      Game of Thrones - Season 8, Winterfell

      What to Know

      Critics Consensus

      Though surprisingly bloodless, hard-fought reunions, bone-chilling surprises, and unexpected humor help "Winterfell" set the stage for what should be an epic final season.

      Previous Critic's profile Eric Deggans NPR Lovers may become rivals. Siblings have become enemies. And a gigantic zombie army is marching south to kill everyone. Seems as if this final "Game Of Thrones" is off to an exciting and well-crafted start. Nov 23, 2019 Full Review Critic's profile AJ Willingham CNN.com Maybe it's just a vibe, but it seems like the Golden Company's leader has absolutely no idea what he's gotten himself into and will not be pleased when he figures it out. Apr 22, 2019 Full Review Critic's profile Kimber Myers The Playlist "Winterfell" is a fitting return for the series, remaining true to its narrative core while providing so many emotionally satisfying reunions (Arya and Jon! Sam and Jon! Arya and the Hound!) that its punches to the gut aren't quite as bruising. Apr 22, 2019 Full Review Critic's profile Swetha Ramakrishnan Firstpost This conflict seems to be a natural progression of the chain of events that happened in season 7... Oct 9, 2023 Full Review Critic's profile Christopher Hooton NME (New Musical Express) 'Winterfell' was a solid return for the show, albeit it one largely taken up with housekeeping. Jul 14, 2021 Full Review Critic's profile Fausto Ponce Alta Fidelidad Magazine Turned out to be quite satisfying. [Full review in Spanish] Apr 26, 2021 Full Review Read all reviews Next
