Review of Voleth Meir

The Witcher: Voleth Meir (2021)
Season 2, Episode 7
Tacky, crude, callous
28 September 2023
This is the kind of episode that makes one just hate what one is watching, even it is from a franchise one believes one likes. Right from the beginning words of "Come back to bed. You have far too many clothes on" (incidentally to a character one initially definitely expected to be not cast for this), all the dialogue and behaviour is horribly clichéd. There is constant crude, shrill brutality and other hysteria, and the storyline reveals more than ever to be a million miles away from the original. One can almost feel how this must have seeped into Henry Cavill's brain to turn him away from the main role he so loved, especially with one symbolic scene towards the end... The writer and director of this have zero respect from me.
