A fantastic Vampire/Martial Arts movie with great acting and choreography!
posted on 18 Aug 2009Blade is remarkable. At first, I honestly thought it was just another vampire slasher movie. Boy, was I ever wrong. Wesley Snipes rocks! He is gorgeous and a talented actor. I saw him recently on an infomercial. It was about exercise equipment. That was when I first learned that Wesley Snipes is a Fifth Degree Black Belt in Martial Arts. It shows in this movie. I'm not exactly sure, but I believe he did some of the Martial Arts choreography for this movie. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong. I have always loved Snipes. I think he is a great actor, producer, and just a wonderful man. He carries himself well. The movie is packed with wonderful special effects. I also enjoyed seeing Kris Kristopherson in Blade. His part was well done. I liked him better in this, than in "A Star is Born." You should see Blade if you haven't already. And if you have - see it again! I can hardly wait for another one to come out. Great job Snipes, keep it up.
Gripping, action-packed, and, simply, awesome
posted on 25 Jul 2009Ok, fine, this movie isn't too hot on the whole character development, lets win an Oscar for best Screenplay type thing. Thus, if you go into this movie expecting that, and needing that to enjoy a movie, then you will be sorely dissapointed. For the rest of us, who are here to see some kick-ass action, and enjoy the sci-fi element, and, quite frankly, Blade's sheer radiant 'coolness', then kick back, settle down, and enjoy. With the awesome fight scenes, classic one-liners, brilliant hero and ubiquitous evil enemy, this movie has all the blood, gore, action and classic comic-based storyline to not only be watchable, but one to watch, and be thrilled by, again and again.
A brilliant start to a brilliant trilogy.
posted on 10 Jul 2009I have now seen all three BLADE movies so I thought I'd review them all now. This, the first film of the series, did not disappoint me when I saw it for the first time. My parents had seen it ages before I did and gave me their opinion. I agree with them on some things and disagree on some others. For instance, they complained that Stephen Dorff was pretty unconvincing as head vamp Deacon Frost. I personally thought that Dorff was very good in the role and could be very menacing at times. But this is Wesley Snipes' show and he is excellent as our hero, the half human-half vampire Blade. Known as the Daywalker, he is the bane of the existence of the vampires who have their fingers in many pies of human society. Adding excellent support is Kris Kristofferson as Abraham Whistler, Blade's mentor and weapons creator.The cast overall is very good and the action scenes, such as a battle in a vamp nightclub at the start and Blade's final assault on Frost's stronghold are staged brilliantly. Stephen Norrington is, in my opinion, an excellent director and he delivers the goods with this movie. As a fan of muscle cars, I'm also glad that Blade has some cool wheels here (a black Dodge Charger). My only gripes would be that Frost's minions, with the exception of the luckless Quinn, can be pretty faceless at times and that I think Frost should have turned into a giant monster for the final fight as was originally planned. That aside, this film kicks off the BLADE trilogy excellently and I'm glad that David S. Goyer was the writer for each one as the world he creates is truly stunning.
One of the most violent movies I ever watched
posted on 10 Jun 2009Wesley Snipes why did you take this part it sucks man. This movie is very stupid and violent. It really has no story to look up to. Its just about blade a vampire that will not die when with light which happens two one out of everyone millon vampires in this movie. Which is extremely unlikely.
Blade is just fighting everyone so he can reach and kill the worst bad guy of them all. A dump movie. The sequel sucks too. Rated R for extreme gore related violence and some strong language. 1/10 . 1 because the director wanted to entertain me and he failed but he tried so for his work I would give him one.
Blade A Decent Vampire Movie
posted on 17 May 2009Balde is a decent vampire movie from director Stephen Norrington who does a good job in making this but the lack of suspense, the dialogue at times, and a rushed finale are what weigh it down. The film does however offer just enough cool mart arts action, impressive special effects, and solid performances by the cast. Wesley Snipes is admirable in the title role of Blade a half-human half-vampire who becomes humanity's protector from the sinister forces that threaten their world. Snipes is believable in the role especially in the action/fight sequences. Stephen Dorff is effective as the villain Deacon Frost but he isn't given much to except for a few action sequences and his showdown with Blade at the end is sort of a let down. Kris Kristofferson, N'Bushe Wright, and Donal Logue are good as the supporting characters in their limited screen time. Udo Kier and Traci Lords show up for brief appearances but neither of them ever get the chance to leave an impression. The action/fight sequences are well executed featuring fierce bone crushing moves but the final fight between Blade and Frost was a bit disappointing compared to the ones that came before it. The dialogue wasn't the greatest at times either and the lack of suspense weighed down a bit but everything else made up for it's flaws. Despite it's problems Blade is a decent adaption of a comic book with enough impressive martial arts action, cool special effects, and solid performances by most of the cast who make it worth watching if only the film had been a little better I would've enjoyed it more than I did.
