My initial reaction was that it would be horrendous but the more previews I see of it, it seems like it will be entertaining. It doesn't feel like they are trying to make some serious vampire movie like a lot of them have been lately.

The book was absolutely serious. I don't think it would have worked otherwise.

Well I didn't read it but it just seems it's not going to take itself too seriously like the twilight movies do. That is a better way of putting what I meant. I guess that could still be wrong though...

I wouldn't watch this if I got free tickets. You'd have to pay me and pay me well.

I think this movie looks like it could be just stupid enough to be funny. I'll wait for blu-ray of course, but I'm kinda interested to see it. It's a reeruned concept, but sometimes those make a funny movie.

the premise for this isn't 1/100th as dumb as Wanted (ancient weaver assassins?) (same director)...but the reviews are pretty terrible

Watched the first half-hour last night. It was a strange mix, seeming like it wanted to be a serious period piece while also including scary vampires. Not sure if it works. I have to watch the rest of it.

Well, I'm going to go see this in about half an hour, so I'll let you know later what I thought of it.

Had I not read the book, I would have enjoyed it to a certain degree. They made good use of the 3D and the action sequences were entertaining. But I did read the book, so it sucked. My recommendation? If you like Spartacus blood spray action and sposions, leave your brain at home and you might enjoy it at a cheap matinee. If you've read the book or plan on reading the book, don't bother. |

This movie must be selling tickets because its taking 9 different theatres at the AMC olathe.....way way more than any other movie. It looks beyond reeruned to me, but i think avengers and spiderman looks gayer than gay
