So, I'll start by saying I hate Uwe Boll... He doesn't know the meaning of "respect" when regarding movie-lovers... He does this only thinking on profit, and really doesn't give a rat's behind if the movie is good or bad...Still, I think this one is quite entertaining... There's blood, guts and action... I never enjoyed the game, itself, so it's easy for me to see this one without comparing it to the videogame. I prefer to watch this one a thousand times, than only one Twilight... this is a vampire movie for adults, and not any crappy teen romantic flick. It's not outstanding, but it does the trick: entertains...
... View MoreShadowTek here...WOW does this movie get a ton of hate or what.. Yes it's low budget, Yes the story is silly.. but come on.. it's not THAT bad. It has the lovely young and naked Kristanna Loken in it, not to mention Michael Madsen, Matthew Davis, freaking Meat Loaf, Michael Paré, pre-titanic Billy Zane, the ever sexy Michelle Rodriguez and freaking even Ben Kingsley! I mean.. what more do you want in a movie?Have a sense of humor and enjoy it for what it is.. gees guys.. chill and enjoy.ShadowTek
... View MoreBoth Bloodrayne and Bloodrayne 2 games are highly stylish and visually attractive, have interesting plot and thrilling action. Bloodrayne seemed to be destined to become a highly praised blockbuster. But Uwe Boll stood on its way and failed to execute any of its good features properly into a movie. First of all I should mention the main character of the franchise. In the video games Bloodrayne is a sexy dampire in really good physical shape. She is witty, impudent, sharp-tongued. I don't say Kristanna Loken is a bad actress, but she reveals none of these features in the movie. Why didn't she train to be in good shape in the movie? She was so sexy and slim in Terminator 3, but here all we see is a fat belly jutting out of the "meant-to-be-sexy" Bloodraye red and black costume and a flat shapeless bottom. Of course the way she fights being like this looks very clumsily and awkward. As for the nature of her character, she is shy and modest, nothing similar to the red-haired devil which produces sharp remarks while cutting enemies in halves. On the whole acting in the movie is good, way better than in the 2nd and the 3rd parts. Udo Kier fits the role of Kagan really good, he seems to be one of the few good features of the movie. Michelle Rodriguez is a hostile and mean strong woman, no wonder, almost all character she plays are the same. Bloodrayne's companions portrayed by Michael Madsen and Mattew Davis look natural and interesting enough for the viewers to empathize with them. The plot is quite boring and the setting is very trite for a vampire movie (especially in comparison with the setting of the first Bloodrayne video-game). But at least the there is some plot here, it creates a complete story, in contrast with Bloodrayne 2 and 3. I really dislike the weapons used in the movie, all swords look as if they were borrowed from a poor puppet theatre. Kids' plastic swords look no less realistic sometimes.Anyway, today, when I have already seen Bloodrayne 2 and 3 I can say that the first part is not that awful as it seemed to be from the first sight, but as a movie about our beloved redhead vampire Bloodrayne it is an inexcusable fail.
... View MoreUwe Boll is regarded as being one of the worst film makers of all time. Having seen a few of his movies (Far Cry, Bloodrayne, Rampage, Final Storm) I can say that although he is a terrible director not all of his movies live up to the awful hype. One of the few movies of him that does though is Bloodrayne. Bloodrayne is sinfully dull, and any interest that could be put into the movie is squashed from it being painful to watch. The only way that you could ever actually see this movie and not fall asleep would be if you made a conscious effort not to fall asleep while watching it. The worst part about this movie is that Uwe Boll actually managed to tarnish the careers of otherwise respectable actors such as Ben Kingsley. Despite some criticisms I also like Michelle Rodriguez and thought she was wasted as well. The worst part about this movie is that it is fairly forgettable as well. So if you hope to watch it to find a unintentionally funny scene or to get any entertainment out of it then keep looking.
