Blade Reviews

Boring vampire blood bath isn't for kids.

Full Review | Original Score: 1/5

Allows Wesley Snipes to show off his athletic prowess, but the storytelling leaves quite a bit to be desired.

Full Review

Achieves just the right combination of lore and fetishized action movie.

great fun

| Original Score: 4/5

Ideal summer fare: quite enjoyable, and equally disposable.

Full Review | Original Score: 3/4

A reasonably diverting videogame of a movie but not successful entertainment.

Full Review | Original Score: 3/5

Hopelessly dated before its release.

Full Review

Though slick and diverting in some aspects, increasingly silly pic has trouble meshing disparate elements -- horror, superhero fantasy, straight-up action -- into a workable whole.

Full Review

An attempt to redefine cutting edge horror, this techno-vampire pic is spoiled by the same weak storytelling and flashy, computer game visuals.

Full Review

You end up with a fast-paced, sci-fi, action hero, monster movie that screams, the makers hope, for a franchise.

Full Review | Original Score: B-

[It's] dopey and lifeless.

Full Review | Original Score: 1/5

[An] enjoyable movie experience.

Full Review | Original Score: 6/10

Embora as cenas de luta sejam intensas e o roteiro seja hábil ao trazer a história de Blade para as telas, os fracos efeitos especiais e a trama envolvendo o "deus sangue" comprometem um pouco o filme. Felizmente, a continuação se revelou bem melhor.

| Original Score: 3/5

Guesomely dark and just plain unappealing.

Full Review | Original Score: D

Dark and edgy comic book characters, punctuated by a hypnotic techno soundtrack and jaw-dropping action. Snipes was born to play the role. Dorff delivers a fantastic villain.

| Original Score: 5/5

The acting is overblown, the special effects are impressive, and the violence is loud and often. Just like in a comic strip.

Full Review | Original Score: 3.5/5

Within the confines of its genre, it's a cut above the usual.

Full Review | Original Score: 3/4

Oh man! This is so the best comic book adaptation ever!

Full Review | Original Score: 3.5/4

There are lots of stunts, chase sequences and so much computer morphing that the effects house must have been offering it at discount.

Full Review | Original Score: 2.5/4

Move over, Buffy -- the summer's most exciting vampire slayer would have to be Blade.
