The Last Witch Hunter Film Review


Finished watching The Last Witch Hunter, directed by Breck Eisner and starring Vin Diesel, Julie Engelbrecht, Michael Caine, Elijah Wood, Rose Leslie. The film opens up eight hundred years in the past as Kaulder (Vin Diesel) and a group of fellow witch hunters heading to the home of the Witch Queen (Julie Engelbrecht) in hoping that her death would end a deadly plague that has killed many people including Kaulder's wife and daughter. In her last moments the Witch Queen curses Kaulder with eternal life making him practically immortal. After hundreds of years of witch hunting Kaulder's current handler the 36th Dolan (Michael Caine) who has just retired from his role only to be found dead at his home the same night of his retirement. This prompts Kaulder and the 37th Dolan (Elijah Wood) to investigate after discovering that black magic was the source at Kaulder's previous Dolan's home. Overall this was a decent film as dives into the world of the supernatural that coexists within the real world. The action is good thanks the use of special effects that brings the supernatural elements to life. The addition of Chloe (Rose Leslie) helps to flesh out Kaulder's character thanks to Chloe's ability of entering people's dreams and memories along with the relationship she and Kaulder make though the film. 6.5/10.
