Van Helsing

[Special_K19]

:thumbsup: As usual, a very cool movie. I really enjoyed, gave a new twist to an old story, although I wonder if the pursists of the genre would object. Kinda like if Superman teamed up with the X-Men. Koz, you might be the closest we have here to an expert, wondered what you'd think of it.

Parts of the dialogue were cheesy and some of the special effects were lacking and didn't do the movie justice, but overall I really liked it! :thumbsup:

I desperately want to see it..but we all know my head would explode in a theater...guess I'll have to wait for PPV or InDemand or DVD.

I'll belive, I've seen some review of it on TV and they where saying it was pritty bad.

[PirateNut]

I'll probably go see a matinee one of these afternoons.

The Chronicals of Riddick looks even better to me...less cheese. :)

I thought it seemed pretty weird. I would think its not a real bad movie and not a real good movie. Inbetween. James what did u think?

[Baseball Guru]

I havent had the chance to see it yet uj....

I may try to squeeze it in on Mon or Tues...

I'll definitely let ya know...

[Panzram]

This is one of the few movies this summer I'd like to see.

[Dark_Angel]

I swear, I was just coming here to post about that movie. :D

Anyway, I went to the theaters today to see it with my brother since he's in town. We both loved it. :thumbsup: I, personally, thought it was awesome and wouldn't mind going to see it again. I'll definitely buy it when it's released on DVD.

I love the old, classic horror films that these characters are from, like Dracula with Bela Lugosi. That's one of the reasons that I wanted to go see this movie. I'm glad that I did. I really enjoyed it. :)

What i think they should do is do it likes this, instead of making 1 movie with the hunt for all 3 ppl, dracula, frank, wolf they should do sepeerate movies for each character and spend more time on each

Forgot to critique this movie..
Went with Kat last Monday and I really liked this movie... I love movies like this...

The only problem I had was with the acting... Besides Jackman, the rest of the cast seemed almost like B-rated actors and actresses... They were just kinda cheesey:(

The plot, story and action was very good... It will definitely be in my DVD collection when it comes out.....

[Blue56]

i saw it and it was very good!!

[Sheafaithful]

I thought it was cool, had some good one-liners. Plus anything with Jackman is worth going to see--nice added bonus :luvkiss: The rest of the cast was pretty corny though, but I think it fit well into the movie.

I was watching NY1 yesterday and they were running down the nominees for the TONYS. It was weird seeing Jackman in Boy from Oz dancing, smiling with his maracas and shiny clothes after seeing him kick some butt in Van Helsing. He is so damn versatile. My favorite character by far is Wolverine. :)

Oh yeah. ;) He's a great actor and is so handsome. :drool:
