I don't understand that part of the review at all. Who wants all the answers given away in the pilot of a series? I mean we don't know if there will be a series or not, but I don't think this movie is supposed to be a stand-alone thing like "In The Beginning" or "Thirdspace".

It's just my own opinion that type of review is the most dangerous. For example, had I not the experience I did with reading reviews I would have probably bought Emperor BFD for the "uniqueness" acclaimed to it. And I know I'm beating a dead horse but what about Western media. Because it usually provides such an objective front a lot of people are taken by what is actually propaganda. If it is my choice, I'll take two reviews with opposite sides and decide then.

I almost bought Emperor: Battle for Dune. But I read some reviews first. They were impartial, and presented both sides of the game. I decided from them that the bad parts outweighed the good and didn't buy it.

That's good to hear but I think that's you, not most people.

We live for the one. We die for the one.
