The return of the Slayer

Rating: Null/10 (9 August 2002)

This was a fun movie that I'd been waiting for ever since I heard that "Blade," a good movie in its own right, was getting a sequel. I can't really imagine a better actor in the role of the title character than Wesley Snipes, who makes for a menacing hero. While acting isn't required for such a role, presence certainly is, something that Snipes certainly has. The action sequences are vastly improved from the previous film, thanks, doubt, to the choreographic skills of Donnie Yen, who has a minor role as a vampire in this newest chapter of the "Blade" saga. Ron Pearlman makes for an enjoyable villain and the character of Whistler makes a more than welcome return. Did I mention that Blade's love interest was hot?!!
