Lots of good stuff...

Rating: 8/10 (1 October 1999)

How could a movie directed by Francis Ford Coppola, starring Gary Oldman and Anthony Hopkins, with incredible costume design and make-up effects be anything but good? Bram Stoker's Dracula suffers from a weak plot and uneven pacing, but these are more than made up for by excellent acting and production values. However, if it's pure story you're interested in, try the 1979 version of Dracula starring Frank Langella - it's much better. Or see both, and decide for yourself! I rated Bram Stoker's Dracula 8/10.
