    The Seventh Son

    Reviewed by

    Seventh Son is a very entertaining movie but not a great one. However, when I keep reminding myself about the film's weaknesses I know that I enjoyed the movie despite its problems. Seventh Son offers some interesting special effects, and frequent action scenes. While the plot is not particularly original and the fast pace robs the film of opportunities to fully tell the story, this is a film that had me thoroughly entertained due to its simple premise providing lots of well-executed action. This is my guilty pleasure movie of 2015. Jeff Bridges and Julianne Moore, both experienced and highly regarded actors, deliver some of the best aspects of the movie. They are always worth watching, and easily provide the best performances of the film. They understand the type of movie they are in and have fun with their over-the-top characters. As Seventh Son keeps its pace quick it misses out on many opportunities to develop the characters, and by the end of the film, it becomes increasingly hard to believe that certain relationships could have realistically developed this quickly. Two of the action scenes in particular looked amazing on the big screen, and would have looked better had I seen the movie in IMAX. I saw Seventh Son in 2D and 3D is not necessary, as the action still looked great in the lower format. There is no shaky camera movements, and the battles were easy to follow and comprehend. The young at heart who do not expect an intelligent and thoughtful premise will love this movie, as the film has enough fun effects to entertain.
