Laikals The greatest movie ever made..!
InformationRap This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.
Payno I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.
Fulke Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.
paulclaassen For the best in action and horror, you probably can't go wrong with 'Blade 2'. The action is relentless and non-stop from beginning to end. The film features incredible photography from interesting angles and the visual effects are incredible, to say the least. Wesley Snipes is once again in top form. The creature effects are cringe-worthy - it is just so well done! Being Guillermo del Toro, though, I suppose great visuals were inevitable. The man is a so visionary!I did detest the Hollywood annoying fight to the death first encounter and then working together cliche. They justified it with the silly line "You people shot first." Seriously!!?? This dreadful scene aside (although the imagery during the scene was incredible!), the film was simply spectacular on an action and horror level.
generationofswine Wow, this tanked fast didn't it? Still, Blade II is not as bad as the next one...and neither are nearly as brilliant as the first.Those of us that know Blade know him as a man obsessed. Vampires...vampires...vampires...VAMPIRES!!!!!! BLAH! A man that wants to kill them, ALL of them, including the ones that help him and fight by his side. He's cold, he's heartless, he's a killer...at least when it comes to the occult and now, suddenly, he has a bit of a heart? No matter how small? It sort of took away from the character, I mean this is Marvel we are talking about, they are famous for heroes with serious flaws and now, Blade's biggest is stripped away? Disappointing.And then the Big Bad. Dracula? No. Varney? No. Morbius? No. We have people with no real history made us entirely for the movie. Kind of a let down, but that could just be for rights...still, the one singular good Blade did have Frost, so....was it just out of laziness? I don't know, the point is this has about the same taste of the dull, lazy action movies and little charm of even the cheap horror movies it's basically, well, it's basically Underworld with a Marvel hero.Pass. Move along. This is not the Marvel you are looking for.Not only that, but after Blade, it's a serious let down. A series should not go from awesome to kind of boring that fast.
Sam smith (sam_smithreview) Blade 2 takes what made the first Blade film good and transforms it into a different film with different characters (outside of Blade and Whistler) and a possibly deeper feel, and it works without great! This is how sequels should be made.This time, the vampires Blade has been hunting down for so many years want to make a truce so that they can recruit him to help them kill a new breed of monsters called reapers, which if you want a brief description are creatures that look like half vampires half zombies and half, whatever, with a chin that opens up wide.Blade reluctantly agrees, knowing full well that the vampires could turn on him and Whistler if things go wrong.Overall, Blade 2,is a great film for fans of Action movies, comic movies or the first one. It contains enough Imagination and gore effects to frighten the most horror film and comic book enthusiasts. The film also contains some of the best makeup I've seen in a long time.
GL84 Recruited by his vampire prey to help them out in a deadly struggle they've been recently engaged in, Blade finds that his new employers have a far more sinister agenda in play than previously told and must battle his way through this new threat.This was quite the enjoyable and highly entertaining sequel. What really gives this one some great parts here is the addition of a fun new breed of vampires found here, not only finding a great way of introducing the creatures logically from the storyline as the explanation of them being a viral mutation offspring of vampires is given a truly great touch but also managing to put their physical changes here to good use as they're really freaky looking and gets a lot from these advanced forms. That is mainly due to how it fixes one of the major problems with the original in a far more even pace this time around, by appearing more as an Action film than a true Horror film and generating action pretty much more nonstop fighting the creatures. From the teams' first encounter in the underground dance hall where the individual members have encounters of their own in the kitchen or up in the guest-rooms before the frantic, frenzied battle on the dance-floor where the team is able to overpower several of the creatures in brutal, utterly bloody battles before finally getting the upper-hand and dealing with the strays left behind which provides the further fun of the autopsy sequence where they finally learn about the creatures. Furthering that, the sewer battles are even better as there's the tense suspense of the darkened locations providing a creepy setting while there's a lot to like as they swarm over the team requiring plenty of gun-fighting and weaponry that mixes in tons of gore with furious action scenes. That even leads into the other grand action scene here where there's the series of thrilling hand-to-hand battling and even firefight scenes that are just a blast. There's even a really great amount of prosthetics here to showcase the vampire's change in physical structure rather than opting to leave it strictly CG, which is a hugely appreciated feat and all together makes this good enough to hold out for the film's positives. The biggest problem here is the rather clueless and utterly inane series of twists, which make the last half-hour quite packed with story lines and exposition rather than action the way it had been from the start, especially with several of the characters' allegiances shifting for no real reason simply to make for a bigger impact and it falls apart somewhat. Along with some dodgy and lame CGI work here showing off their superhuman abilities during fights, these here are all that's really wrong here.Rated R: Graphic Violence and Graphic Language.
