Half Human/Half Vampire Blade shows how a comic book movie is suppose to be done

Rating: 8/10 (24 September 2015)

Blade Marvel's Half Human Half Vampire character when he made his film debut in 1998 the film became a hit. While the 1990s were good for cinema and movies there were some comic book films that more or less left a sour taste in movie goers mouths. There were some that were awesome some that were just a disgrace.
However Marvel's Blade really show that you can make a good comic book movie, this film just did some very smart moves first they made this a R rated film which for the story and plot in this film, they pick the right cast for the characters and the action is just well done.
The plot of the film centers around Blade (Wesley Snipes) and his mentor Whistler (Kris Kristofferson) are on a quest to hunt and destroy vampires along with putting a stop to Deacon Frost (Stephen Dorff) and his minions Quinn (Donal Logue), Mercury (Arly Jover)
However things take a change when Karen (N'Bushe Wright) gets bitten by Quinn leaving Blade to be her protector and they form a partnership to put a end to the vampires.
The story gives us a look into the origin of Blade and how he became to be which we learn as the plot advances.
Also the action and fight scenes were very well balance and had you on the edge of your seat and the way the film starts with the fight in the night club gave us what we would expect during the film it goes to show that they knew what they were doing.
Each fight scene is worth watching. Also the film has a good collection of classic lines.
Blade just goes to show that it's cool to make comic book movies and in some help restore credit into films based on Comic Books to restore the trust into making hit movies
I give Blade an 8 out of 10