Get over the wow factor
posted on 14 May 2009Seeing so many favorable (American) reviews of this movie, I realize that most (American) people haven't past the "wow" factor seeing movies with good martial arts choreography. This is old news for people who are familiar with action flicks from Hong Kong. The highlight of this movie is its action scenes. However, a good martial arts choreographer does not make the movie. How about the rest? I personally think Blade is a stinker. The storyline is bad, but the editing is the worst. How many times do we have to watch that computer graphics simulation of the blood god invocation?
There are so many unnecessary scenes that drag this movie to its unnecessary 2 hours playing time.
Got Blood?
posted on 05 May 2009Blade may have started out in the comic books as a minor character in the Spider Man series, but he's the star of the show here! Be warned, this is not a comic book movie for children.Wesley Snipes is great in the title role, and Stephen Dorff is also good as the lead bad guy (though we can't be sure that Blade himself is really a good guy), but the real stars of this movie are the brilliantly-choreographed fight scenes and the eye-popping (though yucky) special effects.Rating: **1/2
Ripping yarn, Spike Lee meets Jacky Chan in Hammer Horror?
posted on 02 May 2009Terrific film, imaginative story line (well, sort of Buffy the Vamoire Slayer meets Rosemary's other baby?) great visuals.The really jerky jumpy sequences, odd angles, brilliant soundtrack, an overdose of special effects and some odd sequences make for an enjoyable evening, and I'm waiting for Blade 2, subtle telegraphing of another film in the closing scenes.Was it me or did anyone else expect the Ghostbusters to storm in at the end, in the odd tower that no-one seemed to have noticed on the skyline?And was the uber-vampire / Frost supposed to turn into a giant heamorhoid?
"The world you live in is just a sugar-coated topping."
posted on 29 Apr 2009How do you make a good comic book movie? Pick one that few people read so the expectations won't be incredibly high. Then you absolutely blow the audience away with a perfect blend of horror and action. Blade is the film that proves Wesley Snipes is truly a badass. Just take a look at that fan-freakin-tastic opening sequence. It's fast paced and throws you right into the action of the Daywalker's world. Stephen Norrington definitely has a unique visual style. The film has a certain look to it that is highly original. He makes good use out of his cast as well. Besides the obvious (Snipes being a badass), Stephen Dorff is awesome as Deacon Frost. "We're the top of the f***ing food chain." Kris Kristofferson also surprised the hell out of me in this role. He's a very good actor, and likeable to boot.
Genre legend Udo Kier puts in an appearance as well, albeit a brief one.
One of my favorite performances comes from the comic relief of Donal Logue.
The man is hilarious. The climax is equally as cool as the beginning showing the souls escaping the vampire hierarchy. It's a great effect. It shows that David Goyer has come a long way as a screenwriter since Death Warrant and Demonic Toys. All this make Blade recommended viewing and one helluva ride. Check out the sequel as well.
awesome movie
posted on 26 Apr 2009I just recently saw this movie for the first time and all i can saw is that it is very very good. I thought that it was a great take on the classic vampire movies. Basically the story is that Blade is a vampire hunter and he is trying to rid the world of vampires. This movie has some great fight scenes in it and the special effects are very well done. I definitely recommend this movie ad if you like the matrix movies this one has the same sort of a feel to it with colors and effects and such. It is worth it to check this one out. The acting and everything are all right on I hope the other two movies are just as good. Because of how surprised i am with this movie i will give it 8 out of 10 starts.
Old Blood, New Bottles
posted on 17 Apr 2009Is there anything more ridiculous yet still fascinating than vampire movies? I cannot explain their almost 100 year old appeal but Blade is another in a long list which I enjoyed and here is why.First there is a style twist in Blade combining 40's film noir with vampire conventions. (In a much stranger way Dark City also tries for this kind of look.) Second, our vampire is the opposite of the usual sophisticated blood sucking aristocrat. Blade's central character is a Schwazenegger Terminator macho antihero except that Wesley Snipes can act. Add some martial arts, lots of shooting, vampire mumbo jumbo, gross zombies and you have an above average action film. There is a Ghostbusters apocalyptic subplot that I was able to ignore almost through the entire movie until it overwhelms the story. But soon that was finished and Snipes went on with being cool. Speaking of Snipes, he just oozes a menacing intensity. Coupled with Kris Kristofferson as the grizzled side kick and N'Bushe Wright as the damsel in distress and you have the foundation for Snipes to be his big, bad self.Blade is basically an action film that has the right mix of movie styles to make it worth watching.
