First of all I've not played the game or read the books so this is first exposure to The Witcher.

This series clearly wanted to be the next GOT but production quality sits somewhere between a teen BBC drama and GOT.

Average acting throughout coupled with an average script fails to draw you in to believing the characters or settings.

Some nice fit scenes. Cavill is a bit wooden but from other reviews he seems to be portraying the character well so unsure if he's average or if that's just what Gerald is like.
