Hit- Wesley Snipes, Ryan Reynolds, Jessica Biel, Kris Kristofferson, Dominic Purcell, Parker Posey, Natasha Lyonne
Blade has been able to stay under the radar of the FBI… until now. In order to save himself, and still maintain a lifestyle of killing vampires, Blade must join forces with the Nightstalkers to take down his most powerful enemy to date: Dracula.
Blade is a edge of your seat movie that takes the audience on a adventurous journey. I have not seen the first two Blade films but I really enjoyed this third installment. The introduction of new characters, Hannibal King (played by Reynolds), and Abigail Whistler (played by Biel) adds a nice flare to the movie, and it also allows this new installment to play towards a younger crowd.
I never thought there would be a “poor man’s Jason Lee,” but Ryan Reynolds certainly plays his character of Hannibal similar to the style in which Jason Lee would. I would love to see these actors in a film together, the outcome would humorous. Jessica Biel does a great job of kicking booty, but after seeing Uma Thurman in Kill Bill vol. 1 & 2, I realize that no actress can live up to the way that she seriously kicked booty and took names. Bottom line: This is a great vampire movie for those who like that particular genre. Overall, great action and nice weaponry work.
Best Scene: When Hannibal has a showdown against the “dogs.”
