The Witcher (2019– )
10/10
Exceeding my Expectations!
2 January 2020
Being a longtime Witcher-fan, having read all the books by Andrej Sapkowski and played through all the games, needless to say I had truly high expectations to the Netflix-produced series, and the preview of the series brought the expectations even higher, feeling the choice of Henry Cavill where perfect for the role as the witcher Geralt. So the potential fall would be insane if the series suddenly should disappoint upon launch right before christmas 2019. I had however no reason to fear! The series even exceeding my expectations by far! Henry Cavill where indeed perfect for the role as Geralt! By look and by roleplay. Calm and Gritty. A perfect description of the White Wolf! And then we have those who played Yennefer, Triss and Ciri! All of them fit perfect into their roles! Slightly disapointed that the troubadour where named Jaskier and not Dandelion. But maybe there's a reason behind it? Guess time will tell as the series continue. Anyway. Every single person in this Netflix masterpiece play their role superbly! Costumes and locations look realistic and so do the effects and monsters. For me, this series exceeds Throne of Game. So s true KUDOS to all the actors as the crew behind the camera for a superbly well done job! But in the future, please do something to distinguish between the present story and the flashbacks! 10/10

Keep Distance!!
13 September 2005
Warning: Spoilers
I am a huge movie fan, and I like to watch many different kinds of movies.

However, when I got my hands on this movie, I was dubious if I really wanted to see it, hearing lots of nasty things about it.

I start it up, and the first 5 minutes or so seems OK, but then the movie starts getting so nasty, that I cant almost watch it anymore. I go on tho, but after a scene where they kill a small monkey alive, and believe me, this is no fake, I start to skip thru the movie. When I have skipped thru the movie I don't regret I did not watch it completely.

This movie is so horribly that the only good thing about it when you have watched it, you never want to watch such movies again. And in the next two weeks I simply had to watch comedies!! Because the chock I got from watching it, hurt me really bad, and I needed a solid dose of humour to regain my composure..

What I sat left with after watching this movie is, what kind of people can actually make such a movie??? And If you find any part of this movie entertaining, I would strongly advice you to visit a shrink. Because no one in their right mind would find this movie amusing at all...

Keep distance from this one! I am serious!! This movie might have stirred your curiosity, and you might find it highly interesting from all the people who says to "keep distance!!" from it. But I mean it! I wanted to see it for the same reason, but now I regret it!!!

Excellent Movie!
7 July 2005
When I was a child, I saw movies fit for a child. However, there are some movies that appeal to all ages. And even if brother Lionheart is a movie designed for kids, it have a huge influence on all ages. And definitely on me! Since I saw this movie for the first time 18 years ago, I have never forgot it it. Its story is still as clear with me as any movie I have seen this week. It is A drama, its story shows a heartbreaking history, between two brothers, and one who is very sick.

This story is the best this world have ever offered! Astrid Lindgren have time after time been hinted for Nobels Prize in Litterature, and the Director of this movie gives the story from her books among the best transfers from book to video ever! Americans makes among the world best movies! But compared to this movie, Its actors, and its director - all the Americans have to see themselves beaten! Compared to Astrid Lindgrens and Olle Hellboms "Brother Lionheart" They are all amateurs! See this with your children! But bring Lots of napkins!
