Apart from the celebs, here are some honest review from binge watchers :
Saw all episodes of #BardOfBlood , rating it 2.5 out of 5 . Background score , cinematography was really good , performances could have been better , action scenes were certainly not up to mark, ending was good. @iamsrk

Just too good. Top performance.
Characters are talking about the things they already know or should know. Accent is all over the place. And this protagonist haunted by his past is a done and dusted thing. #BardofBlood is a massive failure on all accounts. @NetflixIndia #BardOfBloodReview
