How can Thomas stand a chance against Mother Malkin, the most dangerous witch in the county?Movie Reviews
When I first saw the
trailer for the movie it shone a light on a book series that I didn't
know about. The first trailer was interesting and entertaining. The
second one was about just as good as the first one but the movie kinda
disappointed me.
Seventh Son has a lot of potential, the special effects are good, the action scenes are interesting, and the cast is amazing but something doesn't gel. There's something wrong the movie could have been better and it might be the writing or the directing . I didn't really care about the characters, I did not once I worried or cared about any of them dying.
The rhythm was also off, there wasn't really a built up, there were no stakes and I was hardly captivated. I'm sorry to say but the trailers were kind of better. I will read the books though, I feel like the best part of Seventh Son might be from the books.
