Blade is a better film than I remember it being throughout, with till this day one of the greatest opening sequences of all-time.
Quality performances and cast, though it's debatable whether it's better without the title character on screen or not. He's stoic and rather robotic and like Clint Eastwood in a Western, he just can't die. It's a good show at the end, but Frost has transformed and essentially unkillable,yet still taken down. The story here's extremely similar to that of "Angel." A soul forced upon him and he fights for good, just Blades personality and past aren't explored. It's missing the little down to earth in-between moments of characterization. Angel also goes on to have a son, that's a daywalker like Blade. The film's seedy, but in a good way, with shady characters and setting and a dark tone. Though fun at the same time, with excellent villains. It does drag a bit mid to late.
