Interview With The Vampire : The Vampire Chronicles3 Out Of 5Interview With The Vampire : The Vampire Chronicles is an interesting take on one's usual vampire tale, especially since it focuses less on the characteristics of it and more on the revenge aspect of it. The chemistry among the characters is acted out and written brilliantly especially in its first two acts where diplomacy brews among them which grows into a behemoth rage of vengeance and spirals out its plot with an eccentric push. It is rich on technical aspects like costume design, art design, editing and sound department. The script is not as smart as the makers think but it surely is gripping enough to keep the audience engaged and invested in it. Addition to that, the makers uses their star power wisely and draws in most of the attention from it.Anne Rice; the writer, has done an amazing work on creating a high pitched tensed drama among its three dimensional characters where Neil Jordan; the director, is merely supporting her on its execution where he should have been more expressive and accurate on his vision. The performance is objective is utterly satisfied by the protagonist Brad Pitt and his supporting cast Tom Cruise, Kirsten Dunst and Antonio Banderas. Interview With The Vampire : The Vampire Chronicles is a thought-provoking but an over-stretched interview which may not be as nutrient but is surely juicy.

... View MoreI watched this film with no preconception of what this film will be about (except for the obvious) or how good it is and I still somehow felt quite disappointed. As expected, it was a predictable Hollywood popcorn flick. It has its big stars and its pretty effects and that's about it. Though it was interesting how the gay subtext was tackled, other than that the film's script is beyond mediocre. I mean Pitt's role is not really salvageable. That character is beyond insufferable. On the other hand, Kirsten Dunst and Tom Cruise, in substantial roles, did their best to impress.Dunst left me with mixed feelings. She was impressive when she was playing as a youngster version of her role but as her character 'age', I did not see a change that I believe the character should have.Meanwhile, Tom Cruise was more impressive in his role. I mean he have the showiest role after all. It has the right amount of pizazz and motherly touch that his character imbued but it was nothing special. Overall, the film was just painfully OK and everything about leaves you wanting for more as nothing really leaves a big impression. [2.5/5]
... View MoreWhy I say, seeing the background of the film? Because this movie that is of vampires, I do not really see it as a vampire movie, I see it as a Neil Jordan movie, bone, liberals against no liberals, I'll explain it in spoiler zone. That's why I like this movie. Some struggle for their individual freedom and others struggle not to be what they are. I do not know if many people will say what I'm talking about but it's what I see that shows this movie.The film, is an entertainment production with almost a great deal. Set in many centuries and is very well set. We believe the whole atmosphere.The actors are great. Kirsten Dunst is brutal, what a discovery, for me almost the best part of her career. Tom Cruise, who has already demonstrated how great he is, does it again.He has a very nice picture. Proper and well conditioned. The movie tells us.The address is normal. Entertains. Normal planes, nothing more. But it is well worn.It has a setting, wardrobe and makeup that is very good.What happens is that it does not become a mythical movie. Stay in entertainment.Spoiler:I love the show between the two, Tom Cruise and Brad Pitt, two ways of being so different, one looks at his individual freedom taken to the extreme and the other can not accept what is almost let himself die. And the confrontation decides with Kirsten Dunst, who a moment comments that why they did not ask if she would always want to be like that, because they decided for her. Can there be a more liberal thinking? Can anyone be opposed to it?
