Dreary

Rating: 4/10 (2 November 2019)

Compared to Henry IV parts one and two and Henry V by Shakespeare this is routine drama by the numbers.
It covers the material and it looks good enough but it has no spark and the pace is typical of those mainstream sword and fantasy series which are earnest and plod through its episodes.
The Shakespeare originals are much better, imperfect in many ways, but packed with intrigue and politics and lots of humor, most of it not very elegant humor either.
