I've watched this series (1.season) three times now. First time i found it confusing and a bit silly at times, and had mixed feelings. Now, having watched it several times, I must say that this is near perfect. Every scene is cramped with meaning. Every detail pushes the story forward and ties links to past and future events. This is beautifully done, but to get the full impact, it really helps to know the books. Or to watch it more than once. The complexity and the way every detail plays into a whole reminds me of my favourite movie, Bladerunner. And I cant give a higher compliment. The actors are great. Especially the actors playng Geralt and Yennefer. They manage to subtly infuse this cocktail of bad CGI, fairytales and silly humor with pain and existential suffering. Having watched this three times, I would not be adverse to watch it a fourth time too. Can't wait for season 2!
