The Don

Advantages: Gruesome
Disadvantages: None

Blade. This is defiantly one of my favourite films ever. The reason why I like this film so much is because I really like gruesome films and this film is really gruesome in parts. The main actor is Wesley Snipes and he portrays a figure that is half man and half vampire. He has the strengths that vampires have, but he does not act in the same way in which vampires do. The film is all about the vampire population; Wesley Snipes plays the main character ...

Wesley snipes plays a real badass dude

Advantages: good film
Disadvantages: not a very good shelf life

Wesley snipes plays a real badass dude who is actually a vampire but isn't really a vampire because he can withstand light etc. He goes out beating up other vampires and stuff like that and there are loads of fight scenes and a few special effects that make this film worth watching. However, this film doesn't really have a shelf life, something you might rent and never watch again.. i'm not saying that the film was rubbish, just that you maybe won't ...

Blade - exciting and a new slant on the old vampire stories

Advantages: Exciting and fast moving with well-choreographed fights
Disadvantages: Not everyone will like it but it is highly recommended for those who will accept some violence

Blade is an exciting movie starring Wesley Snipes in one of his far superior roles that sets him apart from the sad performances that he delivers in movies such as Money Train etc. Simply he is a Vampire hunter and in the city there exists a large community of such evil fly-by-nights. It offers a new and interesting look at what has previously been a generally cliched area of film and is generally worth watching purely for the truly magnificent beginning ...

The daywalker

Advantages: great film
Disadvantages: --

...until a film comes out. Blade was no exception. The film stars Wesley snipes as a cross between buffy and Batman who goes out to fight vampires. General stuff ---------------------------- Like all super heroes they must have a story. Blade's mum was bitten by a vampire while she was giving birth to him. So blade was born with all the strengths of a vampire but none of their weaknesses. So blade sets out trying to find the vampire that bit his ...
...is help along the way by is sidekick who makes his weapons (which extremely cool) and all of his armor and cirium.( blade’s alternative to blood). The film has its fair share of villains to. In this film, a vampire called deacon frost set out trying to bring back to life a vampire god. But to do this he needs blades blood. So he has to track him down and capture him. This film s full of great stunts fight scenes ad acting. It has a pumping ...

Fast-paced, blood-soaked action

Advantages: Good fight scenes, stylish, bloody
Disadvantages: Comic-book concept

...comic, you can’t really expect Blade to have a good story, but it does what it can with the over-the-top concept. Stephen Dorff provides the evil bad-guy, a vampire who wants to arise the ancient ‘Blood God’ and purge the earth of humans – so naturally Snipes (Blade) has to defeat him and his armies of nasty vampires. The action is well shot, frantic and exciting, often involving lots of vampires running at our superhuman hero and getting cut up, ...
...fight scenes that really make Blade an enjoyable action film. Although not as stylish as The Matrix (some of Blade’s scenes bear an uncanny resemblance to The Matrix, by the way) or as well choreographed as a Hong Kong movie, Blade’s fights are some of the better in the genre. Overall, Blade is an exciting, fast-paced, blood-soaked action film, although the story is rather comic-book style. ...

not to be confused with gillette

Advantages: plenty of action
Disadvantages: bit gory at times

...about? Snipes is the eponymous Blade and he is attempting to stave off becoming a vampire by taking a serum manufactured by his mentor (played by Kris Kristofferson). In the meantime he is trying to rid the world of said vampires. Apparently they are everywhere and where they are not they have people working for them. These apostles have a brand to indicate their owner. Stephen Dorff is an ambitious vampire, he wants to move the game forward, conquer ...
...Of course our friend Blade has to stop him and prevent this dastardly plan from coming to fruition. This involves plenty of violence (no really). Blade of course uses a blade, a samurai sword to be precise (I guess the interest in the East occasioned by the Vietnam war will never wear off). The film is dark, creepy and violent but is an enjoyable watch. I should have pointed out, this is not a nineteenth century, Bram Stoker scenario it is set in ...

Advantages: Special effects

...day and stalk by night, Blade must confront his ultimate adversary, the omnipotent vampire overloard Deacon Frost, Stephen Dorf, who is intent on leading an underground legion of vampires to conquer mankind. Blade must use his awesome powers and razor-sharp weaponary like never before to prevent the annihilation of the entire human race. In my mind this is one of the best horror/vampire films out at the moment, the film is fast paced throughout and ...

