Wesley Snipes Kicks Butt In His Best Ever Role

Rating: Null/10 (16 June 2002)

Let me first say that Wesley Snipes was born to play Blade the Vampire Hunter-nobody else could have done it. Snipes was 100 percent Blade.
Before I watched this movie in 1998 my favourite Wesley Snipes film had been Passenger 57. However, after watching this I came away thinking this was Snipes best role.
I mean, Blade is totally cool having all the strengths of a vampire but none of the weaknesses. And who can forget that sword of his that slices the hands of those who shouldn't be touching it?
The fight scenes in this film were some of the best I have ever seen in a movie and again, it helps that Snipes makes it all so convincing.
A lot of superhero films of the last few years have gotten a lot of good reviews but Blade seems to have been forgotten by most people-he deserves more. Blade is a brilliant action packed film not for the faint hearted. Check it out.
