You cant tell me this show isnt better than the boring linear storytelling from 1980 crap The Mandolorian!!! I guess Netflix didnt pay you guys enough to be honest like Disney with the reviews. Its ok we know how it works. The Mandolorian was just plain boring at times no character development and just not as good but ok VENT is over....I really enjoyed this show. Didnt think it would be good but it surprised me. Was it the best show no but it definitely can be rewatched and Im definitely looking forward to season 2. I liked how they tried to do something different by telling the story through different timelines was it the best or what we are use too?? No not at all but by the end I liked how they at least tried and smoothed it out by the last episode. Not a fan of cliffhanger seasons but will give you guys a pass again for the effort. It took some brass to try and make this show being mostly connected to a video game with the books not bringing in the majority of the popularity but you pulled it off. CONGRATS!! Expand

I finished the series ...
despite some unhappy cast choices (in contrast to the literary series) I have to say that I have appreciated the netflix series enough. There are numerous ups and downs in the flow of episodes with dialogues and effects often not very inspired or credible. Despite this, I do not feel like giving a negative vote to the series and indeed I hope in the next season.

(For lovers of the sapkowski saga, do not expect a faithful transposition to the books, but rather a reinterpretation of the events)

The 1st episode felt a bit, 'B' Movie to me, but once it moved onto episode 2 and onward the series seems to have found it's footing and is more than a little enjoyable.
Most of the filming seems to be done in very limited locations, there doesn't seem to be much in the way of flow from one location to another, as if the episodes are just a series of set pieces.
That said, it does a decent job on the whole of conveying the story it's trying to tell.

Who cares about the presence of diversity in this show? If the actor can deliver lines and personify the character effectively, does it matter if their skin color doesn't fit with Eastern European mythology? The mythology focuses (as it should) on the monsters from Eastern European mythology, not the race of people from there. It's a fantasy show; it doesn't even take place in Eastern Europe or in our universe for that matter. The race of the Witcher's actors should not influence review scores.

2. I think that this show is going to be very confusing for newcomers to the Witcher universe. Mousesack is basically there to inform the audience (quite often) about the Law of Surprise and destiny. I've read the books and played the games, so I know what is going on. I do think that the show's explanation of many aspects of the universe was rushed. Hopefully they build on the foundation in season 2 and allow a larger audience to buy into this show, because I think its really strong and has potential to get even better.

3. Henry Cavill and Anya Chalotra, thank you. Geralt and Yen (sorry, Ciri, I know you're invaluable as well) are the center of this story, and you two nailed their individual personalities and their chemistry together. The flashbacks to the books and games that I had while watching this show were frequent because of your portrayal.

4. Rapid fire: action was fun, dialogue a mixed bag (main characters had better dialogue than supporting roles), and sets & costumes were up to par with other shows and movies of 2019. It was a fun ride to watch season one of this show, and I hope people give it a chance to grow into the powerhouse I think it can be. It's not quite there yet, but the future is bright for this show!

I didn’t hold much hope for Cavill’s take on Geralt but I am happy to be proven wrong. He makes the character his own while channeling the vocal and physical characteristics that made the CD Projekt Red’s version so compelling a protagonist and his performance is a pleasure to watch.

One of the critic reviews makes a comparison with game of thrones, which is a strange place to go but just as basic as you might expect from main stream commentators who see the world through the same old tired stereotypes.

Another comment was that the scripts goes from old language to modern speak, confusing the style of the tale. This is only true for one character , a bard, and this is clearly part of his character, something that made sense to me given his role as both a narrator and comic relief. Liking this will be subjective, I thought it was ace.

A couple of slow lulls in the show stopped this from being a 10, but then again anything is rarely perfect to anyone.

Go into this world without expectations, follow the story the characters tell you and allow the pieces to fall into place, and hopefully you will be rewarded and left eagerly awaiting season two as I am. Enjoy the world of The Witcher!

На правах фана серии игр и оригинальных книг, готов был обосрать там все покадрово. Но в общем, нетфликс, в очередной раз не подвел. Не смотря на куча сжв, негров дриад, зериканок, индуса Мышевура и Вельгифорца, несостыковки с книгами(хотя это вряд ли минус), и знаменитой брони нильфов, сериал все равно отрабатывает свои бесплатные 30 дней новым подписчикам нетфликса Каппа, а возможно и больше. Если без рофлов, то строго рекомендую к просмотру тем, кто знаком с вселенной ведьмака, а тем кто не одупляет че происходит, сериал может не зайти, так как многие моменты не объясняются. А тамошняя расчлиненка вообще ааа уровня, я давно такого не видел, если вообще видел. Короче рекомендую. Рофлово видеть нули на метакритик с комментами про плоский медальон и один меч у Геральта, классиик в общем. При том что юсерскор выше, чем критик скор, походу чемоданы не занесли. Expand

I especially have to point out Henry Cavills exceptional portrayal of Geralt, but also Jaskier was so well done that I felt such joy when I saw them in action on screen. Talking about the action.. The fights were amazingly well choreographed and were extremely breathtaking. The visuals of the fantastical elements was also amazing. Expand

So judging by what I saw, I really like this show. There are still things that can be improved hopefully in the next seasons, but overall a good tv show. Many people may not like the diversity in this show and even myself as a black I was like (hmm a black elf, that's... I don't know) and the reason people may have a problem with that it's because elves have probably not represented like that, so we grew up with this idea. The point is that; this is a fantasy television show. Expand

What kind of zeal they have, because the actors themselves agreed to these scenes. And there were few adequate critics left. I'll make the series 9 Expand

The Witcher is a fantasy epic. It's beautiful and it's action-packed, but it's also deeply emotional. It's a must-watch for fans of the genre, but more importantly, it works for fans of the games, of the books, and those just coming into the story

I am reading complaining about introducing black actors (who cares? unless you are a sad racist, because this not change nothing in that world full of ELVES AND MONSTER, but hey, a black person, this shouldn't be here... for god sake).
Bad acting (lol what? do we watched the same show?), sex scenes (we are not even getting closer to an average GOT episode here). Action is terrible (just watch the fight of geralt at the end of the first episode and tell me that action is terrible) ecc ecc.
Nope, it's a very good serie, they have just started and I am sure they will make a huge fantastic job.
Haters, please just grow up.

Finally a series that doesn't hold my hand like I'm a toddler. I made an account purely because I couldn't believe it was rated so poorly by "professional critics"...

The action is brutal and intense, the one liners from Geralt are hiliarious, and they explore important themes regarding the human condition and feminism (I'm a guy so easy there incels).

The cutting through time can be a bit disorienting at first but if you're more in it for the mystery (I never read the books) and you pay attention it truly is the best way to develop several characters very rapidly.

All that said. If you don't want to think and put things together then maybe just rewatch himym.

Pro tip - watch with subtitles on so you don't miss any important dialogue and turn up the brightness on your television a little.
