As a fan of the Witcher 3 video game, I was very curious to see the series adapted to television, and it did not disappoint. While the non-linear style of storytelling can be somewhat confusing, the show excels at immersing audiences into this fantasy realm. From the costumes and special effects to the choreography of the action sequences to the performances themselves (Cavill, in particular, shines as the titular Witcher), this Netflix series has the makings to become the next Game of Thrones.
