vampires vs. werewolves - nice idea but poorly put into action

Rating: 6/10 (5 October 2003)

Really, I couldn´t think of any appropriate synopsis, cause i don´t know where to start - taking the chance to sound blunt: this movie is one of the worst I´ve seen this year ! People must be blind, ignorant or their minds blurred by all the vampire series on TV that they give this movie a 6.4 - I´m honest, I gave it a "3" (nice try but ...) Most movies are judged within the first 10 mins. So the director thought: "Well, I´ll put some guys into those black latex suits, give them some cool sunglasses (although it looks unbelievably close to matrix - never mind, nobody will notice and btw. black is cool!) and let them shoot around in the tunnels of a subway station. Hey that´s groovy !" If u think this sounds ok, u should c the result ! Most of the scene I was trying to figure out if the director has seen this stuff or did he went to the toilet at that time ? Did he intend to test our endurance, how much bad stuff we can take without leaving ... I don´t know. Waving around the camera, wasting 10 mags of ammo within one minute doesn´t make a shooting scene cool - just ridiculous. Now u could say: "Hey they are vampires ! What the heck do vampires wear but latex suits and black coats ?" I don´t know - BUT THEY DON`T LOOK LIKE THE CAST OF MATRIX ! So this movie doesn´t only TRY to copy the style of other successful movies - it fails miserably. I understand that movie makers try to profit by "matrix effects" but here u can c why u shouldn´t try to place those effect by force - it entirely ruins your work. Basically it´s all I can say so far, without spoiling everything - hope U´ll take this warning seriously :)
