This show is clearly trying to destroy a masterpiece. Do not waste your time with this, go for the books or the lord of the rings trilogy.

Tolkien's universe tainted by current political agenda. The episodes are boring and very little happens, long scenes about insignificant events just to pass time and super short fighting scenes to spare $.

This is the most expensive acclaimed series in history? It looks like just another generic fantasy series, because there's not much Tolkien in it. Bad to the core. If you are looking for quality go back to the Lord of the Rings triology.

Absolutely awful. This show had the potential to be great, but it is ruined by "modern day standards" and inclusion politics.
This has nothing to do with Tolkien. I hated every second of this show.

“Evil cannot create anything new, they can only corrupt and ruin good forces have invented or made” - JRR Tolkien
- If you loved works of Tolkien such as Lord of the rings - don't watch this, don't ruin your mood.

You are pathetic people trying to impose their own abominations using Tolkien. Despite the hundreds of millions of dollars you've spent and the cutting-edge technology, you've done a terrible job. Because you're idiots devoid of art and logic.

Cultural theft by a corporation. The actor sold their souls, and the fan can see straight through it. Absolute trash series that spits on Tolkien.

It was gorgeous but that is it. The story is a complete dumpster fire, it goes against everything that Tolkien set. It's like they used all that money just to ruin Tolkien's masterpieces.

I expected bad, but this was way worse than bad. Nice CGI, but with that budget they could have spent more on proper filming than video-game graphics

Absolutely disgusting. Cast is untalented, dialogues were written by high school interns. The only positive is cgi.

The worst thing that happened to Tolkien since WW1. A waste of time and resources and a complete lack of respect towards The Professor. The Tolkien Estate should sue Amazon for this.

The only reasonable answer for why this series is so tribble is the series are made by servants of Melkor or orcs of Sauron.
It is Not related to Lord of the Rings or any of Tolkien writings.

This series has nothing to do with Tolkien or his books. This series is filled with political agenda, bad acting, poor plot. Not worth watching.

It may have a high budget, but absolutely nothing from Tolkien, I understand it as a disrespect to the original work. A colossal misrepresentation of the Professor's entire wonderful universe.

This is a slap in the face to Tolkien and his great work. I will admit the scenery look good but that is it. Lazy writing the new characters are boring and what characters the fans know are a shadow of their former selves. This is just sad

No thank you, so far, for me at least, it's like the hobbit trilogy all over again...It's lacking that depth and is covered in CGI.

As a life long fan of Tolkien, his books, the Peter Jackson trilogy, this show destroys the lore of LOTR. If they wanted "inclusion" they could have made a story around the other regions that aren't as fleshed out in Middle Earth.

Visuals are amazing, the clothing and props (armours, weapons) are TERRIBLE, the characterization is TERRIBLE, music is kinda generic, its just another generic story with tolkines characters names in it, nothing special.
