Bad and hilarious

Rating: Null/10 (4 May 2004)

Van Helsing is a beautifully looking film, with great action sequences that certainly entertained me for a while. I can recommend it to anyone who wants a fun night at the movies. Whoever, it is not a good movie. The plot is illogical and full of twists to make the movie last a little longer. The dialoges are incredibly stupid and cheesy, and so is the acting. Especially Richard Roxburgh is hilariously overacting as Dracula. All the cliche characters are here. There's the James Bond like hero (Van Helsing), his sidekick that's supposed to bring the comic relief (ironically, he was the only character that wasn't funny in this entire movie), the sexy, bitchy heroin, the charismatic bad guy, the ugly, stupid bad guy-sidekick, the dumb locals, the scary monster that only means good...
So, if you're in for a night of brainless fun with cheesy overacting by every single actor in the cast, spectaculair action and probably the stupidest dialogues of the year, Van Helsing is your flick.
