Leave your thoughts about The Witcher: Nightmare of the Wolf.
| Total FilmBradley RussellThe Witcher: Nightmare of the Wolf is better than Netflix’s live-action series. While it’s by no means perfect, it hints at a smart evolution of a franchise that’s learned the right lessons from Geralt’s debut. It’s scarier, slightly more focused, and feels like a living, breathing world – monsters and all. |
| The A.V. ClubSam BarsantiIt’s fun to see this world, with all of its inhuman monsters and monstrous humans, from a different point of view, even if it isn’t quite as refreshing or engaging as Geralt’s. |
| The Hollywood ReporterAngie HanWhile the film is unlikely to hold much appeal for Netflix subscribers who never cared about The Witcher to begin with, it’s a worthy side quest for anyone with a passing interest in seeing more of the Continent. |
| The PlaylistAsher LubertoSome of the drama is a bit wooden, but it’s an animated movie that brings real issues into a surreal world. Plus, it’s mainly an adventure. |
| IGNSamantha NelsonThe Witcher: Nightmare of the Wolf isn’t a bad film, but it fundamentally lacks an identity of its own. |
| User Review_Immortal_well animated and a nice extra backstory for the Witcher Universe. |
| User ReviewEngineer1I waited for a very long time and thought that my expectations would not be met, but in the end I was satisfied with 10/10! |
| User ReviewShallowmistThis has been a spectacular Witcher experience. |
| User ReviewProgrammerОчень интересная часть про Весемира из школы Волка посмотрел на одном дыхании жду что то подобного но уже про школу Грифонов :) |
| User ReviewBarrySHReally good movie. Prequel just before S2 of the series. |
