Nope, the pitfalls in director Breck Eisner’s movie lie with pretty much everything that follows. It helps that Kaulder says almost nothing as he brutally dispatches her in the prologue, and is cursed with immortality for his trouble. Diesel’s grim, mangy warrior, Kaulder, definitely looks like a guy meant to be battling the Witch Queen (Julie Engelbrecht), a baddie with a face like dumpster-slimed twine, and a lethal misanthropy responsible for the Black Plague. As it turns out, this nonsensically vague “period” look actually works for him, in a heroically beefy, Tom Hardy sort of way. You’d think that the biggest problem facing Vin Diesel’s new action fantasy, “The Last Witch Hunter,” might be that the bullet-headed star expects us to buy him in a prodigious Viking beard, with a braided man-bun to match. Vin Diesel plays the warrior Kaulder, in modern-day New York.
