Dracula? Werewolves? Kate Beckinsale......

Rating: Null/10 (10 May 2004)

*Possible Spoilers*
Another of the 'take-it-or-leave-it' genre I'm afraid. Don't get me wrong its a film worth watching but this film needs some serious editing.
The film starts a fair bit to slowly for a film in the horror/action genre and it loses the quality of the storyline in the same way which i feel the mummy returns did by concentrating to much on the wow factor of the special effects.
This film seems to drag on towards the middle further more losing the complexity of the story.
Hugh Jackman is very well cast as the vampire hunter (van helsing) and Kate Beckinsale was on top notch as usual dispite that "transilvainian" accent.
Overall worth a watch but remember to take something nice to munch on for the pointless scenes!
