Blade (1998) A Retro Film Review

Hey everyone.
I have another Film review for you. This time it's the 1998 film Blade.

What's it about:
Blade is a vampire superhero move loosely based of the Marvel comics of the same name.
staring Wesley Snipes as Blade who hunts down vampires for revenge as one killed his mother after giving birth to him and now he is trying to find that vampire and kill him.

My thoughts:
As I have not read the comic it's based on I can't compare it. On it's own its a fun filed film packed full of blood but as it's a vampire movie that's too be expected but at the same time its also a Marvel film so the blood has a cartoonish feel to it. The Acting from Wesley is a joy too watch as he rips through vampire after vampire. Also N'Bushe Wright as Dr. Karen Jenson as I guess I could call her a sidekick to Blade is a great addition too the film. All the cast have been brilliantly chosen and have the right chemistry for the film.



Final thoughts:
 This film has a great storyline and a brilliant cast and as of far one of the better Vampire Films I have seen If you have become bored of the so called Vampire films of today (cough Twilight cough) I would recommend checking this film out only if you want too though.  That's another film off my list.

NEXT UP: The Shawshank Redemption.
