Afouotos Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.

Lucia Ayala It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.

Matho The biggest problem with this movie is it’s a little better than you think it might be, which somehow makes it worse. As in, it takes itself a bit too seriously, which makes most of the movie feel kind of dull.

Hattie I didn’t really have many expectations going into the movie (good or bad), but I actually really enjoyed it. I really liked the characters and the banter between them.

jacobjohntaylor1 Blade and Blade II are better movies. But still this a great movie. See it. It has great acting. Great story line. It is very scary.

skybrick736 The last film in the Blade Trilogy is the by far the weakest in terms of writing and characters. This Blade film strayed away from the mystique of the comic book icon and more towards a group of misfits, or vampire hunting A-team. Bringing in this big league cast, which it really is big league, actually ended up hurting the film since it highlighted more colorful characters instead of leaning on a darker atmosphere. Perhaps the biggest disappointment was the arch villain Dracula, who didn't seem all powerful and was portrayed weakly by Dominic Purcell. There also seemed to be a loss edge in fighting techniques and violence, and edited differently the movie could have easily been PG-13. Admitting to Blade Trinity still being an entertaining watch it didn't provide anything memorable or frightening that the first two installments successfully created.

pv71989-1 Don't get me wrong. Blade: Trinity is an okay actioner, just not the film fans expected. The studio wanted to draw in a younger audience and David S. Goyer, writer of the first two films, tries to deliver in only his second directorial effort. Unfortunately, Goyer as director comes off more like your dad trying to rap or your mom trying to twerk.But, I digress. The movie opens with lots of explosions as Blade takes out a warehouse of vampires and chases down fleeing bloodsuckers. He causes the last vamp to crash into an outdoor mall and then, before the horrified eyes of shoppers and diners, he shoots the vampire. Only, it's not a vampire, but a human and it is all captured on video.Soon, the video goes viral and two of the most overeager FBI agents since the knuckleheads in "Die Hard" raid Whistler's hideout. Whistler, who was resurrected for "Blade II" gets knocked off quickly as he destroys his computers to prevent them being taken. It's an unceremonious end for Kris Kristofferson, who must have seen the full script and requested to be written out early.Blade is captured by the FBI, who then get usurped by local police chief Vreede (Martin Berry) and police psychiatrist Dr. Vance (an excellent John Michael Higgins). They, of course, are familiars who try to hand Blade off to head vampire Danica Talos (Posey).Blade is saved, however, by the timely entrances of Hannibal King (a funny Ryan Reynolds) and Abigail (Jessica Biel, who can't rise above eye candy status). The trio fights their way out of the police station and escape to the safe house of the Night Stalkers, a young group of modern-day vampire hunters, led by Abigail, Whistler's illegitimate daughter.Danica Talos, meanwhile, unearths Dracula (a wooden Dominic Purcell) in hopes he will take care of Blade, so they can implement their so- called "final solution."While the plot plays out like a potentially good action flick, David Goyer's direction and script hamper things quite a bit. It's a shock from the man who gave us "Dark City" and would soon introduce the Dark Knight trilogy.Reynolds as Hannibal King is funny, with plenty of great one-liners. However, he doesn't get the chance to develop further than his humor and can't come off as an effective vampire fighter. His scene at the end taking on Jarko Grimwood (wrestler Triple H) isn't believable at all.Biel is worse. Goyer does little for her other than make her as eye candy for the teen boys and young male adults. She's supposed to be hip because she listens to New Age music when she fights. Yet, Abigail Whistler also is underdeveloped. Her emotional outburst upon finding one of her fellow Night Stalkers dead is forced.The vampires are embarrassingly lame. Dracula (aka Drake) does almost nothing and is not threatening in the least. He kills some idiot store clerk and bites the clerk's girlfriend, supposedly to let the world know he's back, but we never hear of the deaths after this. He kills Vance, wounds King and tries to kill a baby before running away from Blade. Even in the climactic fight against Blade, he transforms into his true creature form but the costume (worn by stuntman Brian Steele) appears to hamper the fighting moves.Posey as Talos is just plain awful. Her acting is as wooden as a stake. Her costumes and hairstyles are hideous and it seems her fangs don't fit right during the whole movie.Callum Rennie as her brother, Asher, could have been left on the editing room floor without the audience being the wiser. Triple H's Jarko Grimwood had little to do but sneer.The rest of the cast was wasted, the exception being Eric Bogosian as Bentley Tittle, one of those conspiracy theorist talk show hosts. He only appears in the unrated edition in the prelude to Blade's opening action scene but gives more character acting than just about anyone else in the film.Finally, we have Blade. Wesley Snipes had the chance to grow as a character in the second movie. This time, though, he is forced to take a back seat to Reynolds and Biel. This is like Batman giving way to Robin and Batgirl (and we all know how that turned out). Snipes reportedly was moody and distant on set, though one could hardly blame him as it was clear the studio wanted to highlight the younger actors for a planned spin-off (seen among the deleted scenes of the DVD).The Night Stalkers are rather one-note, with Sommerfield (Natasha Lyonne) and Hedges (a wasted Patton Oswalt) getting a wisp of character building. When they all bite the dust, there is little emotion felt.The so-called Final Solution is revealed and then quickly discarded, never to be visited again, making Danica's whole reason for bringing Dracula back completely wasted.Blade being set up by Danica comes across as fake, too. We know from the first two movies that Blade and vampires can easily tell human familiars from vampires. Blade shoots a guy in the back with a silver stake and then wonders why they guy doesn't turn to ash, making Blade come off like a moron.Overall, "Blade: Trinity" is a big let-down. It's not the one-star so many other reviewers give it nor is it the superior sequel overly devoted fans believe it to be.It's just a disappointing sequel in a series where we expected to see Blade's character continue to grow while facing an even more dangerous threat. Goyer doesn't deliver. Fans wanted a big sendoff and were disappointed. Studio heads wanted a younger audience and a spin-off and were disappointed.Best word to describe "Blade: Trinity" -- Disappointing.

