House of the Dragon Review: A Civil War Fought in Close-Up

★★★★☆ 4/5

HBO's House of the Dragon trades Westeros's continental sprawl for a claustrophobic Targaryen family tragedy — the slow, dread-soaked slide toward a civil war everyone can see coming and no one can stop.

A handsome, well-acted return to Westeros that succeeds as chamber tragedy even when its time-jumping structure strains. Prestige spectacle with real melancholy.
