I am a fan of the old hollywood favorites like Frankenstein, Dracula, and the Wolfman and this is a new spin on all of these great figures. The only reason I didn't give this an excellent mark is that it is mostly CGI effects and it can get a little old, with that said the actors did great in their parts. Hugh Jackman is a hero or a villian in the different views of the public. Working like a shadow for the catholic church he hunts down and destroys monsters that are a threat to society. He is great in this role, sexy and dark but with a sense of humor as well. He is joined by actors that are no less fun to watch. This is not a thinking movie, it is pure entertainment and it is just fun fun fun!!!! The score of this film is one to add to your collection of great music as well.
Watching the combination of creatures featured in the movie, took me back to Saturday afternoon matinee watching my favorite monster. One of the positive things going for this movie is that it has all of the major Hollywood monsters. I enjoyed the sexual overtone between Gabriell and Anna. The only negative issue was that occasionally the movie just assumed that those of us watching knew all about the background and the relationship between the characters. My biggest wish would be for a "Van Helsing II" There are several monsters to be bested by our hero. He could always go to Thebes follow up on the work of the O'Connell s. Or over to Asia for a battle with fu Manchu If you do not know who these characters are it just proves my point for another movie. OH, there was very little of the gratuitous violence found in the horror films of today. By it, watch it, and share it. Remember,Transylvania folks have an unique way of looking at death. Let's go with round two.Read full review
Beckinsale and Jackman make a great monster slaying team. This movie 's version of count dracula is terrific. He's such a heartless fiend ! The movie looks great on dvd , especially beckinsale , who is smoking ! The only bad thing about the film is that the director chose to kill her off at the end.

There are movies that have pretty people in them all the time, but not many of them can slay vampires and werewolves. This is one of my all time favorite movies. Great action throughout and a good story line. Not your traditional gore and fine for a family movie night. If you're looking for a gore, this isn't it, but its a good movie with believeable acting.
Wonderful twist to vampire movies
