Critic Reviews
The GuardianNov 30, 2022
Season 1 Review:
If you’re inclined towards a YA-quest series, this one is at least on a par with others in that genre, such as Netflix’s thematically similar The Letter for the King. The gags are better and, if the episode one battle scene is any indication, the monster effects have just the right amount of foggy menace. Willow is worth reviving, even if we probably won’t remember it for long.

Season 1 Review:
Willow is solidly down-the-middle entertainment that aims to deliver mnemonic pleasures to an audience that already loves the property, with a few updated ideas and some buffed-and-polished special effects. It suffers mostly when it doesn’t quite grasp the voice and tone of the original film, but just as its successes aren’t really dazzling, its failures aren’t fatal.

Season 1 Review:
[Willow] only exhibits a spark of life whenever Davis is cracking wise or admonishing his compatriots to follow his lead, which isn’t frequent enough. Perhaps Willow has some amazing surprise around its later corners that justify this return trip to Tir Asleen. On the basis of its maiden installments, though, it mostly comes across as another unnecessary if passable bit of IP exploitation.
