最新美劇推薦：奇幻新劇《沙娜拉之劍》播出
兩小時(shí)的首播提供了大量劇情——精靈公主Amberle (Poppy Drayton飾)意識(shí)到自己的使命是要去阻止一群正在毀滅自己國家的惡魔。由于正在枯萎的埃勒里樹樹葉脫落，惡魔們將被釋放，為對(duì)抗正在逼近的恐怖怪物，她要同具有一半精靈血統(tǒng)的Wil Ohmsford(Austin Butler飾)，德魯伊族人Allanon(Manu Bennett飾)，以及Eretria(Ivana Baquero)成為搭檔。
然而，既然故事主線已經(jīng)確立，本劇也已開始了制作，或許其首播集本可在動(dòng)作場景方面再下點(diǎn)兒功夫，而在劇情方面則可以再少些贅述。首集在最后幾分鐘倒是充滿了動(dòng)作場景，包括Amberle姨母的死亡，她曾是Allanon的摯愛，那可真令人失望。
總之，盡管，這部劇似乎是有了良好開端，但是MTV的觀眾們，要讓你們自己說呢?你們會(huì)回歸到《沙娜拉之劍》中嗎?
MTV debuted quite the epic series on Tuesday (Jan. 5) in “The Shannara Chronicles,” a saga based on Terry Brooks’ “Original Shannara Trilogy” book series.
The two-hour premiere was a lot of set-up — elven Princess Amberle (Poppy Drayton) realized her calling to stop a wave of demons from annihilating her world. They are set to be released as the leaves fall off the dying Ellcrys tree and in order to fight the impending horrors, she’ll need half-elf Wil Ohmsford (Austin Butler), druid Allanon (Manu Bennett) and eventually Eretria (Ivana Baquero).
While perhaps the premiere could have been a little heavier on the action and a little lighter on the set-up, now that the storyline has been established the show looks to be off and running. The final few minutes of the debut episode were filled with action, including the death of Amberle’s aunt, who is also Allanon’s former love, that was pretty disappointing.
Overall, though, it seems like a solid start. What say you, MTV viewers? Will you be returning to “The Shannara Chronicles”?
