One of the first who did not hold back in expressing himself about her has been Eric Francissenior film and television editor at the media reversewho in three general words asserted that the rings of power it’s big, bold and beautiful. This was his full expression:

“I’ve seen The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power and I can say with certainty that you are in for a surprise. Big, bold and beautiful to behold. I’m not sure if it will sit alongside the Jackson films or if it deserves the Tolkien name, but for now it’s all the maximalist pizzazz one could expect from a historically expensive production.”
