, the sword fighting part is the best I ve every watched on Netflix. They ve paid so much effort in it, very very obviously.
Yet I would say it is impossible to be a perfect one. Plot holes are simply everywhere. Right from the beginning til the last minute's fighting scene. With regard to that I must deduce one star from 10. I give it 9/10.
Btw, story and character settings are quite typical. Seems the crew couldnt think out of the box. Or they dared not challenge the commercial formulae? I expect some terrific twists in season 2.
As a conclusion I have confidence for this series, coz simply no other European or American series can even come close to it in sword fighting. Not even one.
