A HUGH disappointment

Rating: 2/10 (24 May 2004)

Been waiting for its release for months. Love vampires and old classic horror stories, but this seems to be the worst I've seen. EVER.
Extremely long, poorly structured characters, even a Shreck alike monster with CGI effects that had been better seen in other movies before. Beckinsale's character resembles too much her Selene's Underworld. Even the story is amazingly alike ! A lousy Matrix-Underworld-XMen mix. Just add vampires... And you'll get this boring, long, bad movie.
Don't waste your time. If you want to see it anyway, wait for the DVD release and watch it comfortably at home, while chatting - laughing? - with friends. Or be prepared to get asleep in your seat while the rest of the people around you snore !
