Всё плохо, кастинг, сюжет, сценарий, костюмы. Во что они превратили Лютика ? немного раздражаюшего, но всё же верного друга Геральта, помогаюшего и даже спасаюшего Ведьмака в разных передрягах, еще и переодически смеша читателя своими выходками, он превратился в сухого без характерного болвана. А Геральт ? Из холодного, ситуациями аморального убийцы, но всё же имеюшего лучик света в сердце, он стал в тупого альфо-самца, без характерного. Хотя в книге Геральт был не красивым и страшным. А Йэниффер ? Из ослепительной красавицы, в тоже, просто СУХУЮ неинтересную и тупую бабу, стервозную и бесишею. Про остальные очаровательные, вподающие в душу рассказы о похождениях ведьмака, говорить не приходится. Что говорить про любовную, трагичную, любовную линию Геральта и Эсси ? Про Нивеллена ? Золотого Дракона ? Прочитав эти истории, они глубоко трогают прямо в сердце чатателя, оставаясь там навсегда. Весь сок, обояния, юмор и мораль книг, был высосан, износилован, и выброшенна в помойку. Позор Нетфликс. Это просто неимоверный талант, взять, и настолько испаганнить итак готовую и принесенную на блюдечке историю. Мне искренне жаль что Ведьмак, так и не обзовелся достоиной экранизацией, как Властелин колец, Игра престолов, Гарри Поттер и другие фэнтези саги. Остаётся лишь надеется что когда-нибудь, всё же эта поистинне прекрасная серия книг получит достоиную экранизацию. А я пойду читать книги. Нетфликсу, ПОЗОР! Expand

Not much to say about it, I wasn't pissed enough to say much, in fact I feel indifferent, that's how bad it is.

It's apparently based on the books but follows **** all from the books. Yennefer behaves absolutelyAwful adaption. The bloody games have better writing then this **** The writing is painfully bad, i just found myself wincing all the time. It's apparently based on the books but follows **** all from the books. Yennefer behaves absolutely nothing like Yen, she is practically the the polar opposite of how she is described. So so disappointed as a huge fan of the books & games. One thing that stood out was, i know today it's all about diversity but the problem here is The Witcher stories are basically about intolerance & Racism of outsiders or anything different. Geralt is a monster hunter who in his travels often finds that the monsters he's hunting are far less evil then the people employing him or those in the surrounding world. As soon as you make the cast all diverse you lose that message. As soon as you disown the stories slavic roots it loses some of its power. But there are just so many problems that this doesn't even matter. You could probably still of made it work with the diversity included if the writing was better but its not. It's terrible. They are all trying to make the next GoT but GoT was a faithful adaption up until they passed the author by & that's exactly when it got bad. All these shows are just not bothering with the faithful adaption & just skipping straight to the ****ty production meddling that ****s the message & characters of the stories all up. Expand

Анджей Сапковки поддерживал натуру персонажей на протяжении восьми книг, а причастные люди к этому сериалу всё испортили с первой серии. Была нарушена последовательность событий, какого-то хуя была изменена структура повествования, например: Лютик появлялся там, где быть его не должно. Диалоги из книги, строящие суть сюжета, были варварски переиначены - из-за чего терялась логика. Ну и "вишенка" на торте: негры, которыми наполнен весь сериал. Вы когда-нибудь представляли чистую кровь, эльфскую кровь - чёрной? Дриады - негры. Как вам такое? Или эльфы - негры? Что самое смешное: среди дриад нет НИ ОДНОГО белого. Дриады, между прочим, смешивают кровь со ВСЕМИ людьми, дабы обеспечить выживание их популяции. То есть, это как? Дриады значит совокупляются ТОЛЬКО с чёрными? Или, быть может, чёрный ген является РЕЦЕССИВНЫМ по сравнению с белым? Культура западной "толерантности" порождает расизм, готовит почву для будущей войны между белыми и чёрными людьми. Люди причастные к этому сериалу - фашисты, делящие людей на чёрный и белых. Они не борются за равноправие между людьми, это левачьё их делит и стравливает друг против друга, да и, ко всему прочему, портит культурную ценность создаваемую десятилетиями. Я не призываю убрать чёрных людей, отнюдь, я призываю к разуму. Леваки нашли расизм в фильмах режиссёра Квентина Тарантино, между прочим, этот самый режиссёр призывает к равноправию между людьми. Они запрещают слова по типу: нигер, и для левых - это свобода слова, для них оскорбительно присутствие подавляющего большинства белых в славянской расе. Они наделяют этих самых негров большими правами чем белых, и для левых - это равноправие. Они исказили эти понятия. Самое страшное, что плебс ведётся на это и действует по их правилам. Дальше будет только хуже, пока не случится оказия, при которой люди поймут, что их, как бойцовых петухов, стравливают забавы ради... при которой общество оправеет. Expand

