Pluses:
Good acting, descent cast, pretty close following the book, awesome show's atmosphere overall.

Minuses:
Not the best costumes, ragged narrative.

In general, a good show, I hope in the second season it will only get better.

Damn! It is really well made and Henry Cavill surprised me to the point that now I'm a fan !
I love the actors, I love every scene and soundtrack that really made lost myself inside each episode!
I'm really happy how they managed to introduce this wonderful world created by Andrzej Sapkowski, they have played really well the time-lines/events in the show to introduce you from the beginning to this fantastic saga!
Looking forward for the second seasons and for the others! Finally another series that will make history!

Так же хочу обратиться к людям которые собираются ставить 0 или 1 только за то что сериал полностью не копирует книги, если вы это пишите это означает что вы скорее всего фанат этой ведьмака, так вот не ставьте пожалуйста такие плохие оценки ведь вы этим самым будете портить статистику и есть шанс что из за таких фанатов прекратят сериал из за чего экранизацию этой великолепой вселеной могут вовсе прекратить. Спасибо что прочитал и не занижай оценеу за "не канон")

Никаких начальных знакомств с персонажами, получасовых экспозиций кто чей родственник, гигантских надписей посреди экрана "наше время"/"пятнадцать лет назад"/"восемьдесят лет назад".

Сериал вынуждает зрителя следить за диалогами, где упоминаются события, чтобы сопоставить время сюжетных арок трех главных героев относительно друг–друга. Йеннифэр — вырастает из искуроченого гадкого утенка в мага испепеляющего армии, Геральт — циник, познающий любовь, бессмысленно бегущий от всесильной Судьбы. И Цири, выброшенная той же Судьбой из принцесс в реальный жестокий мир. Весь первый сезон посвящен развитию этих персонажей, все сюжетные лини синхронизируются только в самом конце.

Если вы окончательно испорчены комиксоидной манерой подачи сюжета — сериал не для вас.

Мой респект режиссеру, сценаристам и актерам не скатившимся в тупизну. Жаль что ждать еще год

Firstly, I can totally understand why there are negative reviews related to the film making in the initial episodes. The dialogue feels dry, the costumes look plastic and the exposition is confusing. However, this is really the show just catching its stride. Eventually it becomes the Witcher we know and love. Especially by episode 3-4 the show brings everything together and we are on our way. There are a lot of shows out there with more polish but nothing with the heart of the Witcher lore. A lot of the 0 scores on here seem to be based on a perceived SJW narrative. Guys, they are just black actors. Hiring black actors isn't a SJW narrative. People from all backgrounds want to see themselves reflected in the characters on screen. It's just made for a broad audience. It's a fictional universe where the colour of your skin has no impact on character building. It isn't a historical drama where such criticisms might be more reasonable. Expand

Complain about this mature series, with dark atmosphere and not cringing dialogue. But ill bet they will give higher score to simple superficial tv shows. As I can see the main critiques come for some secondary actors being black actors? Its a fantasy world people. Its not "slavic" exclusive from only Europe. ITS FICTIONAL. Get over little politic details and because of this you give it a disastrous score like being the worst ever netflix show. Stop being crying political propagandists and enjoy the story.

In my opinion the tv show keeps the atmosphere from the witcher books and games. They keep true as possible to the lore material and it is put in good manner in the show.The scenery, the mood , the dialogue is good. The action is very good. Was binge watching the whole season until 4 am. It is a good series that is something more mature and more dark as it should be.That is what it is all about. That makes the witcher universe work and they nailed that part.

Of course like in every movie or show, there are good actors and some mediocre ones. Some of them are not so good but that doesnt mean its destroys the show. The main ones are playing good esspecially Gerald is well interpreted.

Its a good show, brings somethhing fresh to Neflix, more mature and more quality to the roster. Its a different fantasy and feels good to see something diffrent and well implemented.
Can't wait for season 2.

No bull, I didn't like the first episode.

When they killed her off, I was relievedNo bull, I didn't like the first episode. It was a bit too fan service, the story was interesting but told in an uninteresting way, and one of the characters was strangely out of place in her own plot. When they killed her off, I was relieved and prepared to go on; I was rewarded.

