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 Melling (Dudley Dursley from Harry Potter), and other big names who appear briefly, it feels like the show is trying to draw in viewers with star power rather than strong storytelling. The acting is a letdown, with the young leads delivering stilted and awkward performances that fail to capture the depth and emotion of their characters in the books.