Wow

Advantages: Visual amazing
Disadvantages: Plot is a bit thin

This film is visually stunning. If you are a martial arts fan you will absolutley love it. If not watch it anyway as it really is an excellent piece of filming visually. The one elemnt of the film that lets it down might be the lack of plot, but at the same time the film more than mnakes up for it. The opening scene is disturbing and gruesome but finished off in a style that has not been seen for some time. Wesley Snipes plays a vampire slayer whose ...

A film for all film lovers

Advantages: Action scenes
Disadvantages: Not a great story

Blade is a very good film that I rate very highly. The film involves an adult interpretation of the world of vampires in the real world who live amongst other humans. The vampires come out at night and have many victims in different towns. The vampires move from town to town and are tracked down by Blade. Blade, who is played superbly by Wesley Snipes is a half vampire as his mother was pregnant with him when she was attacked by a vampire. She died ...
...that he later gets help from by treating it with injections to keep him human. I enjoyed the film because it is very entertaining and the fight scenes are quite advanced and modern. Blade, as you might expect, uses sharp blades as his weapons although many different types of weapon are available when and where he needs it. Examples of this are UV rays etc and garlic which can kill the vampires. I would not like to give any more away in case you may ...

Stonking hehe

Advantages: OHHHHHH ITS GREAT!!!!!!
Disadvantages: hmmmmmm average decon death

...Blade is a kick ass vampire hunter, he goes around just beating the crap out of them, with hsi friend whistler making his weapons :). Anyway, he's a half vampire too, but a day walker, we doesn't explode in day light, which is handy. He has to stop Decon Frost, and up and coming evil vampire bloke (hehe) reserecting the blood god. Well I won't spoil the plot, but it makes for an utter ass kicker of a film! The acting is top notch, snipes converys ...
...if he is the unstopable vampire ass kicking machine that he is. The other actors/ actresses, potray their roles with equal acting quality, giving the film somethign the matrix lacked in places (cough Mr Neo, eh eh?). The fight sequenes are awesome, they are very brutal, fast, with lots of bone snaping and cool looking martial arts. They are very well acted out, looking very real, with all the hits looking like they do connect! The impressive camera ...

WESLEY WITH TEETH

Advantages: another good wesley snipes film, great soundtrack
Disadvantages: usual comic book stuff

...back in the "vampire" genre. Blade is literally the best vampire movie ever made. Rising from the ashes of the little known Marvel comic, its tells story of the "daywalker", a vampire who has no fear of sunlight (played superbly by Wesley Snipes). His mother bitten whilst pregnant with Blade, she dies giving birth to him, leaving Blade to live in an eternity of hell, stalking the world in pursuit of other vampires to end their existence. The story ...
...to blame for biting Mother Blade in the first place! Nice! Blade is aided and abetted by a guy called Whistler (played by a getting-on-a-bit Kris Kristofferson) who keeps him in stock of knives, guns, ammo, and a rather tasty sword (hence the name Blade). Along the way he also picks up a rather good looking female doctor, who just happens to get bitten by one of Blade's "kills". She proves just a bit useful as she happens to be a haemotologist (likes ...

Vampire hero

Advantages: Visually stunning and great story
Disadvantages: none

Blade is a vampire film with a difference as the main protagonist is a vampire who trying to protect the world from other vampires. This Stephen Norrington film is a stylish film that merges action and music to great effect. This film is based on the Marvel Comics character, Blade, who is half-human and half-vampire, after his mother was bitten by a vampire whilst pregnant with him. This quality allows to him to feel compassion towards humans and ...
...which is his one weakness. Blade has the ability to walk amongst humans during the daylight. His only ally against the vampires is Abraham Whistler. When the ambitious vampire, Deacon Frost, decides to summon the blood god, La Magra, Blade must rely on Dr Karen Jenson to help defeat Frost and save humanity. The cast for this film features a number of quality actors, as listed below. Wesley Snipes - Blade Stephen Dorff - Deacon Frost Kris Kristofferson ...

Gruesomely Awesome!

Advantages:
Disadvantages:

Vampires, gourgeous Brad Pitt, ice-cool Wesley Snipes, action, blood and lots more vampires! The story line is pretty basic and standard, but the action is totally great. It's hard to tell people what this movie is about without giving away the details! There's one scene that is really great / sick: there's this underground vampires club, just like our regular clubs dispense foam in a foam party, this vamp club showers blood!! So there's this scene ...
