Daybreakers

[Kuya]

Just saw it. It was a pretty decent movie, and i loved the whole vampires dominate the world, seeing as how i always wondered why they never did that.

[fishstix]

I wanted to see it!

[6souls]

I want to see it, but it sounds like a continuation of the Blade movie timeline.

[Sylvrdragon]

Well... it isn't going to win any awards, but I suppose it had it's moments. Comparing it to Blade is very misleading to people who haven't seen it though. Blade was just a Batman ripoff. There are no high tech bladed throwing weapons or swords in this movie. It is a bit reminiscent of the Vampire Hierarchy from the Blade movies, but that's really where the similarities end. What I actually thought of was what I had heard about the "I Am Legend" book, kinda.

Well... it isn't going to win any awards, but I suppose it had it's moments.

This is exactly how I felt. It was an "okay" movie at best. It felt like a 90 minute movie. You know how with some movies (Avatar for me, as a recent example) start and before you know it are over, and it was 2.5+ hours? This movie just felt like it was dragging forever. There were entirely too many plot holes, and the vampires... well they didn't seem to know if they were supposed to be the mythological vampires or more... um.. scientific vampires. They tried to take both routes, like it was a plague or outbreak, yet they were invisible in mirrors, died from stakes through the heart and sunlight killed them. Just very strange. The overall plot seemed way too pointless.

Willam Dafoe was particularly miscast in that role of Elvis. He's a lot more of an intense actor, and this role simply didn't fit him at all. I went to the matinee, but I don't think I would ever watch this again, netflix or not, cable or not. See it once, then forget it existed. One of those type of movies.

I saw in the preview where they said, "we'll run out of human blood in a month! we've gotta do something" and thought to myself, "really? you couldn't have seen that coming a little farther away? Are vampires bad at math?"

Then I decided not to see it.

[Kuya]

The only real part that bothers with implausibility is the whole sun cure thing.

[Sythe]

I gotta say this was pretty bad. I thought it was gonna be this really serious flick but it was just really campy. Meh, kinda want my money back.

[Bebopaloo]

Kuya, you mean to tell me your are questioning the plausibility of something that is entirely make beleive?



QUE BARBARIDAD.

[BadKarma]

I enjoyed the movie.

I liked the acting, Willem Dafoe was great as usual, and the part at the beggining where the guy exploded made me burst out laughing <,<.

[fishstix]

The only real part that bothers with implausibility is the whole sun cure thing.

wow couldn't have spoiler'd that? >.>

[Kuya]

Well, it's really only a spoiler if you read too much into it. Since i didn't say what it was the cure for.

[Titanss]

it has this player in it

so it has to be good

[Kuya]

I don't get what's with the visceral dislike of the movie by some, it was a decent movie. I did feel they didn't go into the decay of society enough, they had some scenes, but i would have like to see more carnage going on in the streets.

[Bingbong]

The movie felt like it should've been like a mini-series or something.
All the plot lines they tried to squeeze into 2 hours, and none of them save "the cure" gets the sort of time it should've had.

Spoiler: show

The decay of society, the removal of the transformed bats, they hinted at the talk of political dissension with regard to human rights, the fake blood Hawke's partner creates, the daughter storyline, and of course the whole thing with his brother. To sum things up in one liners the way they did, it really didn't go into the things the way it should have.

Entertaining for a while, but not something I think will need to be seen again.

[Kuya]

Yea they really didn't expand much on anything and left an incomplete feeling for me at the end.

[Mathematics]

i guess im the only one that liked this movie the whole way through. ending was good, story was good, acting was pretty good.

the only problem i had was the "cure". i didnt like that.

[Ragnus]

I think one major source of dislike for the movie right from the start is that people are probably getting really really sick of vampire everything. I'll most likely still see the movie though just for the fact that vampires are the dominant race and not recluses.

It's the little things that many have noticed that pretty much add up to movie being terribad.

[gaira]

Spoiler: show

they didn't even act like real vampires or seem to have any vampiric "powers" until they were almost dead from starvation and turned into bats or whatever. weak.

though the premise was pretty good and movie was still enjoyable, just not amazing.
