Afouotos Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.
Lucia Ayala It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.
Matho The biggest problem with this movie is it’s a little better than you think it might be, which somehow makes it worse. As in, it takes itself a bit too seriously, which makes most of the movie feel kind of dull.
Hattie I didn’t really have many expectations going into the movie (good or bad), but I actually really enjoyed it. I really liked the characters and the banter between them.
vucicevicf 1.) I feel Wesley Snipes was born to be Blade. In the movie he looks and acts so natural like the role was made for him. He might be the best action hero ever, reminds me a little of Batman because of his tragedy. This makes him more human and his quest becomes very personal and emotional. 2.) Story of the movie is catchy from the start, as a viewer you instantly relate to that newborn child. As the story develops you get pulled into the dark world of modern vampires. The rest of the story is O.K. and keeps you interested. 3.) The movie gives an interesting idea that vampires could be among us in their own secret world and society.The disco scene is shocking and coupled whit perfect soundtrack. For me this is the best scene of the entire movie. 4) Action scenes are very intense and you must love the way Blade destroys his enemies. Almost showing off. The scenes are vary well shot, from interesting angles and CGI elements are used to enhance the intensity in a good way. 5) Stephen Dorff played a bad gay to truly hate, an upcoming vampire with the ambition to take over the vampire kingdom by all means. Perfect! A very entertaining 2h, do not miss!!!
lord_avenger Blade is one of the few movies with a sequel that's actually better than the original, but it's still a very decent movie. It has a very dark tone and is wonderfully bloody (especially Germans should watch out for the cut version) with fast fighting choreographies. The villain was okay, as was the story - could've been more interesting.
Pjtaylor-96-138044 Pioneering the new-wave, near turn-of-the-21st-century superhero genre long before the films that usually get credit for it and also aiming for a much more mature audience, this kick-ass comic-book adaptation is an enjoyable ride throughout with an effortlessly cool central performance and an awesome knack for action. Its nineties stylings only occasionally come close to cheesy and its relatively generic plot isn't quite so much 'seen it before' as 'I can tell where it's going to go', but the hyper-energetic action set-pieces and confidently laid-back spirit are infectious in a surprising way. 7/10
jackerhargrover Now there are many vampire shows out there with a lot of great action but we have to remember where it all started back in the nineties with movies like John Carpenter's Vampires and the Blade series starring Wesley Snipes.You don't hear much about Wesley Snipes any more but back then he was a very big star in a lot of action movies and this is probably his best work.He plays a half human half vampire who has a lot of the powers vampires do but without the problem of being killed by sunlight, etc. He has a partner (Kris Kristofferson) who helps him hunt and kill evil vampires using a combination of specially designed firearms and Snipes uses swords and martial arts.The result is a lot of great action sequences, some funny one liners and a surprisingly good story. What more could you want in a fun action movie?
