Film Review - Blood: The Last Vampire


The best thing about going to watch 'Blood:The Last Vampire' was that the cinema was nice and cold, providing a welcome refuge from the stifling summer heat. Alas, there was very little good about the film and I walked out after half an hour. I wanted something dark, with realistic action scenes in the style of Old Boy. Instead, I got a film that is directed squarely at Buffy fans, only with bad acting, a poor script, excessive CGI and wire-fu, and a terribly unoriginal story.

Next up on the watch list is Public Enemies. Michael Mann has produced too many bland turkeys in my book and he has got worse with time: Heat just about passed muster, Collateral fell short, and Miami Vice verged on unbearable. Let's see how Public Enemies fares.
