The Witcher: Nightmare of the Wolf

Sick action, Great animation, Entertaining, Great Soundtrack, And Interesting Characters but weren't fleshed out enough, in fact it felt like there were big gaps in between the story and the story was not fleshed out nearly as much as it should have been which is why this would have worked a lot better as a series, they pretty much crammed an entire season into one movie, which took away the impact from a lot of the scenes and the story in general. Overall enjoyable and entertaining but could have been better.

It's honestly pretty good, but Netflix is rewriting some of the witcher lore and as a long time game and book fan it's just kinda sad.

It's nothing extremely good. But it met my expectations. It doesn't rely too much on the main show but still is enough connected to the lore to have a reason to exist. Vesemir is a great character too. The fight scenes are great. The animation is beautiful. The story is interesting. Overall, it's a great movie Can't wait to see the live action Vesemir in December!

Honestly I really liked the animation, soundtrack and fight scenes, but thats kinda it. I hated the ending and final plot twist, because it completely rewrites a really important plot point in the Witcher universe. If it was made somewhat well, I would be okay with that, but the way the writers did that was just bad. Story is kinda meh, and Vesemir is fun character, until you remember its Vesemir, so another rewrite. Some people coplain about diversity, honestly I did not care about that. Some parts of the story felt without any pay of. If this was made with a completely unknown witcher and completely different school of witchers, or be a completly different universe it would be 8, but the heavy disrespect to the most important parts of the lore really bumed me out.

(Edit: It may be best to treat this film's story as a re-write or alternative adaptation of The Witcher universe.) Any fans of The Witcher and its many works know and love Geralt, but we've rarely been given stories of his teacher. This movie resolves that issue by giving us a heart-felt, detailed, and beautiful, and I say again, Beautiful look at Vesemir's origins. Without spoiling anything, Nightmare of the Wolf shows us an emotional and epic telling of a critical event in Witcher history while delivering the tale of what led Vesemir to becoming the vaunted teacher to the "hero" we know. The writing was evocative. The characters were interesting and believable. The action was jaw-dropping. And holding it all together was some of the most brilliant animation to ever grace Netflix. It does have some instances of predictability and some of its pacing could've been worked out better if it were allowed more run time as a season instead of a movie, but none of it was to any significant detriment to the overall feel and enjoyment of the film.