В первые же десять минут первой же серии, для наглядности, болото несколько раз магическим образом меняет свою глубину, чудовище как-то задевает ногу оленя, который вроде бы убежал и стоял далеко, но все равноЛогика потеряна во всем. В первые же десять минут первой же серии, для наглядности, болото несколько раз магическим образом меняет свою глубину, чудовище как-то задевает ногу оленя, который вроде бы убежал и стоял далеко, но все равно почему-то не убежал, маленькая девочка жалуется на перенаселение в средневековье, портал в башню почему-то ворует у бедного ведьмака плащ. Про более значительную потерю логики на протяжении всего остального сериала даже говорить страшно: *значимый персонаж* делает *выбор* несмотря на то, что ее предупреждают о последствиях, но потом жалуется на то, что ее этого выбора якобы лишают. Сам этот *выбор* она сделала вследствие того, что в государстве, где у короля в роду были эльфы, а у его жены не только эльфы в роду, но и магические способности проявляются, почему то всей душой ненавидят чародеев и эльфов. Целые главы книги, в которых отлично раскрывают персонажей, их взаимоотношения и лор урезают до "она пришла в лес - попила воду - ушла", из-за чего целые сюжетные ветки превращаются в нудную муть. С хронологией огромные проблемы, если вы не читали книги, то вы скорее всего ничего не поймете, ибо одновременно показываются события, между которыми разрыв по 100 лет, и у каких-то главных персонажей за весь сериал проходит как раз лет по 100, а у каких-то может пройти максимум неделя, и понять это можно лишь по призрачным намекам. Вся "жестокость" показывается только ради "жестокости", это не "серая мораль", тут у всех героев просто отшибло мозги и если они что-то делают, то им это будет максимально невыгодно, это будет максимально тупо, зато "жыстоко". Костюмы - дно (нильфгаардцы привет), диалоги тупые, бесполезно вкидывается куча названий, которые для простого зрителя звучат как рандомный набор букв, все эпичные моменты из книг, несмотря на бюджет, больше похожи на детский утренник, атмосфера абсолютно потеряна. Я не знаю, как они будут выкручиваться во втором сезоне, ибо дров уже наломали и многие события просто не смогут по всем законам логики произойти. Книги, даже при определенных недостатках, заслуживают того, чтобы тратить на них свое время, а поделка от Нетфликс - ни в коем случае нет. Expand

I've never rated tv before but I wasn't able to pass such a nonsense.

There are few main things to mention:
1. Story is badly written. It switch contexts extremely often. I was not even able realize what's going on. Even if I read books before!
2. Feminism agenda is very aggressive. This tv is not about witcher, it is about Yennifer and Ciri. Witcher, who is supposed to be cool guy like a Conan, is shown as dum puppet. He is dull and barely speaks words. In contrast, Yennifer's personal line is rich and emphasized.
3. Diversity agenda is also exceptionally aggressive. People of colors in every scene of this slavic fantasy. Fantasy genre has historic background in middle ages Europe where people of colors where not so common. It happened because most of kingdoms where small and essentially represented monoculture. I.e. it is normal for any middle age kingdom to be all white or all black or all asian, but not the crazy mix of different colors. But here we see just that, every kingdom here is small NY city in miniature. The Witcher universe contains multiple races but I wasn't able to realize who was elf or dwarf. Compared to that it is just impossible to miss difference in races in Lord of the Rings or Hobbit movies.
4. The cast - this is the worst cast I've ever seen. H. Cavil is exception but he can't save this show from bad writing.
This TV is complete trash. I was furious at the beginning but I've given it the second chance. Then I finally realized this show is just boring and weak.
To Netflix: do you really think this is what women want to watch? How is your analytics? I bet this sh... is not popular among women nor men anymore.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Attention: This review contains honest opinion, truth and is made by a demanding person. If you're not used to something more than slow brain degradation, please do not read or you will be offended. Please also note that there is no intention to offend anyone.

