The Last Witch Hunter — Underrated? I think so.

I sat down and watched The Last Witch Hunter last night.  If you haven’t seen it you can check out the trailer here:

I gotta say, I thought the movie was pretty good.  I was surprised as the movie only receive 6.0/10 on IMDB and a lot of the movies that I don’t enjoy end up with ratings of 7 or higher.  As far as the special effects went, I thought they were pretty good for a movie with a $90 million budget.  Nothing stood out as particularly cheesy.  I guess perhaps it was a case of Vin Diesel fans seeing the movie and not getting a typical Vin Diesel movie.   I hear this can happen to actors.  I seem to recall Daniel Radcliffe making a movie after finishing the Harry Potter movies and there was a lot of concern that people would go in expecting to see Harry Potter.  In that same regard, perhaps people though Dominic Toretto was going to be killing witches with a flaming sword?

Anyway, I was pleased and I definitely recommend the movie if you are into the supernatural.
