If you enjoy reading my Spoiler-Free reviews, please follow my blog @ https://www.msbreviews.com This review will be from someone who doesn't remember a single thing about The Golden Compass (2007), and who didn't read the books. This series wasn't marketed like Watchmen, which requires previous knowledge from the universe it is set in. Therefore, it should stand on its own... and it does, even if with a few struggles along the way, especially at the beginning. I won't spoil anything that the…

**SEASON ONE REVIEW:** S1 of 'His Dark Materials' is enjoyable viewing. First and foremost, the special effects for this show are incredible. The animals and dæmons look insane, especially by television standards. That is the thing that I love most about this. The cinematography is also top notch. Cast-wise it's good. It's easy to see that Dafne Keen (Lyra) has serious talent, she is impressive for the majority here - at a few moments her performance isn't perfect, e.g. when finding out so…

**_Season 2_** **Original Review (based on the season's first five episodes handed to press)** HBO is back with the show that was supposed to take over Game of Thrones' massive success. His Dark Materials' debut season was a good start (review here), but its complex, layered storylines didn't all mix up together that well. It's an extremely dense narrative, one that Jack Thorne (the sole writer of season one) had some trouble nailing it. Now, not only does he bring Francesca Gardiner, Sar…

Finished the last episode last night, and I'm giving the show a perfect 5-star rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Yes, it was somewhat altered from the books that I love so much; but the changes made sense for a TV adaptation, and I don't feel that any of those changes detracted from the story in any substantial way. All the most important elements are present; casting and acting are superb; sets, costumes, and effects are top-notch; and I love seeing Lyra and Will come to life before my eyes. The end…

His Dark Materials, the TV adaptation of Philip Pullman's book series, is a disappointing step down from the previous attempt to bring this story to life on the big screen. The Golden Compass, released in 2007, had its issues, but this new series feels like a watered-down version only for young children, with its simplistic dialogue and toned-down action. With cameos from actors like Harry Melling (Dudley Dursley from Harry Potter), and other big names who appear briefly, it feels like the s…
