    The pacing cheapens the entire experience. The greatest part of Tolkeins worlbuilding was his willingness to dwell on the little things and let the greater world and conflict fall into the background so it could build into something terrifying. The action packed pacing doesn’t feel earned, and I don’t care about any of the minor characters or locations because they feel hamfisted in and not genuine.
