Not a masterpiece, yet good fun

Rating: Null/10 (9 August 2004)

Not a masterpiece, yet amusing and entertaining.
Steve Sommers puts together the 3 most famous classic monsters, Dracula, Frankenstein and the wolf man and manages to make some sense out of it!
The photography looks amazing and Alan Silvestri's music is the perfect soundtrack. Some sequences are actually quite impressive, like the vampires attack and the ballroom. The actors were very well cast too. Jakcman and Beckinsale as the leads are very good and interesting and Roxburgh's Dracula is entertaining and fascinating. His brides, Aleera. Marishka and Verona are the best result of the whole movie, sexy and scary. In particular, Silvia Colloca as the Gothic raven haired bride, Verona, gives a remarkable and honest performance and you wish she had more screen time.( I would have wanted her to last till the end)
A sequel? Why not? We might be told what's the story between Dracula and van helsing!
