    like the realism of it, v relatable, but the mopeyness of it was a bit of a drag

    world-creation at its peak

    the costumes, visual effects and locations for this were incredible; the cinematography was stunning; the acting faultless; the music empowering, and yet something feels like it’s missing

    maybe the fact that it’s part 1 of a series allowed the creators to feel like they didn’t need to produce a complete journey and so it feels like we’ve actually only seen half the film, or just that the climax wasn’t much of a climax? whatever the reason,…
