Incredibly Average Movie

Rating: Null/10 (18 November 2002)

The original Blade film was awesome and I was expecting more of the same with this film but it was definitely disappointing.
The film may have been heavy on special effects and loud music but the plot-whilst intriguing-was nevertheless very poor.
On paper, Blade teaming with his hated foes to combat an even bigger threat looked good. But the film was poor. There was too much loud music, dark lights and far too much action. Now, I love action as much as the next person but every good film needs some dialogue and plot in between the action. Even the Bond films have quiet scenes in between all the action. Blade II gave me a headache.
No-one-with the exception of Blade and the Whistler-were interesting. Even the villains of the film didn't turn out to be as formidable as I thought they would be. The villains had hardly any charisma and were very lightweight villains.
Blade II was extremely disappointing and I hope Blade III will not be the same.
