Arthdal Chronicles (2019–2023)
10/10
Great Fantasy Drama
16 July 2019
There are fantasy shows that have everything that makes fantasy great, and there are many that try and fail. Game of Thrones is one that succeeded. Arthdal Chronicles is another. So they have something in common. And no matter which fantasy show you take, you will probably find some king sitting on a throne and some women in pretty dresses, swords and castles. Game of Thrones was based on the scandinavian Edda, an old myth. A lot of fantasies are based on old myths, its what makes them so interesting - they remind us of fairytales we heard in childhood. And at the same time, if they are great, they are unique. Arthdal Chronicles has created something beautifully different from what we have seen before. It is creative, imaginative, captivating. The series started a little slow, but quickly found its pace. It has great actors, who very clearly do their best to bring their roles alive. It is not an American production, so sometimes the characters don't act like you would expect them to. I consider this a good thing. I hope it will stay true to itself and continue its story in the next season. It should get the recognition it deserves.
