Who is this fake non cannon silver timeline for? Not Gamer Halo fans and normies don't even care for this. Three generations in my family have played Halo games together. Seriously back off to watch Halo 4 Forward Unto Dawn again for qualityWho is this fake non cannon silver timeline for? Not Gamer Halo fans and normies don't even care for this. Three generations in my family have played Halo games together. Seriously back off to watch Halo 4 Forward Unto Dawn again for quality live action Halo. That had an ace lore depiction of Master Chief/Spartans. With compelling characters with all the diversity and none of the woke. Oh and it all ties into the games not like this dumb silver timeline. Newsflash creators series like this are supposed to be one big Advert for the game franchise. Good luck with this else world tale appeasing old Halo gamer fans and just confusing potential new Halo gamer fans. Vader, Dredd and V for Vendetta actors emoted fine with a mask/helmet on. Master Chief helmet off is the biggest mistake ever.… Expand

But I really like how episode 1 went. For the special effects, most of it was great. Like when the kids were vaporized looked good. There was that bad shot where Master Chief was jumping and it looked fake but somehow jumping has looked fake in a lot of CGI (remember when Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan jumped down from the grill?). Master Chief's armor looks amazing. But rest of silver squad's armor didn't look as good. I guess they wanted MC to look special.

There is enough unknown and intrigue to want to see where the series goes.

What I'm wondering is if the rest of the series holds up in the look because it's common for a huge budget to be dedicated to the pilot and the rest goes down. Like in Spielberg's Falling Skies which was really expensive in the beginning (when Spielberg was directing) and then when the series was handed off, the budget also dropped.… Expand

As an avid fan of the Halo franchise, games, books figurines, etc. I found this show to be a complete slap in the face to people like me. Not only did it show that the makers didn't play the games but I doubt they read the books carefullyAs an avid fan of the Halo franchise, games, books figurines, etc. I found this show to be a complete slap in the face to people like me. Not only did it show that the makers didn't play the games but I doubt they read the books carefully enough to realise why this franchise is so loved by fans like myself. They have pumped it full of social justice and I can't help but feel like the portrayal of MC is so bastardised that he becomes the Mandalorian with his voice clearly muffled by his helmet, while his actions and decisions are so out of character. And this is just scratching the surface with issues I have on the making of this show, I haven't even gotten to the juicy parts as I don't want to spoil the torture event that will be for any unsuspecting viewer that is a fan. WHY ARE THERE 500 YEAR OLD CHEVIES IN THE SHOW?!

In summary, the show was torture to watch, an hour I will never get back.… Expand

There are some gripes I have but nothing I can’t live with to enjoy the show, I am not a big fan of the face reveal and I hope they show 117 with his helmet on for most the show, nothing against the actor but that’s the thing why with master chief he is a mystery in his own way. We should keep it that way. I do like that we are getting a lot more character development with him tho it’s a great way too look at things. The cgi is great, Other than the Spartans feeling a little light mostly everything else is prettey too Teri. The story like so far is going in a direction I really didn’t see comming, and I don’t love it but I don’t hate it. It has sparked my interest tho and I hope the show keeps its momentum… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. It's just not good. It's subpar acting, subpar CGI (hell the expanse has better CGI and that's from Sci Fi), and every character from the core series, and faction, is changed from their Orginal incarnations. Nothing to do with physical appearances, but with WHO and WHAT the characters/factions.

The Covenant would NEVER have a human. Their entire early belief system is about complete and utter genocide. The fact a human is included is literally a contradiction to who the Covenant is.

The Same goes for the Spartans. The entire point of SII project is stop insurrection. We. Know that, and in the main lore, the Spartans KNOW they were kidnapped. They understand that, but they put it aside because the Covenant don't care and the Covenant is a threat that everyone must unite against. Making Chief go Awol in the middle of the war is idiotic. Chiefs core beliefs are to protect all of humanity whatever the cost. Besides, the only reason he ever goes Awol in the main lore is after decades of battle and years of being with Cortana who changes his views about himself. Plus his alliance withe the Arbiter.

