Review of BloodRayne

BloodRayne (2005)
3/10
Pathetic.
24 January 2006
This movie was bearable, but not much more than that. Anyone who chooses to blame Uwe Boll for the poor quality isn't wrong, but blaming him exclusively is. There were many others to blame.

The writer was terrible. The characters were stupid. The language they used was simply hilarious (I don't recall them using contractions, but if they did, it wasn't very often). Half the things that happened, like the fat vampire monk or the Rayne sex scene, made absolutely no sense.

The stunts and pretty much any choreography were absolutely terrible, so the movie fails in this way, too.

Boll screwed up in many ways, but I'm sure they're all already mentioned, so I won't bother.

The acting was horrendous. Well, I've seen worse, but not by much. Kristanna Loken should not be allowed to have any parts that involve moving her face or speaking because she's not good at it. Billy Zane was pretty cool, but I don't see why his character was included at all. Michael Madsen was terrible for the part he played. Michelle Rodriguez tried to do a British accent and failed.

Really, the only good thing about this movie was that there was enough action to keep me interested until they end. Only that warranted the 3/10 I gave it.

I couldn't figure out what the significance of the last scenes (after the climax) was supposed to be, and I imagine there was one, but I still can't think of anything several hours later.