I gave 0 because I cannot rate -10 here. The only real plus of this series is Henry that is carrying this, however that's all. I could say that fight scenes are also nice, but when I did honest score rating, each minus dragged me again to 0.

First of all, I cannot even express my disappointment that people around the globe allow such humanity degradation to have place. Just few years ago, people were fighting for too brutal games movies and so on, to be banned/censored(in all cases they were wrong) But Netflix applies applies "diversity and political correctness" tags on something far worse, and people are good with it? Hypocrisy.

About the show: If you watch the series you will stumble upon art degradation, because both books and movies, are art. Art is a part of the cultural heritage of civilization, an expression of soul, something that is here to show us the beauty, capture some thoughts and inspire us to be better(in big shortcut). This TV show, kills art and we allow it on our eyes. It not only spits on the books, but also creates a false mage of what is the world of Witcher.

I have nothing against any culture, but I grew up watching movies where, whenever I've seen black or asian etc. I was like - Wow, I wonder who he is, what is he doing here? - And those characters were very well written. In Witcher, there is no evidence that any black people really exist. If they do, they might be either from far Ofir, or perhaps from Zerrikania. In both cases, why anyone would like to leave their country? In a setting where heritage, culture and bonds contribute to patriotism(which is slowly degrading nowadays) why anyone would like to leave their land? Even Nilfgardians say they don't like to fight for unknown to them lands. Being black, you risk a lot leaving your country to travel to places full of racism. Ofir? Merchants, intellectuals, they wouldn't go without strong reason and support. Zerrikans? perhaps sellswords... Instead of seeing a good written character, good placed actor and good costumes, we see tons of black people like they would live there normally, doing token roles that no one likes. I would be offended if I would be black, seriously.

Netflix is known from using black people as walking money bags, they literally are downgrading them and still no one did sue the company for it? Ridiculous.

It's not that we got only black people abused and put into any role they absolutely don't fit, we got also rest of the actors. Costumes don't fit, character descriptions don't fit, roles are poorly written. A series made for kids who think swearing is cool
No tact, no finesse
Geralt seems to be doing everything as a punishment And all character bonds, stories and so on, remind me of 80s/90s action movie directors, trying to do a plot where characters are like *they offend themselves, then shake hands, offend more and smile* - Like this would give us any depth, insight in their past?

Another thing is that this show is like Twilight would meet Game of Thrones after getting totally wasted beforehand. Witchers look like cool bandit-like kids, played by totally not fitting actors, dressed probably in some gallery store cause I cannot understand this fashion, dropping "cool" dialogues and bringing nothing to the table. I can't even understand why people allow so much money, mind and other resource wasting

According to books, Yen and Ciri are strong characters. Ciri of course has a long way but we see all that development done properly and good written. In the TV show, Yen is like Twilight bella that is soooo special... Remember series 1 dragon hunting?

According to books Yen could be raped there during fight she lost. Yes, a woman lost a fight and she was nearly raped there...does that mean the character is weak? No. She is a strong character and shietflix could just do the same, instead they made cringe scene showing how cool and strong she is...Sorry but in my opinion if you try to prove something, forcing it...that literally means that it's the opposite. So it seems netflix is more of showing that black people don't fit TV and women are weak. This is my impression watching this


Lotr as a Standard:
Have you ever wondered, why we love LOTR and many great stories aren't made that way? Because it's easier to do a piece of garbage and input tons of money into ads, and pretending how cool it is, telling you that you like it, that it's a hit, you need it, buy it. Instead of trying to reach higher. Start demanding people, let's have LOTR a like games and movies. Not stupid resource wasting, mind numbing projects that try to milk us from money.

It had potential to become something great, but instead they decided to americanize and dumb it down. I feel bad for Henry and other actors who tried to make the show better. Respect for the CGI team, although glowing eyes look really cheesy. If GoT last seasons are super **** / bad adaptation comparable to the LotR adaptation, this show is the same towards the **** GoT Season. But what can you expect... I don't care if the elvers are black or asian - maybe it doesn't matter at all. But why would you destroy the slavic, grimdark atmosphere of the show and make a **** boring generic hollywod fantasy out of it? That is embarassing. $$$$$$$ that's what the showrunners are about. Too bad they don't take their job more seriously. But whatever.

