WHAT TO KNOW

Critics Consensus

Approaching its dynastic cataclysm with a deliberate stride rather than a
charging gallop, House of the Dragon carefully sets up its emotional stakes to
make the fiery spectacle all the more scorching.

CRITICS REVIEWS

View All (253) Critics Reviews
Fiona Sturges Financial Times But implausibilities aside, in its second outing,
House of the Dragon has cemented itself as a fantasy drama of weight and worth,
one that has favoured smart, streamlined plotting and emotional heft over empty
spectacle. Rated: 4/5 •  Aug 7, 2024 Full Review Phillip Maciak The New Republic
This story began as a footnote, and House of the Dragon has yet to prove itself
as more than an annotation. Jun 27, 2024 Full Review Camilla Long Times (UK) I’m
mostly watching it for Olivia Cooke as the poisonous Alicent, a proto-Cersei
Lannister. Jun 24, 2024 Full Review Victor Pineyro Seventh Art Studio
Protagonists are reactive, budget didn't allow us to leave the three main
locations making the characters redundant, the creators believe every single
audience member has read the books, some epic moments nonetheless. [Full review
in Spanish] Rated: 6/10 •  Aug 8, 2024 Full Review Jon Negroni Cinemaholics It’s
exceptionally clear to me that Condal enjoys the text for the same reasons I do.
That he’s far more interested in the shading of history than the accurate
depiction of it. Aug 8, 2024 Full Review Jorge Loser Espinof The season benefits
from having only eight episodes instead of ten; it flies by and nothing goes
amiss, in all aspects, from the direction and staging to the photography, it is
a constant improvement from the previous one. [Full review in Spanish] Aug 7,
2024 Full Review Read all reviews


AUDIENCE REVIEWS

View All (1000+) audience reviews
Elizabeth G It's an average season because of visual elements like the
photography, which is impeccable throughout the season. The problem is the
inconsistencies in the series' universe. In particular, The lack of consequences
of Blood & Cheese on the greens is a very big problem. Alicent's personality is
a sh*t show for itself, she kinda seems to have a different personality every 4
episodes. Lack of development. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars
08/09/24 Full Review Guy K good show. and who does the music? A+!!!!!!!!!!!
Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/09/24 Full Review Isaac K Sorta
anxious about the financial troubles at HBO/WB as I see reporting that money
impacted the final episodes of the season. Get it together. This show has SO
MUCH POTENTIAL!!!!!!!!!!!!! Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars
08/09/24 Full Review Tobold H If they don't care to put the money in the right
place then I don't care to leave a good review. Just not a well-executed show.
Not an engaging enough story, not engaging enough characters, and a terrible,
non-existent ending. Why even make a GOT spin-off if you don't have those
components in place. Rated 1.5/5 Stars •  Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 08/09/24 Full
Review Christopher M Just as great as its previous season and game of thrones
before it. Such an enjoyable watch with superb acting, plot, and settings.
Excited to see the fights to come in the next season. Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated
4.5 out of 5 stars 08/08/24 Full Review Parker A I have a couple notes, however,
this season of HOTD really did a lot of good and should lead to a great season 3
if they execute Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/08/24 Full Review
