Halo: Reckoning (2022)
Season 1, Episode 5
9/10
Improvement but still too much of what we do not care about
21 April 2022
Still too many "intrigues" and political wrangling which feels out of place and is not sold good enough because the actors can't. Still too much of that side quest with the asian girl not a single person in the galaxy care about. And still too much of trying to build a backstory which is not necessary.

And up until the end it was too little of war... but we got some of that.

With those objections out of the way this was still an excellent episode which actually moved the plot forward, and I got the feeling that this 4 episode transport to where we want to go is almost over. We finally also got some action, and with this excellent CGi and great visuals the show is showing its true colours.

Still a bit to go, but this was a step up. 8/10.
