Genre is different than ads/hype

Rating: Null/10 (31 January 2004)

Hype aside, this is basically a 'special forces/thriller' type movie with a little supernatural flavor thrown in for good measure (and I'm even a gamer familiar with the White Wolf games whom the screenwriters allegedly stole ideas from). Better the 2nd time, once you realize the true style/genre of the film. Think Blade/Blade II, with a dash of romance thrown in. No academy award possibilities, but it definitely entertains as an action flick. A solid 7 of 10 here.
