63Thankfully, Reynolds (bearded, looking a bit like Jason Lee) adds some scrappiness and humor to a series that might otherwise have collapsed under self-parody.
-
63I don't know if it was intentional, but Drake seems to come out of the same sandy hole in which our troops found the cowering Saddam Hussein.
-
60Should reasonably please fans of the genre before assuming its place in the horror section of your local video store.
-
60This Trinity may be the least of the three--sound familiar, Matrix faithful?--but it's the closest in style and attitude to a pulpy comic book, an art form that doesn't need to be lofty, perfect or even sensible to tickle a dork's fancy.
-
60Has the great sleek, dark look of its predecessors and, most important, it has Snipes.
-
60Won't linger in the memory long, but gives pretty good action eye-candy while it's going.
-
58Blunt-witted, visually pedestrian, and overly long, with too many scenes of Blade and his cohorts standing around in darkened corridors, waiting for their enemies to show up. The action, however, is as throat-grabbing as you want it to be.
-
50What redeems the film...is that for every nonstop explosion, there's a hilarious burst of Reynolds' nonstop patter.
-
But there's just enough comforting familiarity mixed with refreshing new characters to hold the casserole of a plot together.
-
50One of the prime laws of the multiplex states that any action or horror movie series will devolve into ritualized violence, self-mocking camp, and egregious silliness by part three. Blade: Trinity is right on schedule.
-
50Big and dumb and loud and entirely past its prime.
-
50The story is a comic-book tale at its most basic level.
-
50Swimming in computer-enhanced mayhem and a non-stop hip-hop-and-techno soundtrack, Blade: Trinity might as well come equipped with joysticks attached to the seats, so everyone can play along.
-
50Director Goyer, who wrote all three Blade films, deserves credit for sticking with the character, but aside from the effectively staged action sequences Trinity is cheap-looking and laughably inept.
-
50The only one who seems to be having much fun is Parker Posey, camping it up as one of the vampires.
-
42Has a surprising number of problems: dire scripting, sloppy plotting and coffee-jittery editing, for starters. But its biggest problem is that Blade himself takes a back seat to a host of new and mostly uninteresting characters.
-
40By and large, the jokes fall flat, and the entire film often seems as fatigued as its star.
-
40A choppy, forgetful, suspense-free romp that substitutes campy humor for chills.
-
38A mess. It lacks the sharp narrative line and crisp comic-book clarity of the earlier films, and descends too easily into shapeless fight scenes that are chopped into so many cuts that they lack all form or rhythm.
-
38Kris Kristofferson, as a scaled-down old gray mentor to Blade, still looks like the visual equivalent of your five worst college hangovers.
-
38Take away the film's attitude, and you're left with "Son of Van Helsing."
-
38Dull Blade just doesn't cut it.
-
30There's nothing beneath the flashy editing and self-consciously cool production design but a soulless adrenaline machine that's never scary and rarely engrossing.
-
30Offers neither horror nor style.
-
30The movie is loud, dark, bumpy and not even a little fun. You emerge into daylight bruised and battered, suffering a case of movie abuse.
-
25No, it's the movie itself -- an unimaginative, generic affair memorable only for its incessant and flagrant plugging of Apple computers and iPods -- that should put a stake through the franchise for good.
-
25Sucky vampire flick.
-
25Dracula, who, as played by Dominic Purcell, has all the dark charisma and burning threat of a baked potato.
-
20Of all the missteps made and absurdities offered, the most glaring is the casting of what appears to be a steroidal Eurotrash pimp as no less than Dracula.
-
20If ever there was a case for quitting while you're behind, this "Blade" is it -- ready to be buried in a vat of garlic.

"Blade: Trinity" is so terrible, its a comedy (thanks to Ryan Reynolds).
