The Witcher Twitter review
Started and finished watching #thewitcher yesterday, 8/10! I loved it all, the fight scenes, the character development and how the story was cleverly weaved together, hoping its going to be the new #gameofthrones (but with a better ending 😇) #thewitcherreview #TheWitcherNetflix

#TheWitcher is a good dose of fantasy after #GameofThrones. Spectacular action sequences, lots of gore, and interesting characters. #TheWitcherReview #GeraltOfRivia

The writing made me feel like I was having pointless side quest dialogue with an NPC. If there's one thing Henry Cavill is good at, it's not having a personality. This is no successor to GoT. #thewitcherreview

I’m completely hooked on #TheWitcher. I never thought it would happen that Cavill could actually win me over. Tho low-key the Bard is the best character.

Crying because I just finished season 1 of #TheWitcher and I need more! #HenryCavill is so good as #GeraltofRivia but #AnyaChalotra as #Yennefer is the absolute best! pic.twitter.com/PzOGHrtS4R

I both really enjoyed & was also second hand embarrassed by The Witcher. Some things are so good, & some other things are just so bad. I honestly think this show would be awful for people w/no knowledge of any outside material. I had a hard time keeping up w/time. #TheWitcher
