Oh come on...

Rating: 5/10 (15 May 2006)

Don't be so severe with this movie. It's not great but it's not terrible. In my opinion, it's a perfect pop-corn movie to watch at midnight cable when there is nothing else to watch.
The movie has plenty of action that will keep the audience interested in what will happen next. I know, the plot is somehow dedicated for a younger audience but still uses elements from Horror movies from the 50's or 60's. The abuse of CGI use is not welcomed because it takes away the essence of classic Horror movies but still helps to create a candy for the eye movie.
I watched this on the theater and I cay say I spent 90 minutes of mindless entertainment. I left my brain at home and enjoyed mediocre entertainment. I won't probably watch it ever again but I will keep in mind that it's not as terrible as many others say. It does not try to be a Horror movie.
I think that the best thing about the movie is the performance of the actor who portrayed Dracula. The man was likable. The f/x were over the top but still had some cool features. This movie reminded me of the Castlevania video games mostly because of it's visuals and action sequences. Still the video game is better...
Not recommended but still if you catch it on cable in the future, give it a chance.
