Critics Consensus

Buoyed by Caleb Landry Jones' haunting lead performance and Danny Elfman's lush score, Dracula reimagines the classic vampire myth as an emotionally charged gothic romance, yet its inconsistent tone holds it back from genre-defining greatness.

Here we are again, caught up in the never-ending slow-drip flood of cinematic Dracula mythology, now with Luc Besson’s wan, derivative, dutifully time-period-hopping, different-but-not-really-new take on the vampire legend.

C-

The cast’s deliveries on Besson’s punchlines are strong, and editor Lucas Fabiani keeps up his end of the deal when it comes to timing. But not even Jones isn’t funny or magnetic enough to sustain attention without the support of real suspense and allure.

2/4

The bloodsucking Count is back again, but this time in a strangely bloodless love story that even wickedly seductive fangboy Caleb Landry Jones can’t save from the cliché stockpile

This is a version that emphasizes beauty more than darkness.

‘Dracula’ may fill in more of the Count's early details, but it can’t help but imitate Coppola’s portrayal of the character.

...but it never leans far enough into that area to even register as purposefully funny. Most damning, however, is that the film looks just terrible. Garishly colored and overly lit, it can feel like we are a vampire who is suddenly subjected to sunlight.

Could’ve been longer and more detailed but loved the story and the build up but the ending wasn’t what I thought

There wasn't anything to dislike. I didn't have high hopes after Frankenstein was so good but this was amazing.
