So much unused potenial (review for all 3 parts together)
Story: The plot is actually pretty classic and could be great. A people get enslaved and a hero reaches out to safe the people he loves. A little of romance, family issues, religion and an antagonist who does not want to be evil.
The story is extremely slow developing and it gets worst in part 2 and 3. There are many scenes of conversations, thinking and recalling conversations up to the point I thought: "Ok even the last person got it now". The few scenes in which actually something happened were good, either thrilling or emotional.
Cast: Obviously the cast is amazing and all of them did a great job! However, the way the characters are written cannot be compensated by amazing performances.
Characters: There are a lot of characters but only two of them undergo a character development. Almost every character stays in their line and no matter what happened they stay the way they are. There are scenes in which they have high thoughts of "I will kill..." or "This is just the beginning" but basically nothing happened. The figures are rather plain characterized and the interactions are short. Some figures and character combinations could have been interesting... even great, but they did not draw that picture to the end.
Cenementory: The drama could have been visually stunning. Obviously the budget increased while airing. In the first view episodes there were some beautiful scenes but later on not even this was given. They only have shown a view interesting or impressive places. They used fast camera movements to mask the fighting performances and used less visual elements which could have been touching.
Music: There is only a small variety of instrumental background music. Most sounds pretty much the same and didn't affect my emotions at all.
End: It is an open end obviously Netflix wanted to open a floodgate to catch audience and save their futur income
