Some people are just dense...

Rating: Null/10 (17 May 2004)

Saw the movie. Was expecting a train wreck. Was pleasantly surprised.
If you go to this film be prepared to check your brain at the door and just enjoy the ride. Is it stupid? Undoubtedly. Is it cheesy? Like cheddar. Is it fun? Absolutely. Don't go in expecting the movie of the year and you can have a good escape for an hour and a half. If half of the critics can make room in their little worlds for a fun and purely escapist flick like this then we could spare ourselves the deafening guffaws that so many feel obliged to spout. With the previews being what they are, what did you expect?
Lastly, for those of you confused and scoffy about Van Helsing's mysterious relationship to Dracula.... Gabriel Van Helsing is an angel. Why there is such confusion over this, I have NO idea.
