    You ever notice that every character is the same? From simply a dialogue perspective, nearly every character is an overly-confident blockhead - men, women and children alike. I suppose if women were portrayed as totally subjugated as they would've been in that era, HBO would've lost half of the viewership pie.

The scenes are chopped into all these shots, trying to capture artful angles that I found irritating like someone was trying too hard. Gray skies and gloomy moods for hours on end. How do you guys stand it? Expand

    Again, now we know what Benioff and Weiss are capable of, without Martin's books.

    Complete trash show, just a soap opera with lots of swords and penises and **** There's hasn't been any attempt at establishing theme or depth since season 3. The night is dark and full of plot holes!

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The Game Of Revenge is starting to reveal it´s only rule - kill or be killed, there is nothing deep in it, the only interesting part is the way to be killed, unfortunately the most pity way to die came from the most interesting character Lady Olenna - why kill herself, when there is always hope. The most important question - who is the ultimate killer and stands the last - the person who has been killed already I guess. Expand

    Not game of thrones anymore, the last two episode where straight out of a Marvel film.

    Really sad how GoT became hype over substance.

    The crisp editing of the Arya sequence, exploiting dramatic irony right up to the breaking point, was one among numerous scenes that seemed to indicate Thrones isn't just keeping up to its old standards but actually learning new tricks. Another was the introduction of Samwell Tarly's life in Old Town--who knew this show, which has mastered wartime action but had never produced a quickfire sequence quite like this one, with its repetitive chamber pots to be emptied, could be quite this sharp?

    As per every premiere episode of Game of Thrones, the pace is slow. Setting up each new carefully constructed season--the complex weave of story lines, the huge cast, the breathtaking locations--takes time. But Benioff and Weiss have pulled it off once again, if not with a bit more humor than in previous seasons.

    Scenes in the middle of the show with Samwell Tarly (John Bradley) cleaning bedpans and serving soup at the Citadel dragged. ... The show thrills when concentrating on its formidable female characters.