Best vampire film of all time
posted on 17 Apr 2009** CONTAINS SPOILERS **It is without a doubt that Blade is the best vampire film of all time. Or rather, should I say, of this "new" vampiric genre. It's not like the old vampire movies of the past [i.e. Nostrefatu & Interview the the vampire] as it seems to shock, scare and draw in the viewer's attention. As I say, the more gore - the better.The film has one of the best opening sequences in cinema history. The young and carefree adolescent male is taken to a club where vampires hang out. The blood which fires out from the sprinklers is an amazing scene and from then on relies heavily on special effects.Enter Blade [played by the sexy Wesley Snipes], as we learn, is a half-human half-vampire with all the weapons and gadgets you could ever dream of, provided to him by his long term friend, Whistler played by Kris Kristopherson. The effects in this one particular scene do not disappoint - the slaying of the vampires is truely magnificent - way better than the semi-impressive effects in TV's Buffy the Vampire Slayer.The film focuses a lot on Blade's arch-nemessis, vampire Deacon Frost who plans to become the most powerful vampire in history. Blade also must keep his eye on Dr Karen Jensen, whom he saved from an attack by Frost's right-hand man, Quinn. Jensen develops a special cerium to help Blade battle the vampire race.This is truely Wesley Snipes' finest performance. Recently I saw Blade II and while still impressed, it lacks the originality of the first movie.A must for all fans of vampires, horror, gore and straight up action.Overall score - 7 out of 10
wow
posted on 11 Apr 2009Being a fan of both snipes and the comic i was very excited about blade hitting the cinema screens. one thing that particularly encouraged me to watch the film was the eighteen certificate, this meant that the action, violence and general content would not be watered down to fit a pre pubescent audience, unlike spiderman or x men etc. and what a joy it was!! from the opening massacre to the final fight blade is not just an action movie but a film that deals with one man coming too terms with what he is. the action and special effects in the film are eye popping with snipes pulling off some genuine slick and fluid moves. the focal point of this movie is snipes and his skill with the sword, the man is a joy too behold while he decapitates vampires. the style of the film is good, moves at a lightening pace and also quality is bought to the cast by kristofferson, snipes and frost. a must for fans of comics that like something darker and a lot more violent.
One of the best vampire movies ever
posted on 05 Apr 2009This had to be one of Snipe's very best performances, and one of the best vampire movies very made. The fxs are equally impressive. In tune with the style of the late 20th century, a lot of things we thought we knew about vampires proves invalid. A little similar to John Carpenter's: Vampires, but this was better.It had style, action, adventure, and a sense of suspense. The actors hit their mark and so did the director, who did a fantastic job of crafting this comic book-to-movie movie into what Todd McFarlane only wished Spawn would've been. A fantastic piece of entertainment.
Pure, adrenaline pumping, astonishing vampire action.
posted on 09 Mar 2009Blade is the best action film since Terminator 2. It makes T2 look like a game of Rock'em Sock 'em Robots. Wesley Snipes plays Blade, a half-human half-vampire, and undoubtebly the coolest person to grace the Earth. His calm, cool looks, and his cool wisecracks make him the best superhero ever brought to the big screen. Also it has the most amazing swordfight, you just have to see it for yourself. The editing is also state of the art.If you are an action fan, a horror fan or a Wesley Snipes fan, you will love Blade. A modern action classic.PLOT: 8 DIRECTION: 8 ACTING: 8 SCRIPT: 7 ACTION/FX/SOUND: 10OVERALL: 8.5
a superb action film with ott gore.
posted on 06 Mar 2009i just wanna start by saying i absolutely love this film. Wesley snipes is perfect for the role of blade, a half human half vampire hybrid. the blade films are Wesley snipes at his absolute best.the films storyline summarised is basically vampires live amongst humans but still manage to stay hidden as they've managed to get their head round politics and in fact own half the city. but one vampire 'frost' has had enough of sneaking around behind the humans backs and wants to turn all humans into cattle, basically. then blade comes along kills a lot of vampires and tries to stop frost. but the story, though good, is not the best bit of the film, the action is. its completely over the top but thats why its so great. the action is just so damn cool. ill take one of the later fights as an example. blade is unarmed and a vampire runs at him blade pulls out some wire spins round and cuts the vampires head clean off. he then grabs the vampires glasses in mid air and puts them on. techno music now comes on as a load of vampires come running in and blade proceeds to beaten the s**t out of all of them bare handed. words cant express how stylish the whole thing looked but there are many fight scenes like this through out the film. so basically to sum up, the special effects are amazing, the musics amazing and snipes is great as blade. a must see action film that you'll love.
THE ULTIMATE VAMPIRE KILLER!
posted on 24 Aug 2009Who could play the role of Marvel's greatest heroes better than Wesley Snipes? NO ONE! He has put the "A" in action when it comes to fighting vampires. Blade, the vampyre(half-breed) who hunts the undead, and protects the human race. That's what unusual to anyone who doesn't read Marvel comics. Snipes fighting abilities came in very handy for this role. Very swift,stoic, aloof, silent, and quick. No one crosses this superhero. Kris Kristofferson did a great job playing the role of Whistler. Stoic, wise, and aware of the undead and their weaknesses. As dangerous as it is outside, vampires are the threat to society. But with Blade, everything is safe. Though the movie differs from the comics, it's still good! Rating 3.5 out of 5 stars. 9 out of 10!
