Bram Stoker's Dracula

Rating: 7/10 (17 June 1999)

Unimpressive return to Bram Stoker's famous work with too much misfiring on the casting, namely Ryder and Reeves, who look stylistically out of place on the one hand and verbally repellent on the other. Hopkins does what he can with the hammy character that is Van Helsing, while Oldman does some interesting things with the Count. Make up and effects are astounding, but it doesn't save the film.
