CIIV

The show is massively overhyped. This season’s storyline felt extremely scattered, with many scenes and set pieces coming across as unnecessary and dragged out. The writing felt derivative, and at no point was I intrigued or even curious about what would happen next. At its best, it felt like what would be considered generic Hollywood slop 10 years ago. The costume design was also horrendous. Everything looked plastic and cheap. It often felt comparable to cosplay quality, somehow produced with the budget of a small nation. It works as background noise while scrolling on your phone, but not much more than that. I felt hugely disappointed considering all the hype surrounding it.
