The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power (2022)
Skeptical but yet hopefull started to watch
I just watched the two first episodes and what a mess. I will admit my hopes were not great going in, but out of love for the Tolkien universe I had to give it a fair shot.
I don't like a single character/actor/actress so far. The writing and acting feels really off. I don't care about any of them and they feel empty and generic. I appreciate the beautiful cgi though but is certainly not enough to save it.
I did recognize the watchwarden who played crassus in spartacus and he was really great in that role, in this one (the little I have seen so far) he is not great I certainly didn't buy his mannerism as an elf.
Legion (2017)
A typical fox show - promise but no substance.
I initially thought for some reason that this show was about fallen angels, but up to episode 8 that does not feel like the case.
The show so far is shallow, a bit pretentious and utterly void of substance. Just putting in some weird dreamy scenes and a physic element does not make it unique or appealing it needs to have some sort of cohesiveness.
Constantine (2014)
Constantine goes Crocodile Dundee
I was a fan of what the original movie could have been. Keanu was not as bad as many deemed him to be, however the script of the movie lacked a lot, but I really liked the dark vibe of Constantine.
This show however takes everything that was cool about Constantine - removes it and replaced it with utter rubbish.
The acting is so bad its almost a disgrace considering what we get on television these days. They replaced the darkness of Constantine with extremely low rent attempts of humor. Who decided that the lead should have a weird Australian accent which takes away all the focus of the show.
Come to think of it - perhaps its not so bad to take focus away from the show.
