A superb movie!!

Rating: 10/10 (17 December 1999)

Blade is one of the best action-films ever made. Wesley Snipes plays Blade, who is 1/2 human, 1/2 vampire. Blade is able to walk outside at daytime(he is therefore called "Daywalker), and garlic & silver has no effect on him. He has got the strenght of a vampire, but he has also got the thirst for blood from the vampires. To supress his thirst for blood, Blade uses a special serum. The first thing you`ll see in this movie is a woman, who is giving birth to a boy. The woman has been bitten by a vampire, she dies, but the doctors are able to save her baby, Blade. Soon there is a party in a vampire-nightclub, Blade enters it and begins killing the vampires. The action- and fight-scenes in this movie are incredibly well directed and cool to watch, the soundtrack is very suitable for this movie, and Wesley Snipes is perfect in the role as Blade. Blade is a modern adventure, and takes place in an urban environment, instead of the rural environment that most vampire-movies takes place in. Don`t let the vampire-theme put you off this movie, because Blade is first of all an action-film. This is the best movie-based-on-comic film ever!!! 10/10