Basically the characters are hollow copies of their true selves and its boring and dull.… Expand

La serie es buena aunque no esté apegada a la historia del juego (nos lo dejaron saber desde un principio lo cual está bien) hay muchas cosas buenas como el sonido de recarga de los escudos de los Spartan, el sonido de camuflaje de los élitesLa serie es buena aunque no esté apegada a la historia del juego (nos lo dejaron saber desde un principio lo cual está bien) hay muchas cosas buenas como el sonido de recarga de los escudos de los Spartan, el sonido de camuflaje de los élites como en HALO CE, referencias como "este túnel no es una formación natural" Incluso los élites hacen su famoso "WORT WORT WORT" hay efectos que si se ven algo mal producidos pero otros que se ven de maravilla. He jugado Halo desde su primer día de lanzamieno con Halo Ce y me encanta esta franquicia. Hay cosas que no me han gustado de Halo en general como el arte en los niveles de HALO 4 y HALO 5 lo cual no me quita el amor al universo de Halo. Sabemos que la serie no es ni será una obra maestra pero agradezco que aun tengan en cuenta a Halo a pesar de que salió hace 21 años. Este tipo de contenido hace que halo no quede en el olvido y que tenga su importancia ante el mundo. Hay cosas que debemos aceptar aunque no nos guste si queremos que halo no muera. Como ejemplo a mi no me gusta para nada y detesto las orejas de gato en Halo Infinite pero entiendo que hay personas más jóvenes a quienes si les gusta, ellos darán vida a la franquicia y dinero, así que si hay gente jugando y viendo cualquier sere de la misma, habrá halo para mucho tiempo. En conclusión, la serie es bastante decente.… Expand

Master Chief has always been a mysterious hero who was never shown without a helmet and only showed his childhood images. so to screw up the movie on the first episode, it's necessary to wait. it is immediately clear that the series was made by incompetent people who do not even know the universe and the plot. it's just a shame!!!

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. If you grew up loving this series be prepared for disappointment. This had the potential to be great, producers were giver the opportunity to make it great, and they flew it into the ground like Captain Keyes did The Pillar of Autumn. I can only hope that the rest of it doesn't end up like The Pillar. It starts off with a almost exclusively non-white female dominant casting with a few whites thrown in to not seem racist. This Star Wars 7 spacer brat is not only lucky, but able to outrun 20 elite's AFTER her 5 friends are picked of brutally with plasma fire within seconds while she manages to send off a flare to signal to her people. They get torn to shreds in some great CGI. The Elite's rip the insurgents to pieces and then the Spartans come in and you expect it to get good. So it does for a bit but then some continuity starts popping up, heavy machine guns used by the humans are useless but as soon as a Spartan grabs it now it has power. They wreak the Elite's in typical Spartan fashion managing to save our now even luckier space rat. After the Chief and Spartans walk away from the lone survivor they make their way to the main continuity mess up. These Spartans we know to be children told an elaborate lie and given a goal to be humanity's heros are no more then literal BRAINWASHED super soldiers. Flash over to the Covenant who have been eradicating the humans like Hitler did the Jews, now have a young white human as a "Blessed One" and seen as an equal or even greater then the High Prophets. Not only is she fluent in their language and refuses to teach them anything in human dialects, she gives them advice on how to deal with humans. Right back to the UNSC where the casting for the Keyes Family, a military proud, to the letter, respectful family is replaced with a Jacob Keyes who doesn't care for military procedure with beards and regulation buzz cuts, he is a wuss and can barely stand up to his strongly opinionated daughter about disposing of the brat. This same child who would rather lie about aliens killing her whole settlement and blame it on her savior's because of a grudge regarding her mother's death. This brat then gets thru to John somehow and he starts to go rogue since these old repressed memories sparked up completely disregarding his Motherish like figure Dr. Halsey ordered him not to. The head honcho of the UNSC is of course a woman, orders him brought back and the girl killed so now John has to save himself and the girl. Doing so he is then "threatened" by this girl and I say that because she just picks up his rifle while he is still fully armoured. He tells her it won't even dent his armour then proceeds to humanize himself by removing the helmet. This is a huge no-no but the actor did a great job playing Sierra-117 and although a bit more cold then the real deal he does great. They keep the helmet off for the rest of show. Overall, it has absolutely nothing to do with Halo other then the rights to use the characters. The steaming hot turd they call a story completely built on messages throw at you deliberately and under the radar while making up their own lies to tell this story. The casting was inclusive while being exclusively almost non white. CGI was great for the elite's but simple things are overlooked. The spacer girl is Jesus like with her luck of avoiding death while being indignant, ungrateful, disrespectful and a life coach to the Chief. The Keyes Family was casted for their skin color, nothing to do with how well they portray the actual character. Covenant hail some white human and while she learns more about them, she gives nothing back. So in the end, I won't even give this a mark. I didn't pay for it so I don't feel like I wasted my money but don't go outta your way to watch it immediately. Feel free to watch it never or if you just wanna watch an attempt at shoving the message down your throat while messing with a well developed universe still watch something else.Ive watched the second now and it is worse then the first episode. Been told about the third and I now give up on these producers. The white girl with the Covenant is not only able to operate a Covenant ship like an AI but she also wields the flood like a pet. Or at least I think it's the flood since of course the producers didn't read or play or watch anything that came before. This show is **** and the creates of this atrocious waste of money should be skinned alive and strung up by their ham strings, beaten like a pinata and left out for the crows to pick at.… Expand

