While the monsters, sets, and costumes are incredible and there are a few standout performances, the series overall feels scattered and aimless. Go to Full Review Sebastian Zavala Kahn No Es En Serie 09/10/2024

It is intriguing to see how Annatar manipulates an arrogant Celebrimbor, taking advantage of his skills to create the different Rings that will allow him to conquer a good part of Middle Earth. Full review in Spanish. Go to Full Review Chris Gallardo Tell-Tale TV 09/03/2024
3.5/5
eason 2 is more fun because it increases the stakes and pushes its characters in new directions. Some characters may falter, and storylines might fall apart, but there’s still potential as the wheels begin turning on Sauron’s wicked plan.

2.8/5
The Rings of Power still has issues it needs to iron out – the storytelling balance is still uneven, but that’s what happens when the real thrust of the story takes place in a single location and only includes certain characters at this phase of the tale. Go to Full Review Read all reviews
