Critic Consensus: “It doesn’t fully deliver on the chilly promise of its Blair Witch-style premise, but The Last Exorcism offers a surprising number of clever thrills.”
Centurion
Starring: Michael Fassbender, Dominic West, Olga Kurylenko, Noel Clarke
Directed by: Neil Marshall
Plot: A Roman legion is dispatched to the northern region of Britain to defeat a vicious tribe of barbarians but are decimated and the survivors must attempt to make the long trip back to Roman territory while being pursued by a group of dangerous hunters.
RT Freshness: 52%
Critic Consensus: “It’s a bloody geyser of Neil Marshall’s typically stylish B-movie action, but Centurion is too focused on hacking and slashing to deliver original dialogue or interesting characters.”
