Wesley Snipes plays the dead amongst the undead.

Rating: 5/10 (1 September 1998)

Blade may have been born with the stealth and strength of a vampire, but he sure wasn't endowed with personality. Or at least, Snipes' mechanical, flavorless portrayal of the title character made me think so. Blade was my least favorite character in the film; and he really shouldn't be, right?
The ultra-modern design of the vampires' lair was a nice change from the usual gothic candle-light-and-velvet fare, but that was about all that made this movie a stand-out. A ho-hum plot, ho-hum characters, all-right action. I'm glad I paid the matinee price.
