The Return of Whistler!

Rating: 5/10 (31 March 2002)

This movie was good because Whistler was in it! Sure, Blade was good but Whistler stole the movie. Whistler had all the good lines and fought really good. What I liked most was when Whistler would get mad at Scud or that one Vampire and call them names like NIPPLEHEAD. Whistler questioned Blade a few times but that was just because he was like a father figure and just looking out for him. What I liked about Blade 2 was that the bad vampires looked like Nosferatu. It's been way too long since we've had a good Vampire flick where the blood suckers truly look like Nosferatu. That is where Blade 1 lacked. If you're going to make a movie about Vampires then make them look like monsters, not some GQ person from the makeup department. Whistler never fails to deliver. Kris always plays that role well. Too bad he didn't get nominated for a best supporting actor award in Blade 1. Perhaps this will be the year for Whistler. Also, what's the deal with that good looking Vampire dying at the very end? It was too emotional and made me think of Kirsten Dunst from Interview w/ Dracula. All in all this was an ok movie. Whistler made it watchable.
