Perfect implementation of the original book

I can only agree with the other reviews. Those who know the books well and found the series will love just the same. And who took as the pillars of the earth well and generally medieval scenes like or even movies like Braveheart is not averse, nor one of which is the Game of Thrones avoided because of the many sex scenes - which will also have its joy. So far I have found nothing that has not been adequately explained in the series and you could only understand the situation or the circumstances, if you read the book. Always assuming, of course, that one is the English powerful enough. What I here's a pity find that the Gaelic text passages are not subtitled. But these are quite rare and only briefly.

But if you have read the book, you will appreciate the richness of detail even more. I think that you realize that the author had a say. So many details of the books were taken over and the story ansich implemented very faithfully. Sure, everything could probably not 1: 1 manner. That probably would have blown up completely the financial framework. I'm so glad that they did not simply wasted this wonderful story into a half-baked 1 1/2 hours of film, but turned it into a series that plays high in the same league as Game of Thrones. The cast is consistently voted almost perfectly. Everything implemented credibly and with great enthusiasm. One will immediately fall under the spell, much like with the books also. Visually here a lot is on offer, and no I do not just Jamie. The landscapes are uniquely beautiful. Since you get really itchy feet. For this, the appropriate Scottish sounds - simply beautiful. In general I find the soundtrack very successful and always fit. The type of music is also very subtly conveyed much of the inner workings of the actress Claire. A stroke of genius in my opinion. Thus, at the beginning, when she still imagines escape plans and her heart still completely Frank often heard Charleston played. But the more they can find their way in their new environment and more and more home feeling, Scottish sounds come only for use. Also various color filters help to better distinguish between the different sequences: Scotland in the 1950's and Scotland 200 years ago in the 18th century. While the colors in Scotland around 1950 look rather pale and grauschleierig, they shine formally in the sequences of medieval Scotland, but still act naturally and not oversubscribed.

All in all well done. Highly Recommended. Predicate should watch and sink in the beauty of the Highlands. I can not wait to see more.