Feels bad that I had for the first time create an account to review a show because it was not a show, but a massacre of a chance to create something cool, just because of a lousy writing.

This is the key for me. If you are going to adapt award-winning source material that's beloved by many fans, whatever changes you make better have either A) a great reason behind it or B) improve the story.

So far I've watched The Expanse
This is the key for me. If you are going to adapt award-winning source material that's beloved by many fans, whatever changes you make better have either A) a great reason behind it or B) improve the story.

So far I've watched The Expanse incredibly faithfully adapt the novels to TV as best as they can and why is that show so beloved? The quality of the story is extremely high. For the non-book readers that in of itself is great. But for the book readers, they know the quality is so damn high because the quality of the novels is so damn high and so the showrunner and writers room (including the book's authors) faithfully adapted it to preserve that high-quality storytelling. I have also watched Game of Thrones in earlier seasons where they were largely faithful adaptations of award-winning novels and how beloved were they? Intensely. Even Dune recently was made highly faithfully and the book readers have loved it.

I haven't finished this season yet (almost there) but I'm scared seeing how many are saying the last two episodes are the worst of all. But so far, as someone who has read the books twice, loved them but isn't above adaptations taking a different spin (if it improves the story) I am really disappointed. Not by the visuals, the acting, or anything like that. It is entirely due to the showrunner and writer's decision to make changes needlessly that make the story WORSE, not better. Why do they feel the need to add their twists and their own touch? Likely fear or ego. They don't feel creatively excited about translating a story from one medium to another they want to make it "their own." The hubris of that when the source material is award-winning and they're just TV writers is incredible.

It sucks because I could overlook some shakey acting here and there or a bad costume or average CGI, but when the story is what I have a problem with and it's a story that requires certain things in order to result in other things down the line, it makes watching the show so tough. I end up just feeling bad for Henry who considering what he's said in multiple interviews, just wishes the show was a faithful adaptation from the novels to the screen like The Expanse has been.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. После первого сезона и его косяков, я сомневался получится ли второй. И второй сезон поистине меня удивил. Настолько смешной и сумбурный фанфик я давно не встречал. Есть ощущение, что моя десятилетняя сестра и то лучше смогла бы адаптировать книги под ТВ формат. Как только ты начинаешь видеть хоть что-то в этом "произведении искусства", тут же появляется какое-то очумелое создание(Йен без магии, Весимир, пытающийся сделать из Цири ведьмака, смерть Эскеля и так далее). Создатели явно решили пойти по какому-то своему особому пути. Если хотите настоящего ведьмака, то лучше книжки почитать или ознакомиться с серией игр, но никак не с этим порождением отбитого наглухо графомана. Expand

Let's transfer what happens in this Witcher series (Season 2) to a comparable franchise:

The Lord of the Rings is a very successful book that has been lovingly adapted into another medium, a film, close to the book and with great attention to detail, which was also very successful.

Now let's imagine someone would want to build on these successes and create a Lord of the Rings series.

In this series, Frodo and Aragorn are portrayed very well, but that's where it ends.

Gandalf is no longer a magician because he simply lost his ability during the fight against the Balrog. The Rohirrim are now partly Africans who ride elephants (the Haradrim apparently still exist somewhere in the world). Sympathetic male secondary characters as Gimli are rewritten as unsympathetic, while the young beautiful Arwen is now more of the middle-aged maternal type and the main villain is not Sauron, but the wicked witch from Hansel and Gretel who was simply squeezed into the story.

And now imagine that there are quite a few people who cheer this work ... hopefully because they have never heard of Lord of the Rings before....

Positive: -Geralt and Ciri -High quality produced -Relatively good CGI of the monsters



Negative: -Stupid, unnecessary story changes -thus unnecessarily confusing storytelling/missing explanations -Various supporting characters changed beyond recognition -Flat dialogues (Especially if you know the actual dialogues of the books) -Change of the depicted culture /origin of the countries and characters -Cheap larp costumes -Soundtrack ... when you order the Witcher Games Soundtrack on Wish.



