- Nova GB16 maart 2026Goated!!!!!!!!!!!
- Richard Thornton22 juli 2025Best opening action scene to any action movie. Whole movie is a banger through and through. Cool hero vs cool villain. Holds up.
- Abdul5 maart 2026I like blade
- DK12 mei 2025The best and the only true Vampire movie that's not cringe and lame, Wesley Snipes was great in this. Loved it as a kid, and everytime I come back to it to watch it again I always enjoy it. Also has one of the best opening scenes of any movie, and for many of us was the gateway to the rave scene that we grew up with in 2000's.
- Myk6813 februari 2026Classic
- Risk The Bard22 april 2025only blade can make woosh sound effects work as well as they do, I don't make the rules
- Q_Prof26 januari 2026There is a reason why this started all of the Marvel movies on a great run. Snipes at his prime and may still be to this day showing up in the latest Deadpool. Fight cheorgraphy is amazing and story has character. The music and fights just stand the test of time.
- ርልዪረ17 februari 2025Blade came out in 1998 at the time comic book movies were going down the drain with the Batman movies, Spawn, and other properties not doing well with critics and audiences. Many did not realize Blade was a comic-book with no Marvel logo and Stan Lee's name appearing briefly at the opening credits. I would say that the films biggest strength is Wesley Snipes as Blade, he manages to be calm and reserve for the most part with some scenes showing more emotion when the film demands it. The rest of the cast which include Kris Kristofferson as Whistler, Stephen Dorff as Frost, and N'Bushe Wright ad Karen all do fine in their roles. I will say if your someone who lets say grew up with this film and your re-watching it, don't be surprised if the film hasn't aged with grace. That said i kinda liked the late 1990s style which gave the film its own identity, the only issue it at times the movie feels like a music video due to its use of fast forwarding and some editing. Stephen Norrington doesn't do a bad job as the director and its a shame that his career was ruined with that League of Extraordinary Gentlemen film, but he could of eased up on the odd directing choices i mentioned. Also some of the CGI is pretty bad by modern standards (but for the late 1990s it was passable). So in all i do enjoy Blade and in spite of its problems, it is my favorite of the trilogy mostly due to the last third. Not that the first 2/3 were bad, but the last third had some plot twists i didn't expect and some fun action scenes along with a death of a main character (granted its undone by the next film but it was still a good scene). So i recommend you give Blade a watch.
- Juha Pohjonen25 januari 2026Music is great. Movie was great but maybe not anymore at 2026. I give 10 for the memories.
- Karateka-J24 januari 2026Best vampire movie ever. The scene in the dancing in the beginning.... Wesley Snipes is perfect as Blade. Especially he can act and he's a real martial artist👊🙂🇧🇪.
- bogometer22 mei 2025Wesley Snipes in his prime. If I could only watch one vampire movie this would be it. Worth five stars just for the bloodbath scene alone.
