3/5
The other goings-on remain pretty intense, even with Galadriel sidelined for much of the episode. Go to Full Review Matt Schimkowitz AV Club 09/12/2024
B-
Rings Of Power is still effective in the broad strokes. Halfway through season two, the Elves’ failure is more and more one of their own making, but that goes for everyone else, too. Go to Full Review Samantha Nelson IGN Movies 10/03/2024
7/10
The strongest episode of season 2 so far, focusing mostly on leaders falling under corrupting influence. Go to Full Review M.N. Miller FandomWire 09/19/2024
9/10
The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power (2022) season 2 episode 5 is a showcase for Charlie Vicker's magnetic and ominously charming performance as Sauron. Go to Full Review James Whitbrook io9.com 09/18/2024
It's the proverbial butter scraped over too much bread: there's moments here of something satisfying to chew on, but they're cast aside too quickly, too much feast after so much famine, that you don't really get time to swallow. Go to Full Review Jean Henegan Pop Culture Maniacs 09/13/2024
3.5/5
The sequences this season that explore the mechanics of just how Annatar was able to infiltrate Eregion, forge the rings, and start to turn the other smiths against Celebrimbor are far and away the most interesting pieces of this season’s complex arcs. Go to Full Review Read all reviews