The show captures both aspects of the games and the books very well in a way that I think has something for everyone. My girlfriend, who has no interest in games or fantasy, was able to sit through almost the entirety of the show—something she can't do for almost every fantasy cinema.

I think the reason is that Geralt is just played so well; he's an imperfect badass who smells bad. He nails the witcher voice from the games in almost every case (except when he randomly adds an accent that's almost like an American trying to do a British accent and failing). He also has the physic and the movements of Geralt from the games.

I think Yennifer is played well, but I was hoping to see her turn a bit more snooty as the show went on. I think her shield of proper-ness could be a bit more fleshed out. The organization of the show is something that I was expecting in a fantasy series, but it leads into a climactic point and enhances the story telling in a way that turns each of the shows into a piece of a larger puzzle. I think I prefer this to it being purely Episodic.

As far as these low critic reviews, I think someone is upset about something. I've seen them focus on aesthetic, or calling certain people "incel" and I think it's clear they weren't at all open to a Universe that is both chaotic and dark. I'm not sure what they were expecting in watching the show, but their input seems wanting. TL;DR:
It has an abnormally hard-to-get-through first show (all shows have a hump in the first several episodes), but it delivers a great series that I think will make book and game fans happy. I also think, based on my girlfriend, this has an interesting enough plot that might make fans out of newcomers. Most negative critic reviews seem caught up on unimportant aspects.

I enjoyed it a lot, the fights were goodA lot of the negative reviews here seem focused on the "Forced Diversity" and casting. I understand the history of the franchise but I have little issue with that, certainly not enough to rate it 0-3. I enjoyed it a lot, the fights were good and it felt very Witcher to me. It is true enough to the series but some changes, I don't believe a strict adaptation would be good or satisfying though. My partner has never read the books or played the games and she followed along easily. Though some other reviews claim that you would struggle without that experience. Honestly, my girlfriend is kinda dumb, so her managing to follow speaks volumes.

Anyway, watch it and decide for yourself, certainly don't make a decision based on any reviews (I realise that might seem stupid coming from a review). It's increasingly clear that both professional and audience reviews are becoming more useless and washed down.

As soon as the timelines are synchronized properly, which I assume that they will be for the majority of the remaining seasons, and if the budget/time given to the CGI department is increased, I would be happy to increase my score to a 10/10, but until then, a 9 will have to suffice.

The sole concept and story got me at that point, I think The Witcher universe is amazing. Netflix series to me was just great. It's probably 1 of 3-4 series I've watched in almost one sitting. I was engrossed in the story and characters from the beginning. First scene sets the tone for Geralt perfectly. Based on what I've known about The Witcher it's just great, I want more and I won't be happy until I see it u till it's end and if they can expand on it beyond the books, I'm I. Expand

Cavill is great as Geralt and casting in general is well done. The Witcher is a true high fantasy setting which is a tough genre to pull off in film but Hissrich did a great job. The special effects are great for a first season (hopefully they improve as the show goes on) and the sword choreography is excellent (it puts GoT to shame in that area).

The show may be hard to follow for those new to the universe of The Witcher especially since it is told over multiple timelines that are not necessarily in order. Maybe read a short primer on the universe or the characters if this is the case, it is totally worth it. This is one of my few complaints about the season; it doesn’t always do the greatest job of telling you the timeline that is being depicted.

There is a shortage of true high fantasy setting shows of good quality so if you are a fan of the genre then definitely support this. For whatever it is worth Netflix earned a paid subscription from me for this show and for Stranger Things.

I would definetly recommend watching some sort of explanation on the story beforehand so you at least know about the places and monsters that are shown.
It definetly still needs work and more time to go more in-depth on lore but I think the show has great potential. Also, Toss a Coin to your Witcher is awesome.

The fight scenes are brutal and spectacular, the characters are written as interesting and grow throughout the series, and the directing looks beautiful, minus an odd use of vignette. If you’re a fan of the Witcher I could not recommend this more, my only gripe with the show is that some instances of the story seem to speed up a little too fast and can cause viewers to get lost in the time in which this tale takes place.

It is easy to get lost in the timeline, but I'm pretty sure if somebody watch all of 8 episodes and keeps attention, he will manage.
