If you enjoy reading my Spoiler-Free reviews, please follow my blog @ https://www.msbreviews.com This review will be from someone who doesn't remember a single thing about The Golden Compass (2007), and who didn't read the books. This series wasn't marketed like Watchmen, which requires previous knowledge from the universe it is set in. Therefore, it should stand on its own... and it does, even...

**SEASON ONE REVIEW:** S1 of 'His Dark Materials' is enjoyable viewing. First and foremost, the special effects for this show are incredible.

All the most important elements are present; casting and acting are superb; sets, costumes,...

His Dark Materials, the TV adaptation of Philip Pullman's book series, is a disappointing step down from the previous attempt to bring this story to life on the big screen. The Golden Compass, released in 2007, had its issues, but this new series feels like a watered-down version only for young children, with its simplistic dialogue and toned-down action. With cameos from actors like Harry Mel...
