To any writers out there if you want to make a show or movie based on a book, stay true to the book you are basing it on, otherwise create something original. Most writers in film nowadays are no talent hacks, who aren’t creative. They can’t make a story of their own so they take someone else’s and destroy it.… Expand

As a fan of the books, I am more than disappointed in the show. It shows a lack of understanding of the source material. It is also crystal clear they didn't truly appreciate or love the books the way most of us do.

For example, they paintAs a fan of the books, I am more than disappointed in the show. It shows a lack of understanding of the source material. It is also crystal clear they didn't truly appreciate or love the books the way most of us do.

For example, they paint Mat Cauthon's parents as a dysfunctional and broken family. The mother is a drunk, and the father an adulterer who is constantly flirting with other women. This didn't happen. It wasn't needed. It adds no value.

Another example, Perrin has a girlfriend whom he's sleeping with (didn't happen) that he accidentally kills in the initial trolloc attack. What the hell? Again, this didn't happen. It wasn't needed. It adds no value.

On top of these ridiculous changes, the graphics and production value is something akin to a WB show, not the next GOT as they intended. It felt cheap, it looked cheap, it was cheap. They also felt the need to overlay today's politics and wokeism over a world very different from our own. They tried to force a round peg into a square hole and in the process ruined it.

What makes it worse is this story already cherishes & celebrates women and other cultures. The entire story is about women Aes Sedai saving and guiding the world for thousands of years because the men broke it in their pursuit for power. Women succeeded where men failed.

I wish writers and directors would just focus on a good story rather than drive their own political agendas.

Overall, IMO, it was an utter failure.… Expand

The writers did not want to use the best-selling source material, they wanted to write their own. That would maybe be ok if they did a good job - they didn't. Characters are underdeveloped. Plot is rushed. Dialogue is shallow. There are plot holes, and the lore is wrecked.

Production value is similarly bad.

I can understand making changes because some of the source material doesn't translate to screen, but the changes made are needless and ruin main character's development and in some cases completely changes who they are as characters. The writing is atrocious and I'd be surprised if this makes it past season 2. The lighting is terrible and the sets seem lifeless and fake. The actors, for the most part, do a fine job with the poorly-written scripts they are given. I feel the show runner doesn't understand what made these books so special to so many people and is inserting his own philosophies and agendas into the story. I want an adaptation of a series that I hold dear to my heart. Not a retelling where the writers can butcher whatever parts of the story they choose.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Spoiler alert but who cares —This show is a dumpster fire

I’ve watched the whole first season and don’t know a single characters name. I mean I watch Witcher, GoT (yes I disliked the last two seasons), insert other fantasy series… I know all of the characters for these shows. Why cannot I not make myself give a crap about this show?

