The first two episodes of The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power have appeared in recent days on Prime Video, and despite the more than positive opinions of the critics, users at the exit have bombarded the series with negative opinions. For this reason, Amazon has decided to block every review for 72 hours, in order to weed out the haters.

The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power currently has an average percentage of reviews of 34% for the public, contrasted with 87% of the critics. This is not the first case of “review bombing” that has occurred recently, given that the same fate befell She-Hulk: Attorney at Law, the new Marvel series released on Disney +, where 88% of critics clash with the 36% of users.

Negative reviews of the Amazon series range from racist comments about the characters to general opinions calling it “boring.” The public can still express their opinion on IMDb, the platform that Amazon owns where The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power currently has an average of 6.1 out of 10.

Unfortunately, it was to be expected that such a fate would befall the series, as ever since the studio released the first images of the multicultural cast, it was flooded with racist criticism. Things could change over the course of the episodes, which could convince the public still unsure of the quality of the work.
