What Doesn't Kill You Makes You Stronger

I was willing to give Hemsworth a shot. He has big shoes to fill. Must be intimidating stepping into a role that was meant for someone else.

The wig is off-putting.

The fight scenes are on par. The characters are all there.

The chemistry is off. The writing is off. I cant quite put my finger on it. It's just missing something.

Hoping it gets better.

Nothing against Liam Hemsworth, but after three seasons with Henry Cavill, viewers have built a real emotional connection to his Geralt. Changing the lead isn't just a casting decision - it disrupts the bond that made the story believable. I couldn't even get past ten minutes. Netflix seems to forget that once audiences form attachments, switching faces breaks immersion completely. It's human psychology 101.

How crazy it is that you have the most dedicated - LOVED actor, that actually reads, plays, lives the books, games and you were like - Naaw, hold my beer... You must be the most moronic people at the help that really does not like money. All the public outcry, all the negativity based on your decisions and you still went and spent a S.tonn of money on this garbage.

Look at S01-03, look at the ratings, LISTEN TO YOUR audience.

Cavil was a stronger Geralt, I think that will be pretty universally accepted. The low rating isn't for Hemsworth's performance, it was fine. The rating is a result of Netflix continuing to disregard the source material after 3 seasons and then not learning a single thing for this new season. Should have listened to the fans, Henry included.

I've been on this platform for 13 years and have rated over 1800 movies, but this is the first time I've taken the time to write out a review. That should speak louder than the 2 star rating.

Earned an extra star for good Zoltan casting.

It is all a huge misunderstanding, really. And honestly, without Henry it just feels wrong.

I was delusionally hoping that these new episodes would actually turn out to be better than this.

I can see that they're trying but it's not working at all.

At this point Yennefer and Ciri are the witchers.
