What the title says. I'd give it a four or maybe a six out of ten. I got annoyed at the film. A *lot*. There was a lot of pointlessness to it; and they screwed up on many "traditional" vampire traits; like no reflection. Some of the fights scenes were waaaaay too long; and others they didn't spend enough time on. Several things they didn't really explain too well; and all in all, the movie felt somewhat shallow. Too many questions of "why" at the end, and "how the hell did they manage that when" etc. They also left it open for a sequal which was good, I suppose. It was an ok film; but most unoriginal; add to the fact it felt like the film was a total rip off. Oh, and was left waiting for the climax. Or thats how it felt to me at least. Too much hype. Will probably get it on DVD though.
