Seventh Son squanders an excellent cast and some strange storyline ingredients, leaving audiences with one disappointingly dull fantasy adventure.

You have to admire a movie which takes a gold-star cast (Julianne Moore, Jeff Bridges, Alicia Vikander) and creates such an unpolishable turd. Go to Full Review

Oscar-winners Jeff Bridges and Julianne Moore deliver two of the hammiest performances of their distinguished careers in Sergei Bodrov's overcooked sword-and-sorcery fantasy. Go to Full Review

It's a real problem when one of your leading characters sounds like a cross between Bane, the masked mutterer from The Dark Knight Rises, and a man competing in a hard-boiled-egg-eating contest. Go to Full Review

Seventh Son is a pretty by-the-book fantasy tale. The young apprentice storyline is a common one, so there aren't a lot of surprises when it comes to the plot. For me...it depends on the execution, and this is where I think the movie succeeds...mostly Go to Full Review

Julia d @Julialka Dec 14 É um desperdício de história, elenco e do tempo de quem assiste. Não tem nada parecido com a linha cronológica dos livros, é uma bagunça sem fim, momentos aleatórios que consomem muito tempo de tela, fatos que no livro Tom aprende com o tempo, aqui ele simplesmente é iluminado do além com um conhecimento. Horrível. Consegue ser pior que a adaptação do segundo filme de Percy Jackson.
