My Review of The Last Witch Hunter

        So I recently watched The Last Witch Hunter and I'm here to bring you my review. So without further ado...

        The modern world holds many secrets, but the most astounding secret of all is that witches still live amongst us; vicious supernatural creatures intent on unleashing the Black Death upon the world. Armies of witch hunters battled the unnatural enemy across the globe for centuries, including Kaulder (played by Vin Diesel), a valiant warrior who managed to slay the all-powerful Queen Witch (played by Julie Engelbrecht), decimating her followers in the process. In the moments right before her death, the Queen curses Kaulder with her own immortality, forever separating him from his beloved wife and daughter in the afterlife. Today Kaulder is the only one of his kind remaining, and has spent centuries hunting down rogue witches, all the while yearning for his long-lost loved ones. However, unbeknownst to Kaulder, the Queen Witch is resurrected and seeks revenge on her killer causing an epic battle that will determine the survival of the human race.

       

        This is an absolutely terrible film. At first glance , this seems like a really interesting concept for a film because it deals with witch hunting and it has Vin Diesel who has become a pretty big star in his own right. Instead you get a film that is so dumb that it's laughable. The film has one of the weirdest and strangest plots in the history of film and nothing about the film is cohesive. The only reason why Vin Diesel is in the film is so the studio can capitalize on his stardom from the Fast & Furious franchise, but he proves once again he cannot lead a film on his own. Even with Michael Caine and Elijah Wood in supporting the roles the film , the performances are just laughable and so terrible that you can't get behind any action they do. The visual effects are just unbearable and the film seems like a worse version of I, Frankenstein and that film was a complete joke. Overall this film is just dreadful, there are no redeemable qualities and Vin Diesel proves that he doesn't deserve to be the star of his own film. I give The Last Witch Hunter a 0 out of 10.
