Entering witchblade August 30, 2008 Witchblade - The Complete Series Hi I am a fantasy addict and when I saw the ad for witchblade- The complete Series I ordered it. I found the start quite long but the story with it's mysterious people and multiple plots running alongside the witchblade kept me intrigued. I have really enjoyed the whole series and would recomend it to anyone who likes mysteries and fantasy.
witchblade August 29, 2008 I never read the comic books/graphic novels that this series was based upon. That didn't deter me from watching the series back in 2000, nor buying it now.
The series' special effects stand up to the special effects being produced for tv and movies being made today with only one exception. The scenes where Sara walks through fire are obviously computer generated and that shows on the screen. That could have been redone to better effect with the release of the dvd.
The series fascinated me because it was one of the first shows to come out where the hero was a woman. I like that Sara typified everything good and bad about our gender. She was tough with a kind heart, she was capable of great love and a fierce sense of justice. What was right and wrong was so ingrained in Sara that you knew she was always going to do the right thing, even if she had to do it outside of what is considered correct in society.
I do have one gripe about the series. I think the mythology of the Witchblade and the bloodlines could have been better explained. I think Sara should have become custodian of the archives instead of them being passed to Ian. It was a complex series and I have no doubt it would have been explored more had the series returned for a third and fourth season. It clearly screams for a revival. Who knows, maybe Sci-Fi can find space for the reruns and see if there is still and audience for a new series.
I seem to remember more music in the original series, this dvd seems to be a bit heavy with U2. I'm a fan of U2, but it could have been more like the original with its variety of tight music.
WitchBlade the Series August 29, 2008 This was a great series. Full of action and has 4 shows per disk. They seem to flow and you can easily get caught up in them. A great rainy week-end on the couch time.
scifi queen August 23, 2008 WitchBlade is a very well made series. It was filmed when people still had the ability to write a script and develop a character.
I am angry August 21, 2008 2 out of 3 found this review helpful
PArt of the attraction of the series was the blending of the soundtrack, the music with the drama. Now the Music simply many times doesnt fit. I am angry if I had known beforehand I wouldnt have ordered the DVD set blind but waited for some real reviews. I was (am) grateful that finally witchbade has been released on DVD but now I am asking myself if I was blinded by fond memories of the series
