bad pacing. very bad editing.
originaliko1 March 2016
I really liked the books and like the TV show enough so far to keep watching it, but man is this episode bad. I understand that adapting a book is not easy task and that budget can be limited, but the whole travel to Antarctica and the foxes scene at the end are so short compared to the book ! And the editing is bad. I don't normally notice it and it wasn't very good in previous episode but here it's very noticeable. You go from one character, on story to the next without any rhythm. There's steep cuts mere milliseconds after a sentence, you don't have the time to breath. They tried to stuff to much in one episode and the result is not good at all.
