I know my review won't be as popular, because my view aren't as popular. I'm not a big time book fan that is searching for all the missing things from the books, or twisted scenes from the book that came into the series. So here it goes!
I need to make a comparison with the prequel House of the Dragon, because they came at the same time, they are both prequels to great cinema masterpieces (and books) and they both come from the minds of great writers. Compared to George R. R. Martin's world before the events of Game of Thrones, meaning the House of the Dragon TV Show, The Rings of Power is more grandiose in visuals, but maybe lacking the magic of LOTR that we love.
Now leaving aside House of the Dragon, I'll speak only of The Rings of Power. The grandiose images that we were presented the the LOTR movies are still top quality. The fantastic world presented is still extremely fit for a Tolkien movie, no matter what the die hard fans say. The narrative is very interesting, but I will not get into that to avoid any spoilers. However, storyline is great. The actors are all great, but I must say that Morfydd Clark, Ismael Cruz Cordova, Markella Kavenagh, Nazanin Boniadi, Robert Aramayo, Peter Mullan are perfect fits. The lines and the dialogue are good. I personally don't see anything bad so far. It's been only four episodes so far and I am personally satisfied of the work. And I'm pretty sure that what is best is about to come. Thus... so far, so good!
