One Of The Best Vampire Movies!

Rating: 8/10 (19 March 2013)

I thought the movie was very good. The storyline is compelling, the atmosphere - realistic, and, most importantly, the movie does a fairly good job staying away from cheese and clichés, which are present in most vampire movies.
The things that, in my opinion, were not perfect:

They could've developed the characters a bit more (including the vampires!).

The Stranger was a very interesting character, but we never get to learn much about it, or see any of the activity he engages in prior to the vampires' arrival (it is employed that it's him who prepared the city for the vampires by destroying cell phones, killing dogs, etc.). they could've found a more interesting use for him throughout the movie.

There was no need for THAT much gore.

The vampires were TOO aggressive for my liking. I guess they were supposed to be that way, but I found it slightly over-the-top.

The lead actors don't look realistic for their roles. Josh looks like he's just stepped down from a Calvin Klein underwear ad poster, but, unlike his female counterpart, he CAN act. The girl also looks like a catwalk model, and she is EXTREMELY unconvincing as a law enforcement officer. Just wrong for this particular role.

Basically, the movie could've have been better had they placed more emphasis on the characters and the story, rather than just filling every frame with gore, running vampires and screaming humans. And it would've DEFINITELY be much better if they replaced the lead actors with some realistic-looking people -- these were too "glamorous" to pull off such roles.
That's about it. All in all, the movie is actually very good. Would definitely watch again, and recommend to those interested in this genre.
