was the movie seventh son based on a book

There was even a point in the film where I thought I could actually have some fun watching this. I don't think there's any way that this film, in spite of how bad it is, actually reaches that level. This is actually a slightly better movie than 47 Ronin which, despite having some B-movie charm, was an absolute disaster in terms of taking a concept and completely ruining it by throwing every wacky idea at the wall without much of a filter. In fact, this is closer to 47 Ronin, the Keanu Reeves version, than it is to The Hobbit, LOTR, Harry Potter, etc. It's obviously not trying to compete with that.

But there's a point in the film where I realized that this was, really, more of a B-movie than something that was meant to compete with, say, The Hobbits of the world. I realize that's not exactly high praise considering that the trailers made it look like the worst movie in about 5 years and I would still consider this bad. But I digress, this film isn't nearly as bad as the trailers made it out to be. Iron Monkey is the next review, so my luck will, hopefully, change tonight. It appears I'm being struck with that lack of luck in finding a good movie to review. I'd have to go back to see how long it actually was, but let's just say it was a month.

I hated that movie so much, but after I reviewed that, there was period of about a month where I did not review a good movie.

Last time this happened it was with Cars 2. Actually it's only been close to 3 weeks since that. This streak of not having seen any good movies since The Dead Zone is never going to end.
