Movie Review |
Review by Rob
Vaux :
More than any comic-book franchise, the Blade films
are dependent upon their leading man. Though other creative
forces make their presence known (particularly in Guillermo
del Toro's superior second installment), this has always
been The Wesley Snipes Show. The title vampire hunter
is a custom fit for Snipes' onscreen presence, and the
actor clearly relishes every chance to indulge in his
character's badassery. It's telling, then, that the
third Blade film forces him to share the stage with
a pair of newcomers -- suggesting that there wasn't
enough to fill 90 minutes unless they tacked on some
gimmicks and diversions. more..
Review by Devin Faraci :
Blade was always a weird comic book character
to turn into a movie. He never even had his own title
– he was a part of Marvel’s Tomb of Dracula
comic. And almost no one knew who the heck he was, and
many of those who did considered him maybe a step above
the Fluoronic Man. But that’s actually what made
him a great choice for adaptation – he wasn’t
bogged down with fan luggage, but his character offered
the beginnings of something interesting and modern.

Reviewed by David Levine :
Look up trinity in the dictionary and it will tell you
that it's the union of three closely related members.
That's a clever guise for this, the third movie about
the half-human, half-vampire Marvel comic book hero
named Blade. Yet, the film that's lurking under this
misnomer is remarkably dissimilar to the original spectacle
of the previous two films. This unimaginative mess isn't
worthy of such a witty title -- just call it Blade III.David
S. Goyer, who wrote the first two Blade films, not only
pens this edition, but now takes the reins as its director.
At the controls, Goyer is like a kid out of control
in a candy store. With all of the eye-popping cinematic
sweets at his fingertips, Goyer samples each piece,
but can never settle on a specific style that's cohesive
and complementary to the action. The final product resembles
what you might expect from a teenager: a quick-paced
arcade game set to an obnoxiously loud, mind-numbing
metal, hip-hop, and techno score..
