Blade II (2002)
Entertaining movie with some obvious holes.
I am not one who really likes action movies but for a change, Blade II did the trick for me. Wesley Snipes is very good as the Blade character and pulls it off well. Some of the concepts were good, like the bloodpack and dna splicing to create reapers, however the bloodpack fails in many regards. Their internal squabbling with Blade is one storyline thumb down; as well two of the bloodpack earlier on in the movie have a big fight scene with Blade and they are super hero like. However, for the rest of the movie, they don't display any of those super hero like talents. They along with the rest of the bloodpack, simply act very unspecial like and are used like extras waiting their turn to be killed.
Overall it is a good but somewhat lacking movie 7/10.
The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring (2001)
Good adaptation
I was really looking forward to the Lord of the rings. It turned out to be a good adaptation of the original story. The scenery was simply gorgeous and the casting was also aces. The computer animated creatures left alot to be desired though. I for one think computer beings should be banned, until it is more believable. The only reason The fellowship of the ring gets an 8 and not higher, is that the story although good, isn't great.
Overall 8/10.
