The film intends to take advantage of the resurgence of vampires set off by [Twilight], and make the same type of best-selling novel "Blood Man Darren Mountain" into a series of movies. However, with an investment of 40 million US dollars in this film, the North American box office in the first week was only 6.35 million, and 30 million was definitely capped. This is better. Want to recover the cost can only rely on DVD rental and sales, the sequel is probably out of play, trumpet [Golden Compass]! This film tells the story of the first three of the twelve books in the book. It describes the process of the hero’s identity change like Spiderman, and then he has to be like the iceman and the fireman, Wolverine and the saber-toothed tiger in [X-Men] A traditional bridge with former best friends (brothers) as enemies for life. It does sound nothing new, like a mixed downgrade reissue of all kinds of magical comics and movies. Fortunately, the overall atmosphere of the film is well done, and there is no obvious sense of disconnection between the vampire and the real world. But the advantages may only stop here, except for the wonderful performances of some actors.
John C. Riley, who plays the role of a vampire, is too happy because he looks so happy that he turns an acting school into a funny one, just like watching his [Never Stop], I don't know whether to cry or laugh. Most of the scenes in this film are supported by him. The acting is a funny vampire. I have never seen this before. In fact, he didn't take the initiative to make fun of the film, but he was too impressed to laugh when he looked at him. His opponent, Ray Stevenson, the "punisher" of the enemy camp, was a violent man who fought Riley several times and was naturally knocked out. It was really unconvincing, like a KONAMI fight. William Dafoe, who showed off his acting skills in [Antichrist] at the same time in North America, is basically a joke in this film, and his appearance is even more amazing than Riley. Salma Hayek, Riley's girlfriend who has the ability to predict and grows a beard when she gets excited. I don’t know if it’s okay to play tickets or appear in friendship, eh? Who do you have love for? Ken Watanabe, the head of the weird circus with a height of 2 meters and a deformed head. Most Western media commented that his performance was wonderful, but friends who have seen him [Tomorrow's Memory] know that Uncle Watanabe here is simply acting like a strange bird, playing with the children. Patrick Fugit, this kid has no future. From the [almost fame] debut, along the way, the main player is [The Wrist Slasher Paradise], all these years have been played in the same type of role, it is almost Become the otaku spokesperson, even if the whole body is painted with green paint and scales, it will not change the otaku character. In a few years, maybe MTV will give him the best homeboy award to encourage him. There are also two small characters, Jane Kolacski's broken arm reborn girl, and Orlando Jones with a leather spine at the waist. Cut scenes, not much comment. Our protagonist, the vampire assistant, is a newcomer, and he can clearly feel his youthfulness. From the point of view of the Orientals, he is not handsome, and has a bit of a mother. At first glance, he looks a bit like Emile Husky. In addition to acting. And his best friend and later antagonist has a lot to do with, Josh Hutcherson, the second brother of the child star in the shadow of Freddie Haymer. I've always been optimistic about him, but please don't grow and look like Scott Kane, especially his body shape.
In fact, the biggest surprise in the film’s performance is not John C. Riley, but Michael Cerveris, who plays the villain, who exists like Satan (sorry there is no Chinese translation). His expressions, words, and extremely delicate movements are like Marlon Bailan. The grace and evil as the godfather played by Duo, plus the powerful aura like a demon king, as if Heath Ledger’s existence in [The Dark Knight] is far beyond the depth that a "bad guy" should have, and even makes people Feel the breath of philosophy. Almost smashed John Markovich-another master who gave the character a wonderful sense of presence. I checked this person on the Internet. It seems that he is a Vigo Montanson-style actor. The film is extremely fat, but I can't find any photos (except for the stills) on the Internet that are slightly blessed. It's incredible!
The wonderful group play makes the film not look as gloomy as the sky in the film, but it is too naive for adults, and too adult for children-"Empire" is
about creativity, aiming at more than goal The fatal sweet and romantic [Twilight Saga] of the young girl’s most vulnerable part is infinitely high, although the sequel has the same ambitions-the Guardian
