The Witcher: L'héritage du sang

It's like the writers were on acid. The story jumps all the time and this series isn't watchable. Netflix doesn't care about quality it's just quantity. I was looking forward to this series and really like "The Witcher" series. But this was just a mess. Still the actors did a good job and this was just a failure by the director who has to have big problems if this is the end results of a big budget series.

It's not hard to get why Henry Cavill won't be coming back as Geralt. The producers totally destroy the entire series with storytelling like this.

It's time for this series to end and if Henry will be replaced by someone else because of he likes the series to stay to the original storyline. Then it's time to stop this show.

The 1 stars are slightly exaggerating and the 10s are clearly trying to manipulate the rating. When the dust settles this show will be a 4/10. No I'm not some upset Witcher fan, I watched the two seasons. Never read the books or played the game. This is purely from a TV watchers perspective.

It clearly had potential but it was just bad. At no point was I connected to any characters, the plot development is way too fast at every step and everything that happens is just the justification of the plot, almost nothing seems logical or natural.

The writing as far as dialogue goes is amateur/hobbyist level. Super corny and melodramatic. Every cliche known to man is crammed into these four episodes and honestly the finale is an egregious offense.

I didn't even mention the effects of the music lol. That's all that needs to be said about it.

I liked the dwarf character and Michelle yeoh. I'd watch a spinoff of their adventures as long as no one else associated with this disaster was attached.

Okay, so I believe Netflix believes that the programme will be successful merely by having a diverse cast and including mystical elements. Right? WRONG! Please, please, please, can we return to good story telling as the MAIN priority, regardless of where the cast is from.

What makes this the "Witcher"? Let the Witcher be the Witcher, which is, incidentally, doing fantastic on its own as it has been for many years now. I really don't understand. Why then alter it? Why not use a different name for this? So many questions. The casting is appalling. The dialogue is the same. Netflix doesn't realise that pairing these hot trash fast food shows with games like The Witcher just serves to hurt the franchise and achieves nothing for everyone involved, especially the performers. Michelle was great in the movie Everything, Everywhere, but how does she go from that to this?

The reason there have been so many remakes of popular shows in recent years-many of which, like this one, are incredibly underwhelming and perplexing for all the fans of the original series-is because this is not the golden age of television; rather, it is the age of television in which "we have the rights to do whatever we like".

As a lover of the Witcher I wasn't able to finish a simple episode of whatever this is, but then again, there's only four episodes anyway... literally what is the point? I'm guessing it was some sort of test or something, well you have your answer: we DO NOT want to see more of this. Thank you very much.

I gave it a 2 stars because I saw few other shows that were worse, maybe enough to count them on both hands, but still this is without a doubt one of them.

The lines are horrible, it feels like it was written as a kid's school play, the acting is wooden at times (maybe because of the lines they have to work with), some of the actors were not cast well for the said roles and they simply do fit in the show. (not saying they are bad actors, they just don't fit in the roles, like the king for example... and if you add the cringe lines on top of that it just turns this into a cheap parody without jokes).

I've played all the Witcher game franchise, I've watched the show as well, and I must say I did not expect something this bad receiving a green light to actually enter production.

The bad "CGI" and cheap props used in this show, I could maybe get past, but the story telling itself, the lines, the roles assigned to some actors and the purely cringe moments made me stop watching after half of the first episode just to come here and complain.

If you're one of those that don't about any of the aspects mentioned above, and still loved the show, then I am happy for you, and I am happy knowing it ended up reaching someone that appreciates and is not just a big middle finger to everyone loving the Witcher universe, because to me that's all this seems to be, a middle finger to the fan base.

As put by film critic Roger Ebert: "Each film is only as good as its villain.

This film does not deserve a rating above three points, the plot is slurred, the characters are poorly written, the main villain is empty, there are few fighting scenes, there are almost no Monsters. I expected more, hoped that Netflix would expand the Witcher universe, but once again they screwed up.

Wednesday was the best this year and I hope Netflix will continue to collaborate with veteran directors like Tim Burton.

To those people who gave the series a rating above 5 points, I want to ask you, are you all right in the head?
