Cameron E @RT43860560 Jun 17, 2026 I don't think it would be possible to make this more opposite to the original books. It looks and feels like random bits stitched from the cutting room floor of fantasy B-movies. The actors all look like stand-ins, doubles, and placeholders for real actors who never show up. None of the sets is believable, and the special effects are ridiculous. There is no character development, everyone is mis-cast, and the creators of this obviously didn't understand even the most basic concepts from the books. In short, it's a colossal embarrassment.

LeGuin's books, threw it away, and replaced it with the most boring, generic tropes from fantasy films. See more Aug 25, 2020 Holy Forking Shirtballs! What a travesty! Take the book, skim it then take a giant dump on it.

See more Aug 4, 2013 The books that this movie is based on were terrific so I was curious. The producers tried to cram three books into one long movie. The acting is just so-so and they added love interests and other stuff that wasn't in the books and distracted from the story. See more Read all reviews
