The Witcher is a book series turned Netflix television program made and produced by Hollywood big wigs. The only true reason to watch the show is for the incredible acting by the incomparable Henry Cavill. Leaving his roles as Superman and many others aside, Henry Cavill is able to completely form Gerhalt of Riviere. The first season is very delicately put together. The way the story is laid out becomes half the fun. They merge a lot of storlyines and timelines in an effort to keep the audience guessing and engaged.

Gerhalt is such an interesting character with a lot of mystery surrounding him. The rest of the cast tries their best to meet the performance that Cavill provides. For the most part they're not bad, but they lack the devotion and background that Henry Cavill has in his arsenal.

If you're a fan of fantasy, D&D, or medieval times, this television series maybe more up your alley than mine. Admittedly the only thing drawing me to watch this was Henry cavill's performance to begin with. Having now watched the series, I am incredibly regretful.

The second season makes Henry Cavill share a lot of screen time with the other actors. Often not even on screen all together. It becomes a little difficult to watch as the story seemingly has no direction and definitely leans away from Gerhalt. The stories that are at play just aren't interesting enough to keep my attention.

Knowing Cavill will eventually leave the show should dissuade anyone from even beginning to watch it. Save yourself the time and the slow burning torture akin to the show's theme.
