The modern world holds many secrets, but by far the most astounding is that witches still live among us; vicious supernatural creatures intent on unleashing the Black Death upon the world and putting an end to the human race once and for all. Armies of witch hunters have battled this unnatural enemy for centuries, including Kaulder, a valiant warrior who many years ago slayed the all-powerful Witch Queen, decimating her followers in the process. In the moments right before her death, the Queen cursed Kaulder with immortality, forever separating him from his beloved wife and daughter. Today, Kaulder is the last living hunter who has spent his immortal life tracking down rogue witches, all the while yearning for his long-lost family.

Fresh and Exciting
To all those who have watched it: I hope you enjoyed it as much as I do.
The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.
The role of immortal warlock Vin Diesel would have better left to me ... because I have real experiences with these supernatural hybrid creatures.The action is meager, the locations are few, too many flashbacks with less variation, the whole story is too small and too darkened.Most Actors have not really much Charisma in this film which makes the entirety of the movie a little bit flavorless.
This movie is nowhere near good as some other titles we've seen Vin Diesel acting in, like the Riddick series, but still, it keeps it's originality and is something you don't see every day. I loved the visual effects that were used a lot throughout the whole movie, they were colourful, the nature environment was beautiful and I also liked how original the Queen Witch looked. I liked the gothic setting in the visions from the past, I liked how the story was slowly revealing itself as the movie progressed, altho it was confusing at some points because of that. The only negative aspect was the lack of quality action scenes, but we've all seen a lot of Vin Diesel in action, so who needs them here anyway.
This movie had the opportunity to be really great. It settled for being merely entertaining. If you are looking for a couple of hours of escapism and can put aside the missed potential of the film you won't be disappointed. The premise is good, there are few plot holes and the casting is entertaining (rather than inspired). I don't know that I'll watch the sequel, but I'm not sorry I spent a Friday night watching the Last With Hunter.
I don't know what it is about The Last Witch Hunter, but for some reason it was really hard for me to get into this movie. Allow me to explain Synopsis: 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, a valiant warrior who managed to slay the all-powerful Queen Witch, 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. Starring: Vin Diesel, Rose Leslie, Elijah Wood Director: Breck EisnerFirst thing, let's start with a good thing. The story is, in my opinion, an exceptional story. An immortal man is only living to rid the world of witches and warlocks. Who wouldn't like a storyline like that? Yes, it is a fantasy movie with elements of horror and action and comedy, but it is still a good story.I don't know about the setting, but it worked in the favor of the movie. NYC is the hub for commerce in the entire world. So why wouldn't the witches and warlocks base all their operations out of the biggest hub in the world? It would have been nice to see someplace a bit smaller for this setting, but I can understand.As for the acting, it just seemed like most of the actors phoned their roles in. The only exception to this is Rose Leslie. I've never seen her in a movie before, but she owned her role as Chloe. The worse one of the main cast was Elijah Wood. He didn't play the part in the right way it seemed like. You could something was up from the second he came into the movie.Now, I like Vin Diesel movies, and this was one of his movies. It was made completely around him. I don't think this movie would have been made (even though it should have) without him in the lead role. Although, he did seem out of place in the movie.If you have about an hour and forty minutes to kill, you can give this movie a gander. But don't go out of your way to do so. It's not a bad movie, it's just not a must see either.Rating: 6 out of 10
