Her character Chloe is a poor juggling attempt between affably cute and a bossy jerk and just as inconsistently written as Diesel’s character. Audiences know she can do so much better, as evidenced by her wonderful recurring role in HBO’s “Game of Thrones” series. Rose Leslie’s portrayal of Chloe is disappointing. Despite his choppiness, Vin Diesel still has several scenes that paint him as entertaining character. Vin Diesel attempts to portray Kaulder as a likeable protagonist, yet ultimately falls short cycling between scenes of relaxation and wisecracking to scenes of screaming and demanding answers. They can only do so much with the cliché dialogue and poor direction they have been given. This film has an awesome selection of performers, but their characterization often falls short. He discovers a sect of witches that are determined to break the pact and seek to resurrect The Witch Queen.

His life is documented by priests who call themselves “Dolan,” and after his 36th Dolan (Michael Caine) is attacked by witches after his retirement, Kaulder investigates the attack with the help of the 37th Dolan (Elijah Wood) and a witch named Chloe (Rose Leslie). Eight hundred years later, Kaulder is still a witch hunter under The Axe and Cross and he handles threats from witches who seek to break the truce. After her death, the witches and the humans made a pact to never attack each other again. Kaulder (Vin Diesel) is a witch hunter from the 1300s cursed with eternal life after killing The Witch Queen. “The Last Witch Hunter” is an odd film to tackle.
