   I can't believe all the nitpicking about this movie. I initially did not go to see this because of what I read. I thought it was a very interesting story....a new twist for a vampire story. It was very well done from start to finish.......quality acting, well known and interesting actors. I read one comment that Sam Neil's daughter added nothing. Wrong again, it added horror and pathos to the story. I enjoyed this movie more than "Sherlock Holmes". This held my interest where Sherlock started to bore me. I recommend this movie to anyone who is a horror fan.… Expand

   Takes a bit to get into but it was actually rather good for the most part. I enjoyed it. The cast was decent ,I expected better, and the action was good. Its one of those films where you either like it or you dont and I liked it.… Expand

   This is one of those cases where the users know more than the critics, but Metacritic doesn't weigh the numbers right. If you cull the people who don't like horror movies or are bored with vampire movies, you end up with people who see this movie for what it is: a very imaginative variation on an old model, with high production values and fine actors, and a number of political and philosophical issues. The plot is not without its imperfections, and at times it comes close to jumping off the plausibility track entirely. But as a conceit of how societies get propelled by basic instincts that aren't evaluated or controlled, and lead to unexpected difficulties and political nightmares, it is a movie that provokes thought while delivering on the imaginative potential that the vampire fantasy allows. Life vs. death as an option -- the basic vampire theme -- is often available to us in real life, for a while, anyway. Or a better life with ethical compromises, vs. a poorer one with no such comprises. Whole societies face those choices, and often choose the wrong option. Sometimes societies stumble upon a cure for their ills that fixes everything, almost by accident. Sadly, that is more often a fantasy. I give this movie an enthusiastic 7.… Expand

   "Daybreakers" portrays the rise and fall of democracy, but in a bloody dumb way.
