Hey, I liked it.

Rating: 8/10 (10 September 1998)

I was surprised by the quality of Blade. I went in not expecting much since in the past, many vampire movies (especially action oriented ones) have lacked quality, as well as any shred of acting talent. Not so in this case. The entire cast works in this movie. None of the actors are bad, or even miscast, the special effects are good; but not over done, and it never gets too "gothy." Wesley Snipes has really bulked up for this movie, and makes for a convincing action hero.
My main problem with this movie was the MTV style fast cuts that dominate the first 15 minutes, but if you can get past that, it's a fine movie.
