The prequel to the Lord of the Rings trilogy was released in the first days of September 2022. I, like many others, had been waiting for it... and I have to say that I was disappointed. Episode 1 was really slow. I almost fell asleep watching it! I still made an effort to watch the second episode, which was slightly better. And hesitated a long time before watching the third aired episode. This one caught my interest as the rhythm of the story started to pick up. Another 5 episodes will be broadcasted weekly, with episode 4 expected in the next 48 hours. So far, the music, and the costumes, conjure the films of Peter Jackson. Let's see whether the characters will get going. Enjoy the show!
