Excellent comic book to movie adaptation, Wesley Snipes takes to this like a fish takes to water.

Rating: 10/10 (17 January 1999)

I feel this film is an excellent example of what can be achieved if the script was 'made for' the starring actors. This film takes a cult comic and provides a movie which does not stray from the origin's plot too much and has a very credible script for an action movie. Wesley Snipes is excellent as Blade and conveys the sense of torment that would be felt by such a character without overdoing it, I must admit that I didn't expect Stephen Dorff to make such a convincing nemesis but was pleasantly surprised by the way he adapted to the part. I would recommend this as a 'must see' film, and I am greatly looking forward to a sequel.
