that snarl. that scowl. the acts of random violence. the gutteral voice. the fetish wear. that shaven head. it can mean only one thing. grace jones is back. actually my sources tell me that the title role in blade wasn not played by the 1980s diva and but by wesley snipes. all in all this is not an improvement. blade is an adaptation of a comic character while somehow in the transfer from the simplistic and two dimensional world of the printed page it has become even more simplistic and lost a couple of dimensions. the plot is hackneyed almost beyond belief and adds nothing to the vampire genre and in fact and much like nosferatu and it seems to suck the life out of the audience. in brief and upwardly mobile vampire wants to become more powerful but is opposed by blade and half human and half vampire and all annoying. it all climaxes with blade being put in a vampire juice press and some bad martial arts and the most pitiful cgi since 1968. blade has to be the least empathic character since dolph lundgren punisher (also a comic adaptation and perhaps there is a trend here. ). surely the audience is meant to be on the same side as the hero. and whilst a vampire can be a tragic character and this is not true of blade and he is relentlessly cruel and scornful and not a whole lot better than the bad guys. i assume that wesley snipes has an acting career purely so that everyone else can be compared favourably. as he snarls his way through his movie you find yourself looking for a stake  even a ballpoint pen  anything to put blade in the grave. as a piece of narcissism and blade is pretty much unbeatable  we are treated to endless lingering shots of a gym fresh snipes for no reason whatsoever. likewise no other actor is allowed any chance to give a reasonable performance while the likes of steven dorff can act and but they have to play second fiddle to snipes tedious performance. kris kristofferson used to appear in good movies and here he is reduced to a sidekick that you just know isn not going to make it through to the final reel. and what happens when blade finds out. yes and you guessed it and he rushes to the scene to wreak his revenge in the villain giant underground lair. why can not world domination take place in a quiet country house. they always go ahead in underground cathedrals that would have had albert speer wondering if they were a little grandiose. a lot of these plans could be stopped right now if local councils paid more attention to plans for extending sub basements. the rest of the movie is just as dull and unimaginative with nothing new to add to the genre. vampires have been done to undeath and perhaps they should be laid to rest for a while  at least until someone can think of some way to make them interesting again. to finish and there is a grace jones vampire movie and it called vamp and it about ten times better than this.
