The author wisely and justifiably recanted her negative opinion when she saw Cruise's excellent performance, which perceptively addresses the pain and chronic melancholy that plagues anyone cursed with immortal bloodlust. Brad Pitt and Kirsten Dunst are equally good at maintaining the dark and brooding tone of Rice's novel. And in this rare mainstream project for a major studio, director Neil Jordan compensates for a lumbering plot by honoring the literate, Romantic qualities of Rice's screenplay. Considered a disappointment while being embraced by Rice's loyal followers, the movie is too slow to be a satisfying thriller, but it is definitely one of the most lavish, intelligent horror films ever made. --Jeff Shannon Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Timeless Classic!This movie is a timeless classic vampire movie. The imagery throughout time is very well portayed. A must see for scenery and wardrobe alone! Kirsten Dunst is outstanding. Rating: - great servicegreat product and in a timely manner., it actually got here 2 days earlier than estimated time. Rating:  - Gothic dragI think I've tried 2 or 3 times to watch this movie, but failed. This time I lasted about 20 minutes before I gave up, fast-forwarded, skipped chunks, and left before the end. It is quite incredibly boring. There's an interesting atmosphere to start with. Gradually you realise that it's all going nowhere, very slowly. Yawn, snooze. I've read all the one-star reviews and they all, except the one who's being funny and has reversed his star grading, hit the nail square on the head. I haven't read the ...

Never one to be easily impressed by a film or won over by gore or special effects, my love of this particular film is rather deep. To start with Neil Jordan is a marvellous director, who has brought us such classics as The Company of Wolves, The Crying Game and The Butcher Boy. This man is a genius of vision and brings out the most honest performances from his cast. I don't think that we will ever see a better ... Read More Rating: - True Gothic Romance"Interview With A Vampire" makes "Bram Stoker's Dracula" look like a joke. This is how a vampire movie should be done. This film puts you into the mystical world of vampires, you feel like your living in it. The acting is fantastic all across the board. The sets and the costumes are beautiful as well. Even "Queen of the Damned" couldn't repeat the same type of magic of "Interview With A Vampire". This is a special film and has stood the test of time. |