1) the plot is trying way too hard: good vs evil yin and Yang , really boring. Done to death. 2) Characters are one-dimensional. Oh boy - the dude with the “cursed knife” is evil great contrived, oh!! the big wolf guy is a pacifist until goated by evil dude… shocking. The bow guy is the dragon and is tempted to evil but magically wakes up (I actually was rooting for him to destroy this horrible cinematic wank fest world of michael bay-esque cg porn. Forget it bezos invest in some actual writers, and cut the budget on the shiny things. What’s with the katana dude and his “bond” with moraine (holy **** It turns out I do know one character’s name). This show just pisses me off. 3) so why does the “dark one” want to take over the world? I mean we don’t see him until the season finale along with the random guy that steals a random horn with the blank face teeth things!!! You know what I don’t care who he is because this show is boring and stupid… it will take 9 seasons to figure out that he’s someone’s father or creator or both good and evil or some other bs trope… what’s for sure is the fact that he “dies” in the 1st season finale guarantees a redundant arc on the horizon. “Evil doesn’t die, it just turns into the weird cursed knife guy” or something … who cares 4) I can’t related with any of the characters and the dialogue is way too **** serious. again I like the Witcher. Why? It doesn’t take itself too serious, the characters have personality. Good and evil is relative . As matter of fact it is the relativity of morals per characters that makes for character and plot development. Moral ambiguity makes for compelling choices and layers, interpersonal arc development, and dynamics . This show forces bland dialogue and shallow characters into predictable black and white buckets and try’s to be clever by occasionally feigning them to question their values. Alright I’ve bored my self writing this dumpster fire review of a painfully boring show …. Oh wait who was the pregnant lady in the begging of that one episode … is that the dragons real mother??? Who cares I done… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This web series by Amazon is an insult to the work of Robert Jordan and his hard work that created a rich world of fantasy and magic that touched more than 90 million readers. Not only have they replaced the original rich story and lore with a pathetic story of their own, they have done so in a manner that is inconsistent even with their own creation. Even if we excuse this glaring mistake even then the character development, the pacing, the VFX, the sets, to the clothing of tthe the characters is just too bad. While I can go in details as to how they butcher every character from the original work this would be a long review. Instead if I am just to point out a few mistakes and inconsistencies of their own creation that would be good. Ex-1 The Whitecloaks are supposed to be the biggest evil dudes against the Aes Sedai. It is shown that they burn them like witches of medeival age while one of them eats a whole bird watching the scene (a shoddy attempt to create a feel of terror IMO). Then we have their group meeting Moiraine and group and one of the senior commanders telling Moiraine to get her wound healed from an Aes Sedai!!! Why ??? It's like a Catholic Priest in the middle ages asking a villager to get healed from a witch in front of tons of clergymen!!! Ex-2 Men can't see women channeling the "One Power" and vice versa is what we are told when Logain is being held captive by the Aes Sedai. Then we see Kerene Nagashi is able to save Moiraine from a "One Power" knife hurled at her by Logain. WTaf!! How is she able to see it ??? Next we see Logain watching in amazement as Nynaeve goes Super Saiyyan with her Healing wave and cures everyone while he comments her power is "like a raging sun"! How the hell is he able to see all that!!! Ex-3 We are shown that dozens of Full Aes Sedai sisters struggle to fight a thousand man army of Logain and we see some deaths as well. However in episode 8 we have an Accepted, Amalisa, who isn't a full White Tower accepted Aes Sedai sister btw, channel with four Wilders (Egwene, Nynaeve and 2 other random women) and defeat an army of 5000 Trollocs!!! Yes 5000! Take a while to ponder on that number because in Episode 1 we are shown it took atleast 8-9 grown women to bring down a single Trolloc! Where tf is the consistency!!!! Next we see that Egwene brings back Nynaeve from death!!! WOW!!! And that too while ditching the other 3 ladies to death! Next topic is the question of Dragon Reborn. Now while we get a lot of Nynaeve and Egwene moments the male characters of Emond's Field are totally pushed away from having any character development at all. We see Machin Shin of all explaining to Rand that he is the Dragon Reborn!!! We see a few scenes that were probably cut in the first episode and there we have it! The question of the millenia answered by a farmboy himself. Not t mention that shoddy fight with the Dark One where Rand steals Egwene's Accepted test scene from The Dragon Reborn book. This show deserves nothing but to be thrown to the dustbin. I still can't digest the fact that it took $10 million/episode to make this **** Amazon better wind up if they don't want further losses.… Expand

Fight choreography and battle scenes are ridiculous in a bad way (but there’s not a lot of either). The writing is terrible, especially the dialog! The biggest issue is the lack of attention to detail. There are so many inconsistency in every technical aspect, that it takes the viewer right out of the show. Those involved in making this show were either incompetent, too inexperienced, or just didn't care.

Considering the amazing books this is supposed to be based on, this is the worst show I've ever seen! The show does NOT follow the books at all. It is clear the Show-runner and possibly writers hate the source material and want to deconstruct it. An example that sums it up is the show has an episode called "Blood calls blood". The books have a chapter called the same. The book chapter ends with a character stating the following great line "There is one rule, above all others, for being a man. Whatever comes, face it on your feet." The show's episode ends with this same character kneeling on the floor, crying, yelling at the ceiling, and for some strange reason twisting his nipples. Clearly there’s an agenda here.

To me changing an author's work to this degree and passing it off as the same IP is the equivalent of book burning! Amazon should be ashamed of themselves for making this show… Expand
