Rather smarter and deeper than I had thought it would be, also mostly well directed, visually stunning and well acted. Hopefully this series will motivate upcoming fantasy shows to be even more compelling.

The Witcher does not pretend to be GoT. It is wonderfully convoluted in its own way. The pacing is good (I watched Scorsese's epic The Irishman in one sitting, so I don't have a problem with the show taking its time). It gets frenetic and takes its time as and when needed. Is it a perfect rendition of the beloved fantasy epic? Of course not, such a thing does not exist!(Except maybe The Witcher 3: the Wild Hunt) That being said it does the series justice with its tone and world-building. A few casting choices could have been better or maybe the actors could have done a better job. However, all the roles that matter from Geralt to Yennefer have all been depicted excellently. Each episode of the series is better than the last. If this trend continues, this show will be a classic indeed.
P.S. The Witcher is NOT GoT. Get over it and you might just enjoy the show.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Overall I think the show is good but to say it's great or above a 7 (as someone who's only played 2 and 3 of the games and read one of the books) would be disingenuous, it has some rather glaring flaws that should be rectified in the second season.

SPOILERS BELOW: The show is following the story of the books. Season 1 is based on the first two books which are a set of short stories. I'll give my props to the writers for managing to make it somewhat coherent however the changing between timelines is just confusing and unless you're paying full attention you will end up feeling very confused as the show goes on. That is in my opinion the biggest flaw.

The casting isn't amazing but works, standout actors being Henry Cavill as Geralt and Joey Batey as Jaskier (Dandelion). They played their roles phenomenally and the chemistry between them makes in my opinion the best moments within the whole of the series. Yennefer's actress, Anya Charlotta, grew in me as the show went on and I'd say she did a good job. However the actress playing Triss, Anna Shaffer, just didn't feel right as Triss is meant to be youthful, childish and like a big sister and I just didn't get that from her. I hope she improves next season. The rest of the cast were good and I don't feel like there were any other stand out performances.

Should you watch it, I'd say yes but DO NOT expect the next game of thrones or you will be sorely disappointed.… Expand

The monster are both Bad ass and terrifying
I also loved the focus on Yennifer and Ciri and showing the core three in different periods.

Cons:
The show does overlook some key parts from the books.
They could of done better casting wise.
The story line can be hard to follow for some people. mainly the fact that the show takes part in different time peroids.… Expand

I understand why it doesn't attract new fans as I think The Witcher show needed one exposition scene in the beginning in order to explain where's what/who/world. People who have not read the books or played at least 1 game will be terribly confused. But those who are familiar with the Witcher world will probably dig this series quite lot.
Season 1 is a prelude, settings things up for the future. That's what I liked most. Henry Cavil played the young version of Geralt spectacularly and the other characters did pretty well too. I'm hyped, pumped and excited to get to the griddy meaty part of the story in future seasons.… Expand

I love the games but still liked this too. I was sceptical at first when i saw some of the cast and saw little of the trailers, but it turned out great. the only critique i have is a major and just small little nit-picky things.
I didnt like Yennefer plot so much, it felt pushed and not alot was going on as i always wanted to go back to Geralt or ciri's story plot. Then the story time jumps was little confusing but i get why they decided to do it.

Then the casting for some characters like Triss i didnt like, the end scene with Geralt and Ciri finally meeting could have been better and nilfards armor is just stubidly **** looking hopefully that Changes in the next season. But those are just minor complains.

Overhaul great start for a series and was better than i expected it to be. I can't wait to see more as i see the passion of the actors, the crew and Netflix they had for this, especially Henry cavill who loves the Witcher and Geralt. 8/10 for me.… Expand

If you are a fan previous to watching the Netflix series I'd give it a solid 8. It is a slow burn to start but mostly lives up to expectations set forth by the books and games. Spends a bit too much time setting up the story, plot and characters, if you are unfamiliar it will be very overwhelming what is happening, who is who and where the current on screen story is taking place due to erratic time skips. Some casting choices are a bit on the safe side but overall Herny Cavill, Freaya Allan and Anya Chalotra are great castings for Geralt, Ciri and Yennefer. Only the casting of Triss Merigold is a bit of a head scratcher, while she doesn't play a huge part yet in the series she will judging by the Books and Game. Triss being such a big name in the Witcher universe it was weird not having her play a bigger role in the story.

Overall I'd recommend anyone to watch until the third episode to give it a real shot, has decent fights, true to lore monsters, politics, nudity and overall good acting. Only major downfall of the first season was the slow burn, plodding story for the first few episodes and 1 or 2 uhhhh okay at best CGI moments but nothing thats a show killer. More budget and time and this could be a great show for years to come. Oh and don't let the "critics" reviews give you a bad impression, let those idiots go back to drooling over a meh at best Star Wars Rise of Skywalker and a terrible end to Game of Thrones that they seemed to love. I think they watched completely different things than we did.… Expand
