Wiedzmin

Wiedzmin books (the first two volumes are stories on which this fatal movie is based) and five further volumes i.e. Wiedzmin Saga are perfectly written piece of fantasy literature. I can agree that their author borrowed a lot from Tolkien but he added so much his own spice that at least in my opinion

they are much more exciting that Tolkien's Middleearth Saga.

If only we(Poles) had someone like Peter Jackson to direct the movie based on Wiedzmin Saga (and enough money, but not so much as for LOTR) that potential movie would shake Hollywood.

But for now we can only cry in despair that someone spoilt such piece of great fantasy.

Kind regards, Paul Wiedzmin's(book version) fan

Ridiculous. Only Poles find this film bad. It seems to be funny, but I'm proud, when I see, that our Film is compared to LOTOR by Peter Jackson. That was off production, made not by Hollywood. And in "Hexer" we can find no political mumble.

Of course FX is poor, should be better, but it was first film since Poland is sovereign country. Future will be marvelous. Sorry for my mistakes, and be more tolerant for form. Contents are much more important...

I think 5 is note, which should be good.

He gives the expected Gerald of Rivia. And, for a person who do not knows the books or the video game, it is enough. It is enough for a reader of Sapkowski serie., as not the bad introduction in the atmosphere . Sure, the special effects are far to be great and the storytelling is not real inspired. But, for a not familiar with this fantasy universe, "Wiedzmin" represents the first step. And it is far to be a disillusion. But a travel , not always coherent, in few scenes real silly but sustained by a beautiful performance of Michal Zebrowski and giving a good kick to the book serie.

Well, for a start, I must say that, here, in Russia, a saga of Geralt of Rivia is known and loved. Andrzej Sapkowski - a gifted writer, or, maybe, even genius of some sort - created one of the most realistic, honest, cynical and God d@mn well written fantasy worlds in a history of literature. And when such amazing material gets in a right hands well, see RPG game "Witcher" and you will understand what I am talking about.

"Vedmak\Wiedzmin" is an excellent example of the opposite outcome.

Lack of budget. Lack of directing. Lack of good script.

These three whales of Disgusting Movie Making sunken this movie, ate it alive. Acting is good, sometimes even more than good but for god sake it can not save this project.

I still have some faith though. I still hope that someday a new Vedmak movies will be created and entire world will see magnitude and breathtaking splendor of Sapkowski's books. p.s. But before that a Uwe Boll must be eliminated. Just in case, you know

This is actually a compilation of TV-series. A lot was left out, and maybe that's why it feels so inconsistent in places. Geralt was good, as was the little heiress. I'd say the TV-series was okay, the movie - not so good. Go for the books instead.
