Game of Thrones - S8 • E5 Ratings & Reviews
New York Post
Robert Rorke
It was shocking, and like the best of "Thrones," unexpected. But you can't say we weren't warned.
CNN.com
AJ Willingham
If we're supposed to buy Dany turning Mad Queen after seasons of building her up as a hero and a revolutionary, why did she get about 3.5 seconds of screen time once she started burning everything down?
Rolling Stone
Alan Sepinwall
No TV episode has ever looked more impressive than this one. But the technical genius wasn't accompanied by the storytelling equivalent. As a result, the 80-plus minutes soon began to feel punishing.
The Age (Australia)
Karl Quinn
So it turns out there is an enemy more fearsome than the Night King for the long-suffering folk of Westeros after all. It's the woman who's come to save them.
Los Angeles Times
Chris Barton
Whether that plan can still coalesce into a satisfying "GOT" ending will be decided next week, but with so much hinging on accepting this reversal by Daenerys... that is feeling like another long shot.
Globe and Mail
Barry Hertz
Benioff and Weiss have well and truly ruined seven seasons' worth of careful character-building, not to mention immensely impressive work from Emilia Clarke, in one fiery fell swoop.
Newsday
Verne Gay
It was one of those episodes designed to exhaust fans as much as sate curiosities - their own "Game of Thrones" drinking contests now ended in one, bloody whoosh.
Washington Post
David Malitz
Why am I weirdly nostalgic for the Night King? That can't be good.)
Slate
Willa Paskin
The show is hitting viewers in the nose, extremely hard, with an idea that has been latent since the beginning: that rooting for anyone is a loser's game.
Hollywood Reporter
Maureen Ryan
To say the show befouled the bed in its penultimate episode, "The Bells," is putting it mildly.
New York Magazine/Vulture
Kathryn VanArendonk
Disheartened isn't even the right word. I am exhausted by Mad Queen Dany, with the kind of fatigue that leads to jaw-cracking yawns and deep, resigned sighs.
Boston Globe
Matthew Gilbert
There were "touching" moments everywhere in this well-lit battle episode - and I put quotes around that word because, with the final season's hasty pace and sudden personality shifts, only a few of them truly landed.
Chicago Tribune
Steve Johnson
I found the ensuing battle reasonably worthy of the years of hype and expectation about it in "GoT" fandom. We got to see the Mountain's face finally, which was kind of an ultimate treat/not-treat.
Daily Telegraph (UK)
Michael Deacon
Sorry. But no. I just didn't buy that. Any of it.
New Yorker
Sarah Larson
The deaths of intelligent, rational people on this show-your Tywins, your Qyburns, your Varyses-create a special pain: even if they're scumbags, you'll miss their competence.
Salon.com
Melanie McFarland
What we did lose, however, was the rich narrative thread the series has spun for who Dany and Grey Worm and the Northerners, our presumed good guys, are supposed to be in the end.
New York Magazine/Vulture
Hillary Kelly
Game of Thrones should end the same way it did its best work - surprising us. Or perhaps surprising us about the way it's surprising us.
Guardian
Sarah Hughes
There was so much that could have worked here, so many emotional pay-offs and beautifully shot scenes - and it was all let down by how little work was put into earning those moments.
NPR
Glen Weldon
Dany got a raw deal.
BBC.com
Hugh Montgomery
By the end of this 90 minutes, as the ash settled, it is difficult not to feel one was looking at the charred remains of an era-defining television show's integrity.
