Matthew S @Mattador24 1h This is fantastic. The only real complaint is the episodes and season are way too short. HBO please throw gazillions of dollars at this please 🙏🏼 See more HEATH R. @heathrobbins 3h HBO’s A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms tells a grounded, human story in Westeros. The show is less magical than Game of Thrones, focusing on political tension, moral choices, and fragile power. The royal family remains central, though more human than mythic, which adds realism. The setting often feels like medieval Ireland rather than high fantasy, making the world tangible and lived-in. Despite its smaller scale, the series delivers strong tension and drama. Bloodshed and the consequences of ambition are handled thoughtfully, keeping the story gripping without relying on spectacle. The pacing and editing are precise, ensuring each scene lands effectively. The series captures the essence of early Game of Thrones, where character and consequence drove the story as much as dragons or battles. The acting is excellent, particularly Aegon and Duncan, who bring depth and nuance to political intrigue and moral dilemmas. The series shows that restraint and character-driven storytelling can be as compelling as epic fantasy, making it a strong addition to the Westerosi saga.

See more Zulaiha M @Mei-Z 8h I highly enjoyed this. The writing was evidently very good, and the characters were brilliantly thought out. A shame that the episodes were so short, but I understand that it was due to the the story being from a novella. See more Shelly W @ShellyW 15h The story of a hero's journey. This series keeps it simple and to the point, intertwining memories into the story so as not to subtract from the overall arc but rather to enhance it. I don't want to write a spoiler here but the character building in episode 5 is stupendous and heartfelt. This just goes to show that a ton of money can be saved on special effects if the story has such depth that it pulls you in. That being said, i still rather enjoyed the costumes and sets that were used. I refer rather to the extravagant post film production aspect. See more Sami R 16h it's just great, even if the series didnt finish yet, i've loved every single episode so far, keeping close to books itself. more of dunk and egg! this is amazing if you liked GoT s1-7 or HotD s1-2 See more Read all reviews