Geralt, Ciri, Vesemir and Dandelion show that the Showmakers have read the character descriptions of the books. Some of the short stories were solidly implemented in the first season and the first episode of the second season and the armor of the Cintra throne guard didn't look like cheap plastic, but like the Renaissance armors shown in the games.

If they wanted, the Witcher material could have been put into a series very well, that is clearly shown. All the sadder that the material is unnecessarily changed for the worse.

As a Witcher fan (mainly books, I mean), I honestly hope that season 3 will never come. Surely I will try by best to stop myself from watching. This abomination does not deserve this viewership.

Had this been a new, original brand, it would still be an average title at the very most most. But if one wants to lean on an existing brand, one must be prepared to be judgeded by it's standard. There is no room for excuses like "but it is not supposed to be to similar to the games". If so: drop the "Witcher" title as bait for viewers. You cannot have it both ways. We have been promised a "Witcher" movie, we have been served something else entirely. Naming the characters alike and squeezing in (with little logical justification) some of the action scenes from the game/books is not a believeable "magic trick". It's and easy run for your money.

Furthermore, this show takes itself so seriously. Not at all as the books or even the game. Enormous waste of time. The best thing about this show, that it is so bad when compared to the original, that a lot people went back to reread the books, just to cleanse themself from this S-word of a show.

If there was ever a re-try, the only thing I would like to see is Anya back. And no: not Jaskier (although I know this is an unpopular opinion).

The show is not bad with Civil in the front seat ....but after season 1 when they try to write better story then the one in the books...everything goes in the gutter ....shaaame on the writers I wish they could think,but it's only a dreamThe show is not bad with Civil in the front seat ....but after season 1 when they try to write better story then the one in the books...everything goes in the gutter ....shaaame on the writers I wish they could think,but it's only a dream ,100 % behind Civil for leaving the Woke crew behind S2 and 3 and the deviation from the books...

I don't know what it is, modern feminists or woke equity politics, but how is it possible to mess up a story as great as The Witcher. The books and the games have already established a massive fan base, and the story is already written. AllI don't know what it is, modern feminists or woke equity politics, but how is it possible to mess up a story as great as The Witcher. The books and the games have already established a massive fan base, and the story is already written. All they have to do is transcribe it from book to screen, and you'd have the best show of the decade. It's so simple. You have to be a extremely bad writer/director/producer to make something so great so bad. It's also extremely unethical to take someone's life's work and change the source material with such disrespect. Then, just to make everything so much worse, you add on top of that fan baiting. Fan Baiting is done on purpose to not only stir up controversy for publicity but also serves as a barrier to real criticism and ensures that the show will succeed because if anyone has a different opinion, they will just be labeled as a "racist/sexist/transphobe/etc." and their opinion is ignored. It's a method to make everyone think you're virtuous when really you're just a horrible person spreading hate with anyone who has a different opinion than your own. You act like you're fighting fascism by spreading and using fascism. It's hypocrisy in action. Expand

The first two episodes are just about bearable, then the third and fourth are so bad that I longed for the end of the episodes by fast-forwarding on the remote control. The Witcher is just a rip-off of itself, weak and a sidekick for the two totally annoying and know-it-all toxic feminists Ciri and Yennefer, plus we have the following to look forward to, LGBTQ and diversitiy (In a Polish fantasy almost half the actors are black ?!) "finally" found the Witcher! Just awful and disgusting! Don't watch the series anymore, you really can't go wrong with The Witcher, but EVERYTHING was done wrong here, that's how stupid you can be when addressing or having to address a political agenda.

In the first season the timeline is confusing, but that may not be a bad thing at all, it's amazing the feeling of figuring everything out at the end.

(Some special effects are not well done, but many are not very noticeable)

The actors do a great job but Lauren has ruined what could have been an amazing series.

I wish hbo would have picked up the witcher cause then it would have been done right not this terrible netflix garbage. Even Henry who literally plays the lead, Geralt, left cause Lauren and the writers screwed this series up so bad and they are somehow going to continue by replacing Geralts actor. When has that ever worked, come on. I love the witcher universe and I'm so disappointed at how they completely ruined it, now I doubt we will ever get the witcher series we deserve. Expand

Série ridícula. Houve uma total deturpação dos livros. Tudo o que foi mudado em relação aos livros foi mudado para pior.

Laura Hissich is a troll hag. Stay away from writing, you suck. This show is terrible because one idiot was given free reign.
