Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.

While it is a pity that the story wasn't told with more visual finesse, this is trivial compared to our real-world problems. It takes a good movie to put that into perspective.

While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.

It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.

The movie was very good, I really enjoyed it. The actors were great, the plot was good, the magic and witches refreshed - more in the buff and chant, less in the glass cannon idea.The main reason I write this review, because of other negative reviews. I do not think that the reviews mirror the reality. So please let me debunk that.The CGI is good, not over-excellent, over the top.. it's CGI. Very good looking, at some places a bit lacking but well edited when it comes to action and chanting. The story is good. Makes the mood, gives you empathy, let's you feel through of it.. yet it goes well with nowadays. Of course it's a 2 hour movie, don't expect world-end, but it has a lot. The world building is also great. We can see the world of witches, the world of man, the collision, the mix. At some places there are moments that make you think, why they do that, how that comes together.. at some other places you see war-thorn witches, very old.. which are just hints as in how did that happen? Would they be black magic users, they would be in prison forever. So it does have that. The characters have development, they work well together. The script is well done, it has seriousness, thoughts, funny moments - "Let me see you do that with an iPad." Very good. The actors.. now.. here a lot of people didn't like things. Vin Diesel plays more of the father type in his 50ies, of course without family, which play out very well. Michael Caine does a very good job, you can feel the chemistry but the gap between the worlds. It's a bit distracting, but also good, because it is also written as such. Caine is an old man, probably 60-80ies, typical old British gentleman who lived over his life, adventures, strife, etc. Which clashes with Vin-s character, since he cannot find peace or happiness. Very good. Than comes other characters - no spoilers - they do a very good job. I really liked how both the side characters had their own side feelings, they weren't cast-ed as how they look, but as what they lived. It's a surprise. Really liked Rose-s playfulness, good movements, body language. Elijah did excellent. He will surprise you too - again no spoiler - with his strong standing up and hardened stature.I don't really have more to say. It's very well done, and I really enjoyed it. I recommend it.

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

The last witch hunter is all that stands between humanity and the combined forces of the most horrifying witches in history. So i finally watched The Last Witch Hunter and this movie surprised the hell out of me it was serious, dark and funny when it was needed to and with some great performances by Vin Diesel, Elijah Wood, Rose Leslie and Michael Caine who is great as always also Julie Engelbrecht plays The Witch Queen and she is creepy as hell and the make up on her is outstanding, the special effects were very convincing and overall pretty good for the most part as for the story and the dialogue i found it really great. This is not your typical witch hunter and not your typical Fantasy Adventure it's darker in tone and it's a mix of Blade meets End of Days meets John Constantine. There was supposed to be a sequel coming out and i don't know if they will go on with it but there's still some story here and there to tell and Diesel fits the part very well so my opinion is for him to stop the Fast and the Furious Franchise and also for the love of god no more XXX films their getting old and pretty cheesy. Overall The Last Witch Hunter (2015) is not something that you haven't seen before but fans of this kind of genre including myself will not be disappointed (A+)

I was waiting for release of this movie from start of 2015. I was thinking that it will be something like 300 (only a little bit). As Vin diesel was showed in beard and in forest. It looks like he will fight witches and it will be an amazing fight. But after release of movie i saw that nothing was like , what i expected. Movie does not have any plot. It seems that writer has a very good imagination but he failed to portray it on screen. Movie is very heavy in terms of fantasy and 3d. But whole story is a crap. Vin diesel in a big actor and movie prove his acting. Basically the huge fantasy which was included in fighting scenes with witch has destroyed whole movie. Movie's story was the reason that it became a big flop for Vin Diesel. I really don't understand why some people are giving it 8/10 or even 9/10 ratings. May be due to Vin's stardom, but i think that's not what we call an "unbiased review".
