not amazing quality, but entertaining

Rating: 7/10 (22 June 2008)

most people that have left comments got it pretty accurate. it was not a great quality film, but films are not made for people to critique, they are made to entertain and in that sense, it gets an A+. the acting wasn't great and it was inaccurate from what it was based off of, but that is not always a bad thing. the new twists that they added to the van helsing storyline were interesting. there were some funny moments, especially with Carl. it will definitely not be an Oscar contender but i was entertained. the CGI, although some people may have thought cheesy, i think brought Dracula into the 21st century. this isn't the type of film to win awards and standing ovations, but is likely to get many oohs and aahs because of all the effects. Overall:
Story Plot 8/10
Acting 7/10
special effects 10/10
overall quality (everything else not covered by those 3) 5/10
30/40
7.5 Entertainment value of a high quality movie, but felt sloppy and not well done.
