What to Know

Critics Consensus

"The Eye" blinks when it comes to fully capitalizing on the momentum that its predecessor's volcanic climax promised, but it succeeds admirably in dovetailing plotlines and teeing up a cohesive finale.

It would definitely be helpful if we had a better sense of what the elves' problem even is...almost frustratingly on the nose... Go to Full Review Ed Cumming Daily Telegraph (UK) 10/07/2022

While episode seven played out at a slower tempo, it benefitted from the fresh momentum. Say what you like about a pyroclastic flow, it concentrates the mind. Go to Full Review Matt Schimkowitz AV Club 10/07/2022

There's so much to love about Ismael Cruz Córdova's portrayal of Arondir. The relationship between him and Bronwyn is intense and forbidden in the best way, and it's really nice to see the Silvan Elves in Ostirith. Go to Full Review Austin Gilkeson The New York Review of Books 01/27/2023
Tolkien's "machine for the evocation of scholarly frisson" has been turned into an assembly line. The goal is to keep the machine running for as long as it is profitable, with no natural end in sight. Go to Full Review Lauren Busser Tell-Tale TV 10/18/2022
4/5
While it’s clear that we can’t expect all the questions to be answered by the finale, “The Eye” gives us some hope that the series may come together if the writers continue to focus on what is driving their characters. Go to Full Review Read all reviews
