Effects so bad even your kids will comment on them, leather so tight even the best of us can't ignore, yes that's right, I'm talking about the one and only Van Helsing!
WHY IS THIS FILM TRYING TO MAKE ME LIKE IT BY SHOUTING AT ME THE ENTIRE TIME? 'LOOK!! WE'VE GOT EVERY MONSTER IMAGINABLE AND HAVE GIVEN THEM ENTIRELY NEW CRAPPY CGI LOOKS!! ISN'T GRAND? YOU MUST LOVE ME, I AM COOL AS HELL!!!!'
please stop shouting......my head hurts.......and please stop trying so hard.....it's annoying....
A fun guilty pleasure. Nothing says awesome like a horror James Bond/Indiana Jones esque film with Dracula, Frankenstein's Monster, and werewolves that pays homage to the famous Universal monsters.
Good Casting Jackman and Beckinsdale, Good Costume design, Ok music, lame story, thin characters, cheap CGI, terrible movie
Good god, this movie is still dumb as hell. And waaaaay more of an influence on my own storytelling than I would have ever thought or admitted.
Battle Angel. It’s been nearly 15 years since I last saw this. I liked it then, and re-watching it again now, I find that I still like it. Just like “Aquaman,” it fully embraced its inherently cheesy aspects. Also, unlike films such as “The League of Extraordinary Gentleman,” and the recent “Mummy” remake with Tom Cruise, it’s the only good mish-mash of famous movie monsters that I can think of. The worst part about this is Richard Roxburgh’s hugely over-the-top performance as Count Dracula. I mean it’s to the point where even Nic Cage would it consider it overacting.
I wonder though… why is this still enjoyable, while a plethora of other dumb, CGI-fests from around that same time period…
Me parece una ideaca coger a Lobezno y hacerlo lider de los Dark Avengers pero este crossover tiene demasiados agujeros de guión y es aburridísimo
Sommer’s 160 Mio. Trash-Masterpiece is something I did not realized I missed.
It‘s great campy fun with over-the-top but well choreographed action, wonderful sets (that castle!!!) and some good old sexyness here and there.
The outdated CGI did not bother me at all. In some cases some smart lighting actually hid it pretty well and some of the digital backgrounds look like oldschool matte paintings.
In general, I feel like the tone was fitting for this kind of monster-mashup....unlike some other....darker universe....
