An interesting twist and an unsolved mystery make VH an 8/10

Rating: 8/10 (11 May 2004)

Okay, I've said it before and I'll say it again, I go to a movie for pure unadulterated entertainment. If you are looking for deep feelings or in depth character development, go see mystic river or something. If you want a rock'em sock'em pull no punches action movie, go see Van Helsing. I laughed, and I found myself intently watching, trying to predict the next move. I left feeling I had gotten a good bargain for my matinee ticket... I would have paid full price, if necessary. Remember, guy movies are action driven, and this is definately a guy movie. So grab a tub of popcorn, but don't drink too much soda (like I did) and enjoy an inventive look at a vampire movie.
