Le Début de la fin (S01E01)

Dark, visually captivating, and the action scenes are choreographed to perfection. It feels a bit like a dark chivalric fantasy, mixed with medieval realities and socio-political issues of the contemporary world. At the same time, it feels like a somewhat barebones introduction to all those fictional kingdoms and a large cast of characters. And it is so catchy that the second episode is hard to resist.

Once again, it has been confirmed to me that the higher my expectations, the worse the outcome. I saw a trailer for the series and expected an absolute disaster, but the first episode pleasantly surprised me. Are actor quotas really a good idea? Every time that black person in armor appeared on screen, I burst out laughing like a madman, which completely ruined the dramatic atmosphere of some scenes. (15/01/2020)
