My Movie Review: This movie looks fake just like the poster, the effects was out-dated which result with too much fantasy. The movie could be better if it was release earlier but the release date shifted numerous times, it losses it's freshness. I don't understand the movie during the first half but towards the middle I just enjoyed it. The trailer looks good and my friend wants to see it that's why I watched this but didn't meet my standards.
My Favorite Term: Seventh Son of a Seventh Son

The seventh son of a seventh son is a concept from folklore regarding special powers given to, or held by, such a son. The seventh son must come from an unbroken line with no female children born between, and be, in turn, born to such a seventh son.