After suffering through the entire first season, my opinion has changed drastically. The special effects are great. Actors for the most part are great. But whoever is in charge of writing for this show needs to be let go. Even if this didn't have the Halo name attached to it, it's just bad TV in general. I was all on board with creative liberties. I knew they couldn't just "do the games". But oh my gosh did they bastardize and completely disrespect the source material. The ONLY character they did right was Dr. Halsey. Cortana was great as far as acting goes, but the writers didn't do her any favors. With so many great stories out there to tell from the source material, it's insulting this is what we fans got after waiting for so long. This show is just plain bad TV, and utter trash as a Halo story adaptation. I will not be back for season 2.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This is just awful and as far as I’m concerned this doesn’t exist ugh why. Master chief looks like a clown with that big A nose I mean really he looks like the guy at your local Costco threw on some space armor and was like hello I’m here everybody no experience but I’m gonna save the galaxy frickin clownin out here. Don't even get me started on his voice not even close did they bother to even listen to how he sounds oh but he’s a younger version well if that’s chief young I guess they decided to grow his testicles back later. Just please don’t watch and support this. Can someone explain why in this time and generation we are in they’re just ruining so many great franchises because they want to be politically correct/woke or whatever stupid nonsense peoples mentality’s are these days.… Expand

Logical holes, the lack of a clear motivation of the central characters, inexplicable deus ex machines. The vast majority of the scenes are so badly written that they make you want to facepalm yourself to bad injuries.
The sets and special effects are overwhelmingly cheap and poorly designed that it looks like they were made by a first-year student.
And all this is only in the first episode of the series. If the creators could not set the quality bar in the first series, then it will only get worse.
The only thing the show could be praised for is the design of the aliens and Spartan armor.
Other than that, don't waste your time watching this show. Especially if you love Halo.… Expand

Este primer episodio en mi opinión es una completa BASURA, perdió toda la escencia de los juegos, la historia contada es mediocre, el CGI es de baja calidad, las actuaciones dejan mucho que desear y el ambiente esta muy mal acoplado a lo que debería de ser una serie de esta franquicia. Lo único rescatable es que respetaron las voces originales de los videojuegos.… Expand

I had to leave the room because I cannot STAND HER! This Master Chief is not Master Chief. He's Joe 711 Master Cheeks. He is butchered. They have no idea how awesome he is in the game. And there is no reason to add the Covenant Girl. We do not need a romance story for Master Chief. And in episode 9, WHY DID NO ONE SHOOT THE PROPHETS!? Who is the show even for? It's not for me and the Halo fans. I bet it's for p*rn addicts. I'll say this story is written by WATTPAD USERS. This is not a fan fic. Not even close. Fan fics are made by fans. But these idiots openly admit it and proudly state that they did not play the god damn games. Okay, my rant is over. The action is good, which shows how strong the Spartans are. And the acting is pretty good. Please don't hate on them. Hate on the writers. But once again, WHAT ARE YOU THINKING!? Seriously? What is the actual **** is wrong with you Paramount? 343, I didn't expect that you would allow something that is even worse than Halo 5. You humanized Master Chief well in Halo 4 and Infinite. The art style is good when it comes to weapons and armor. But one thing that bugs me is the inconsistency. Like there were a group of marines surrounding Halsey, then when Kai runs in, they disappear? And the pistols the marines used when Makee attacked them. Why don't they have the magnums?… Expand

This is the worst thing they've ever done with Halo it's almost like the people behind this show wrote an entirely different show and just slapped the name Halo on it the plot makes no sense and it feels nothing like Halo at all.

This might be one of the most bizarre shows I've ever watched, as things just happen and they don't make sense and the story keeps going. The visuals are good, but the acting is only alright throughout and the writing is just appalling. If watched by a Halo fan it'll seem disrespectful and make no sense based on what we know. If a non-Halo fan watches it... well I hope they rewatch episodes to understand anything. This is just a slog of a film that really should've (and could've been better).

Also, why did they make Captain Keyes and his daughter black/mixed? If they wanted to have more black characters where is my boy Sergeant Avery Johnson?… Expand
