Just another Sequel

Rating: 3/10 (5 October 2002)

I liked Blade. Blade was another look at the concept of vampirism.

Blade 2 however was another movie.My wife and I sat around and tried to figure out just why Blade 2 didn't work. The special effects were good as was the general plot line and script. We finally decided that was the movie lacked was a good villain. Blade had Deacon Frost. An execellent adversary with plenty of screen time. Blade 2 had an adversary who was most noticable for being absent most of the movie. Additionally the concept of a new species of vampire who's head splits open just didn't work. If they had left that part out (and saved about a bazillion special effects dollars doing so) we both agreed it would have been a better movie.
5 out 10
