The last witch hunter is a 2015 American dark fantasy action film directed by Breck Eisner and written by Cory Goodman. The movie stars Vin Diesel as the title character, a warrior who is cursed with immortality and tasked with protecting the world from witches. The film also features Rose Leslie, Elijah Wood, and Michael Caine in supporting roles. Set in a modern-day world where witches and warlocks exist alongside humans, the story follows Kaulder (Vin Diesel), the last of the witch hunters, who has been hunting down evil witches for centuries. Kaulder is aided by a group called the Axe and Cross, who provide him with weapons and guidance. He is also accompanied by a priest called Dolan, played by Michael Caine.
Director: Hey Vin, are you sure this story makes sense? Because, to me, it kinda seems like a story of plot holes set up by more plot holes and I think it might just end up being unintentionally hilarious." Vin Diesel: *death stare* Director: *takes another swig of whiskey*
I want to make an action-thriller on a witch-hunting theme as well, though obviously I can t aspire to being as good as that film with Jeremy Renner and Gemma Arterton as Hansel and Gretel. Because, to me, it kinda seems like a story of plot holes set up by more plot holes and I think it might just end up being unintentionally hilarious.
He is also accompanied by a priest called Dolan, played by Michael Caine. The film begins with a prologue showing Kaulder's initial encounter with the Witch Queen, who is responsible for unleashing the Black Plague upon humanity. Kaulder manages to defeat her, but not before she curses him with immortality.
The Last Witch Hunter
"There are certainly enough dopey diversions here for “The Last Witch Hunter” to be considerably more fun than it is, but even its most extravagant bouts of silliness are hampered by desultory plotting and Eisner’s oppressively synthetic mise-en-scene"
The Last Witch Hunter” does not work as campy escapism or as a guilty pleasure (. ) It’s just deadly and dreadful, loud and obnoxious, convoluted and irritating, horrible and dumb (. ) Rating: ½★ (out of four)"
"Every time there was an opportunity to do something fun, The Last Witch Hunter runs in the other direction, creating an unfortunately heavy-handed, humorless, self-serious tone for a story that should be allowed to be a little goofy"
"In its favor, The Last Witch Hunter boasts some terrific production design and digital effects (. ) Less impressively, Eisner’s movie is clogged with cardboard characters, flat dialogue and a sluggish middle act"
"Terrible (. ) The movie left me amazed — amazed that Nicolas Cage wasn’t in it (. ) Rating: ★ (out of four)"
