Review: The Lord Of The Rings: Rings Of Power Eps 1 & 2

Revisiting arguably the biggest fantasy movie trilogy of our time is no mean feat, so the brand new TV series Rings Of Power certainly comes burdened with high expectations. Set thousands of years before the events of The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings, the show covers the forging of the Rings of Power, the rise of Sauron, and the last alliance between Elves and Men. We review the first two episodes of the show and discuss whether it's a welcome journey back to Middle-earth.
