Game of Thrones - S8 • E4 Ratings & Reviews
Slate
Lili Loofbourow
"The Last of the Starks" was a fascinating lesson in how Westerosi official histories come about.
Boston Globe
Matthew Gilbert
I didn't think the episode, called "The Last of the Starks," was particularly smooth overall.
Washington Post
David Malitz
Maybe it was just good luck on those initial kill shots, though, because the next few dozen arrows that fly toward Daenerys and Drogon all miss their mark. Every single one of them. Yep.
New York Magazine/Vulture
Kathryn VanArendonk
Even under that best-case scenario, though it's hard to imagine the last two episodes of Game of Thrones could fully recover from the way "The Last of the Starks" betrays Brienne, Sansa, and Missandei.
Guardian
Sarah Hughes
Where a lesser show would have hurried the action, moving us swiftly on to the battle with Cersei, The Last of the Starks took time to show what the true cost of the Battle of Winterfell was.
Globe and Mail
Barry Hertz
Although the episode contained a handful of surprises, it engineered the twists in a fashion that felt rushed, preposterous and insulting.
The Age (Australia)
Karl Quinn
So Varys, the arch political schemer and great cynic, turns out to be the greatest idealist in Game of Thrones. Who saw that coming?
AV Club
Danette Chavez
The episode often feels like pure setup... It's concerning because there's already been so much table-setting this season.
Salon.com
Melanie McFarland
One can't be blamed for our affection dying down as we steel ourselves for the possibility that the grand ending to it all might just leave us cold.
CNN.com
AJ Willingham
All in all, a good time.
The Atlantic
Shirley Li
If it were a character, it'd be Gendry: It got down on its knees, drunkenly updated me on its latest victory, then tried to make me buy into the fact that moving on after fighting a battle against actual ice zombies is fairly easy to do.
The Atlantic
Spencer Kornhaber
The episode recaptured some classic Thrones qualities, really. With the tedious army of the dead turned to powder, the show can, in its final run, get back to what once made it great: very tense feasts.
Rolling Stone
Alan Sepinwall
It never feels solid enough. The script races through the transition, piling one personality-altering event on top of the next so that none of them gets to breathe.
New Yorker
Sarah Larson
I'd hoped that the episode after "The Battle of Winterfell" and its shattering of zombies would begin with "Ding, Dong, the Witch Is Dead" joy. Instead, it began funereally.
BBC.com
Stephen Kelly
For as impressive as last week's spectacle was, none of it felt as engaging as this week's smaller moments of politicking and intrigue - of Tyrion and Varys contemplating treason.
Chicago Tribune
Steve Johnson
How are we supposed to get thrilled about fighting mere Cersei again when we've already bested the greatest enemy of all time?
New York Magazine/Vulture
Hillary Kelly
In the aftermath of the Battle of Winterfell, we always knew there would come another long set-up period.
NPR
Glen Weldon
[It] couldn't help but feel anticlimactic and setty-uppy, coming as it does in the narrative gully that naturally stretches between last week's exultantly fire-and-bloody spectacle
Daily Telegraph (UK)
Michael Deacon
Even setting aside the bits about Daenerys, this was, in general, a weaker episode.
Los Angeles Times
Chris Barton
At 78 minutes, this episode nearly approached last week's running time, and the bulk of it was filled with the sort of palace intrigue and character dynamics that made the show more than the sum of its dragons.
