Better than expected!

Rating: 7/10 (9 September 1998)

Normally, I approach comic translations warely - they tend to be rather hokey and predictable, and this was no real exception. That being the case, this film was an awful lot of fun to watch, despite predictability and 2-dimensional acting. The action scenes were better than most of this genre' and the plotline made more sense than most other comic-movies. Snipes proved himself to be a consummate action-figure star once more in this film. The only disappointment I had with this film was it's en-masse treatment of most of the vampiric characters... but that's more a problem with my enthusiasm with real horror films than with this production in particular. This is not a real horror film, and horror film fans will be disappointed - but if you want a hell of an action ride, see this film!