one-nine-eighty Blade is back for a third film in Blade Trinity and this time he's not alone as he's joined by the Nightstalkers. Alone and surrounded it seems everyone wants a piece of the day walker, the Vampires want to kill him and the living want to capture and imprison him for his apparent crimes against humanity. At the start of the film Blade is set up, he slays what he believes is a vampire only to find out it's a human in disguise, he's caught on camera and learns it's a set up when the video is played all over the media and a manhunt ensues. While getting a good old telling off from Whistler (Kristofferson) a trap is sprung and his HQ is stormed by human authorities. Whistler is killed (for real this time) but manages to detonate a self destruct command wiping out the command centre and taking all the computers and evidence down with him. Grief stricken Blade is surrounded and submits. Now in police custody it all looks bleak for the day walker. He's interrogated by the law and vampires pretending to be the law. The vampires plan to take him away and to his demise but before they even get out of the room a rescue mission is sprung by Hannibal Kane (Ryan Reynolds) and Abigail Whistler (Whistlers daughter, played by Jessica Biel). They escape and take Blade to their own HQ where he learns about other Vampire resistance groups/ cells. They advise Blade that the Vampire current plan is to resurrect the very first vampire, Dracula (Dominic Purcell) himself. The chase is on, kill Dracula or be killed and watch as the world dies. While all looks bleak there is also a glimmer of hope as the team have finally made a compound that can cure vampirism but it has to be injected into the alphas vampire, I guess it's lucky that Dracula is knocking around then. This was a fun film all in all, more tongue in cheek humour than the last two but still crammed with action and adventure. The pace of the film is a little up and down but that's because it's almost like it has two films worth of content all rolled into one. It was refreshing to see how the Blade's actions are seen by the living and how they reported on it, in previous films he was just allowed to dice and slice with no consequences ever being discussed. The casting was not what I expected for a Blade film, I was happy watching Wesley Snipes rampage but I can't remember signing up to watch Ryan Reynolds and Jessica Biel kick undead butt. Why does Blade need sidekicks though? He didn't really need them in the other films or the comics, it's almost in insult that he's been given them for this film. By having sidekicks and by sharing screen time with them it belittles Blade and makes him look like he's not actually that essential… but isn't he the day walk, the scourge of the vampire world? Evidently not and humans can get in on the act too. Not just do they get in on the act but they also have no fear of Vampires or death and they seem to physically cope with the demands of hunting super strength blood suckers. Average human's didn't fair to well in the first two Blade films so what makes them suddenly able to stand up to the fight? Allowing the 'kids' to have as much screen time diminishes the need for Blade who has made himself into the Vampire hunter the world needs. As well as belittling Blade's involvement it also gives the film a pretty and poppy feel, almost like they are trying to removed the darkness of the Blade franchise to attract a younger audience - shame. Although not a side kick what was the point in putting Triple-H (Jarko Grimwood) (WWE wrestler) in the film? He wasn't imposing, he wasn't a threat, he didn't have great dialogue, he was just there for being there's sake. Dominic Purcell as Dracula didn't do it for me either, he didn't seem convincing as the alpha vampire with unmeasurable strength and power, he was more like the bad guy in an episode of "Hercules" or "Zena: Warrior Princess". When I've sat back and thought about It after the film he didn't actually serve any kind of threat to the world, at most he killed a few of the Nightstalkers and attempts to throw a baby of a building (despite talking about 'honour' in his finale with Blade) but other than that nothing too menacing. He could probably have been left to roam the city for ages before any major incidents occurred which would need a vampire fighting hit squad to try and kill him off. Out of the bad guys it was Parker Posey as Danica Talos who was the most credibility, well, least embarrassing anyway, she played the role as if she was copying Fairuza Balk in "The Craft".For fear of a massive rant I'm going to stop myself here and try to summarise the rest of the review. Not as good as the first two films. Not as dark as the first two films. Random pace and random casting. More amusement and humour than action and story. Family friendly Blade rather than cult classic for fans. Terrible way to end the franchise. Predictable in places. Good soundtrack. 6 out of 10
