This Movie Can Only Be Described With One Word.

Sorry, this movie sucks

I was totally surprised at how great this film.You could feel your paranoia rise as the film went on and as you gradually learned the details of the real situation.

Clever and entertaining enough to recommend even to members of the 1%

Admittedly, Wesley Snipes' career is mostly rubbish. Blade was his pinnacle. He was born for this role.The violence here is extreme and extremely surprising considering how much the MPAA was cracking down on graphic gore in the 1990s. Blade is filled with stylized action scenes that required heavy amounts of visual effects and, like most movies made around this time, the eye-candy isn't as delicious 20 years later.

Blade is one of the few movies with a sequel that's actually better than the original, but it's still a very decent movie. It has a very dark tone and is wonderfully bloody (especially Germans should watch out for the cut version) with fast fighting choreographies. The villain was okay, as was the story - could've been more interesting.

Movie Review: "Blade" (1998)New Line Cinema as required Warner Bros. Picture affiliate, distributes an amazingly visceral comic book adaptation with first appearances of the title-given character within an almost forgotten "Marvel Universe" in series since publishing "Tomb of Dracula", starting from 1973, when director Stephen Norrington, at age 33, inherits all the trust by his producers, especially strings-pulling executives Stan Lee & Avi Arad, to bring a bold version to the movie theatres tinted in bloody reds and visual-striking scenes embedded in light & shadow with actor Wesley Snipes in the title role featuring on his best efforts of his acting career, getting supported all along in 115-Minute-Final-Cut opening with a secret night club underground scenario under pumping beats by DJ Krush, when supports all-along up front Kris Kristofferson as "Blade" medically-conditioning character of "Whistler" must give in under nemesis vampire Deacon Frost and his street-running thugs, portrayed by fully-character-inhabited Hollywood actor Stephen Dorff so that 28-year-old N'Bushe Wright as Nurse Karen, struggling with the drug of vampirism herself, where the close-to-neo science-fiction-movie in timeless decor by production designer Kirk M.

I love this film, and rate it a notch above some of the other great action films of our time because it has a really well thought out story line and action. Great music and effects for that time. And its rated R.I've seen it few times. Best Vampire movie by miles! Enjoy!
