What a ride

Rating: 8/10 (6 May 2004)

Just got back from seeing van helsing, it was awesome, I don't understand why some of the critics didn't like it. It had action and a lot of suspense. It was like the mummy but with twice the action.
From the beginning I knew this was an action adventure movie and treated it as such. The action started from the beginning of the movie and just kept going, stopping just long enough for me to catch my breath. Don't expect a movie a deep movie with lots of dialogue and character development but rather expect rollercoaster fun with the movie.
With the wolfman on his back and the brides of dracula attacking him from the air makes you wonder why is it so hard to kill him.Even a dracula that can't be killed by stakes through the heart, holy water or crosses is no match for Van Helsing.
The special effects on this movie was better than movies in the same category just watch the final sequence as proof.
