Audience Member It’s genuinely surprising how a series with such rich source material could be executed so poorly. One would almost assume there was a lack of passion or even disdain for the original story, given how far this adaptation misses the mark. Rated 0.5/5 Stars •  Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 07/20/25 Full Review Zach W. Netflix has done a solid job of saturating quality content in the world of The Witcher. However, The Witcher: Sirens of the Deep lacks originality and underutilizes its interesting protagonist. The Witcher: Sirens of the Deep incorporates plot points established in previous content, but does not further or evolve the character of Geralt in any way. With majority of the voice cast returning from the live action series, I can applaud the continuity and dedication to these stories. However, The Witcher: Sirens of the Deep retells The Little Mermaid in an adult version that is void of its own style or presence. The animation style is artistically appealing and the fight sequences are the highlight of the film, but The Witcher: Sirens of the Deep does not give the audience enough to keep them fully invested and engaged. While moments to the film are unpredictable, its similarities to The Little Mermaid are evident. The emotional notes of the film do not feel fully explored and much of the character exploration of Geralt is rehashed elements from previous projects. Overall, The Witcher: Sirens of the Deep is not a complete waste of time, but its mediocrity proves that this franchise is successful when committing to unique storytelling. The action sequences are entertaining and there is significant promise with the mystical components, but The Witcher: Sirens of the Deep does not make this story its own.

This is WAY better than the live action failure that is the netflix series. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 04/24/25 Full Review Audience Member I absolutely love these Netflix animated witcher films keep em coming Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 04/18/25 Full Review Matthew S Yet more of Netflix's creatives seemingly having read the source material this was based on, and totally disregarding it for something far inferior they came up with themselves. The short story this is based on is a touching, insightful, and ultimately heart wrenching tale, loosely based on the Hans Christian Anderson tale of The Little Mermaid. It intelligently explores bigotry, unrequited love, human power dynamics and more - all within an exciting and action packed narrative. This film however, replaces all that with an inane, comedic parody of the Disney version of the story, complete with a singing octopus baddy - and the modern Disney trope of the gender flip finale. Also one of the voice actors seemed to have never done any voice acting before - actually possibly never any acting before - it was so amateur. The rest of the cast was actually pretty good, though as per usual with Netflix's Witcher, Dandylion is played as a fool - which he is most definitely not in the books. I'm out, not going to watch any more Netflix Witcher. I'll wait until it gets rebooted in 10 years, hopefully with some talented people who understand and respect the source material.
