Remove the previouslies and the end credits and this episode barely clocked in at 45 minutes. But it's hard to see anyone feeling like they didn't get enough. Go to Full Review

5/5
The Dothraki are so badass, and their entrance was spellbinding (and terrifying). Go to Full Review

Daenerys gets her dragon on, big time. What was it Olenna Tyrell said to her the other week? "Be the dragon." Well, she's only gone and done it. Burn baby burn, it's a Dany inferno. Go to Full Review

These perspectives are important in an episode like this, one that delivers some huge story and action beats. A reminder that we're living this story through the eyes of characters whom we've grown to love. Go to Full Review

5/5
Revealed to be the shortest episode of the show so far, at a mere 45-ish minutes, it still crammed in more action than the average season finale has managed. Go to Full Review
Dave Gonzales Thrillist 04/06/2019
If the pace of conflict felt accelerated before, Season 7 of Game of Thrones feels like a wild train barreling towards the end of its final stop. Go to Full Review
