The new Prime Video series House of David brings the epic scale of biblical stories to a series format, following the life of David from childhood to his battle with Goliath. While the show draws inspiration from Game of Thrones and Lord of the Rings, it struggles to develop its characters fully, with the protagonist lacking agency. However, the series shines when focusing on King Saul's family dynamics and his internal struggles with power and faith. House of David dares viewers to keep up with its intricate plot and multiple timelines, offering a fresh take on faith-based storytelling with minimal exposition.
