Blade


1998 action movie

Rating: 13/20

Plot: A half-man/half-vampire slices up and disintegrates vampires in an attempt to save the world from them.

Traci Lords, Matrix-style slo-mo bullet effects, urban time lapses, blood sprinklers, Kris Kristofferson, cool and bad CGI that somehow adds to the style, ultra-violence, Wesley Snapes paying a total badass, an anti-origin story that starts in medias res, a perfect dark tone filled with grays and shadows. I don't know why I decided to watch a movie with so much vampire action, but it's not awful. I stopped trying to figure out what was going on with the story and just went along for the ride.
