When the first Blade film came out, I wasn't
at all interested. I later caught a scene from the film as I passed in front
of a television. The scene was where the Blade film ran out of
funding and had some silly death scene [clay bubbles] for the end of the
film. Then came the sequel, Blade II. Looking at the trailers,
the film looked to have a much cooler feel to it. Still, I did not catch
the film in the theatres. Of my friends that saw it, they claimed it was
great as it was almost entirely entertaining action and nothing else; which
didn't sell me all that much. I later watched the sequel on DVD and found
that I heavily enjoyed it, from start to finish. I could not ask for a more
entertaining film. Now, I could only hope that Blade III: Trinity,
would continue this progression for me. WRONG!
Early Reports Say Blade: Trinity Sucks
The good people at Aintitcool ran a collection of reviews from various viewers;
NOT actual critics. All reports claim that the movie was either bad, or
close to it. Eesh, here are some snippets:
If you thought David Goyer had saved the best
for last, let me tell you brother - You were wrong. Dead. ****ing. Wrong.
Easily the worst of all three Blade films, this film borders on being Punisher level bad.
Can you tell I'm a little disappointed? It had its moments--most of which involved Blade--but I just can't recommend it.
For starters, the movie was okay. It wasn't terrible, but it wasn't great. I do, however, think that its worth seeing. There were a lot of things I liked about the movie. For starters, the comic aspect was a refreshing addition to the series. Ryan Reynolds was awesome, and had a lot of really funny scenes.
Ryan Reynolds has been getting a lot of positive marks for his role in this film. This is good for Reynolds, but draws more attention that maybe the film couldn't offer
anything else.
