Plantiana Yawn. Poorly Filmed Snooze Fest.
Linbeymusol Wonderful character development!
Teddie Blake The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.
Anoushka Slater While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.
Michael Ledo Vamps is a chick flick. It would most likely get a five star review at a Taylor Swift concert. Alicia Silverstone and Krysten Ritter play two vampires in the modern dating era. Alicia dates back to the 1840's and has trouble adjusting to modern gadgets, while Krysten is at home with them. Both of the women develop love interests. Alicia meets an old boyfriend (Richard Lewis) from the 1960's while Krysten falls for a man named Van Helsing (Dan Stevens) who has a father who hunts vampires.The Vamps are part of a support group who only drink animal blood. The jokes consist of mostly lame vampire humor such as women attempting to apply make-up without a mirror. There is one scene where Alicia is looking through pictures of old boyfriends. One of the pictures is Edgar Allen Poe. There were some scenes that worked and were funny. Unfortunately too much of the film had humor and scenes that didn't make it for a mature audience. Definitely only a rental. A sometimes fun film you might want to see once.Parental Guide: 1-f-bomb, implied sex, no nudity.
abc123@aol.com Play along with the jokes, this movie has heart - the nostalgia for the past is authentic and real, and the ending, amazingly has a much deeper meaning, with statements made by both main characters intended for the living, and for life - and love - you give your best to someone , and time moves on, youth is fleeting, and lacks meaning, the only real meaning is way beyond skin deep. . I doubt many picked out the far deeper message, it was truly a shock in a comedy, but is a great tribute to the best in these actors, who span generations, and ages, reflectively, to the movie's theme. . very rare indeed. highly recommended.
SnoopyStyle Goody Rutherford (Alicia Silverstone) got turned into a vampire in 1841 by the stem vampire Cisserus (Sigourney Weaver). Her roommate Stacy (Krysten Ritter) got turned by Cisserus in 1992. Goody teaches Stacy to drink from rodents and being a vampire while Stacy keeps her acting young. Goody has kept her real age a secret from Stacy. They are in a support group for not drinking human blood. Cisserus is back in town and killing. Homeland security agent Van Helsing (Wallace Shawn) is investigating the strange murders. Stacy falls for her classmate Joey Van Helsing (Dan Stevens). Goody runs into her former love from the 60s, Danny (Richard Lewis) who is visiting his terminally ill wife.It's funny that Amy Heckerling is trying to make fun of the modern world but she can't get rid of the feeling of a 90's movie here. She's not really nailing today's world exactly. It would be such an amazing satire if the movie has a more modern feel. That would keep the characters as fish out of water. Instead, the whole movie feels like out of a different time. Her style is still so 90's. Most of her jokes are about the computer. Most of the music sounds like another era. Nevertheless, she lands a few good jokes but it's not enough.
David_Brown It is not even debatable who the greatest Science Fiction/ Horror film actress of all time is and that is Ms. Weaver. But this film is the exception to that rule. Her performance as the evil Cisserus is without question the worst of her career. Spoilers ahead. The scene where she is killed by Goody (Alicia Silverstone), Stacy (Krysten Ryder) her b/f and dad Van Helsiing is beyond bad. There are many ways to kill a vampire, and a chainsaw is not one of them. The single worst performance belongs to Silverstone who sucks in everything she is in: " Batman and Robin" and " Blast From The Past" to give two examples. in fact, her performance as Batgirl is the single worst performance in a comic book film in history ( "Howard The Duck" and Jonas Hex" included) if there is any highlight it is Malcolm McDowell as a reformed and knitting Vlad Dracula. One more point: I am so sick of Hollywood acting like everything liberal ( ACLU , left-wing lawyers and the opposition to the Vietnam War) is wonderful, and everyone else is bad ( no wonder why Conservatives such as me) do not go to the movies like we used to. basically, don't waste your money on this film, wait for it to be on cable and record it and just watch McDowell's scenes. One star from me.
