Harrison Ford and Sean Connery are a really fun duo on screen. I love the story and it’s definitely the more funnier of the bunch but some parts felt a bit dry but it doesn’t stop it from being good by any means.
Despite its controversies it’s a solid action adventure film with plenty of amazing iconic action sequences and set designs. Who doesn’t love that opening sequence?
First movie of 2026 at the movies 🍿
A well done job to Nia DaCosta as her eye for the camera is beautiful. There is some really, really gorgeous shots throughout the film and I love seeing that weaved into cinema. The camera work was sharp and clean.
I really love where Alex Garland took the direction of the story as it keeps it fresh and exciting.
Jack O'Connell As Jimmy is just a nasty villain and he delivered. Great…
BLADE is one of those films that really pushed the envelope as cinema headed into the new millennium and I think really paved the way for other action/horror films. Hell, it saved MARVEL from going bankrupt.
I really love some of the camera work and action sequences/shots in this. That opening scene with the rave and blood bath and introduction to Blade is so good. The story itself is a slow build with a great climax. Some of the CGI hasn’t aged well but for the time it was made it was great.
Definitely one of my favorite vampire films.
