Colossally Silly!! Evil Ewoks??

Rating: Null/10 (7 May 2004)

This special effects sodden would-be box office colossas is merely colossally silly and sadly empty. The ONLY aspect of this tentpole that holds up to hype is the fantastic, eye-popping Art Direction.

What's with the armada of Evil Ewoks? Hysterical.
Kate Beckinsdale's uber-thick Transylvanian accent is a hoot. And she looked far more ravishing and compelling fighting werewolves in UNDERWORLD (where the CGI werewolves were also more convincing).
The much hyped threesome of Dracula's brides embody the director's confusion throughout this movie: they are either flesh and blood spouting inspid lines of dialogue, or difficult to watch hideous flying creatures meant to make 14 year old boys drool.
Too bad Stephen Sommers doesn't realize his audience isn't just 14 year old boys. A quick blast to the top of the box office will wither as word spreads about another HULK-like flop.
Total Box-Office Prediction (after 2 months): $178 million.
This version of Dracula just plain sucks.
I suppose the studio has to ask themselves whether they really want to make a TV show out of this crap.
Buyer beware.
