That was an excellent one.

I like movies that are aware of what they are selling... without [any] greater aspirations than to make people laugh and that's it.

An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.

It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.

Wesley Snipes did not possess the same screen presence he did with the previous two films. It almost seemed as if he himself was not sure why he decided to make this Blade film, and didn't seem as enthusiastic as before. This movie was just one big mess. I mean, right in the beginning, a guy "set him up" by posing as a vampire so Blade would chase him and they could film him to show to the world he kills humans. Did this guy intend to sacrifice himself? How did they know where to place the cameramen for this purpose? How would they have had the faintest idea where the revealing action would take place? Nothing about this scene made any sense! It infuriated me!The entire film has no credibility whatsoever and everything happens purely for effect or because it would look great on screen. Some of the visual effects during the action sequences are indeed fantastic, but most of them are not logical. It is overdone, to say the least. Oh, and the store attendants at the Dracula store were real dickheads! They honestly deserved their fate. The dialogue was terrible, as was the music. And if Drake is so powerful, why was he running away from Blade instead of just overpowering or killing him? Surely he could easily do that, but then we wouldn't have had a story, would we. Hmmm, this suddenly sounds good...The film only gets a bit more serious well after the halfway mark, but by that time I couldn't give a damn anymore. Wow, there's a lot of CGI breaking glass in this movie!!! Ryan Reynolds' character was a real moron and even his perfect body couldn't save it for me. This film played more like a spoof than a sequel.

Blade is back for a third film in Blade Trinity and this time he's not alone as he's joined by the Nightstalkers. Alone and surrounded it seems everyone wants a piece of the day walker, the Vampires want to kill him and the living want to capture and imprison him for his apparent crimes against humanity. At the start of the film Blade is set up, he slays what he believes is a vampire only to find out it's a human in disguise, he's caught on camera and learns it's a set up when the video is played all over the media and a manhunt ensues. While getting a good old telling off from Whistler (Kristofferson) a trap is sprung and his HQ is stormed by human authorities. Whistler is killed (for real this time) but manages to detonate a self destruct command wiping out the command centre and taking all the computers and evidence down with him. Grief stricken Blade is surrounded and submits. Now in police custody it all looks bleak for the day walker. He's interrogated by the law and vampires pretending to be the law. The vampires plan to take him away and to his demise but before they even get out of the room a rescue mission is sprung by Hannibal Kane (Ryan Reynolds) and Abigail Whistler (Whistlers daughter, played by Jessica Biel). They escape and take Blade to their own HQ where he learns about other Vampire resistance groups/ cells. They advise Blade that the Vampire current plan is to resurrect the very first vampire, Dracula (Dominic Purcell) himself. The chase is on, kill Dracula or be killed and watch as the world dies. While all looks bleak there is also a glimmer of hope as the team have finally made a compound that can cure vampirism but it has to be injected into the alphas vampire, I guess it's lucky that Dracula is knocking around then. This was a fun film all in all, more tongue in cheek humour than the last two but still crammed with action and adventure. The pace of the film is a little up and down but that's because it's almost like it has two films worth of content all rolled into one. It was refreshing to see how the Blade's actions are seen by the living and how they reported on it, in previous films he was just allowed to dice and slice with no consequences ever being discussed. The casting was not what I expected for a Blade film, I was happy watching Wesley Snipes rampage but I can't remember signing up to watch Ryan Reynolds and Jessica Biel kick undead butt. Why does Blade need sidekicks though? He didn't really need them in the other films or the comics, it's almost in insult that he's been given them for this film. By having sidekicks and by sharing screen time with them it belittles Blade and makes him look like he's not actually that essential… but isn't he the day walk, the scourge of the vampire world? Evidently not and humans can get in on the act too. Not just do they get in on the act but they also have no fear of Vampires or death and they seem to physically cope with the demands of hunting super strength blood suckers. Average human's didn't fair to well in the first two Blade films so what makes them suddenly able to stand up to the fight? Allowing the 'kids' to have as much screen time diminishes the need for Blade who has made himself into the Vampire hunter the world needs. As well as belittling Blade's involvement it also gives the film a pretty and poppy feel, almost like they are trying to removed the darkness of the Blade franchise to attract a younger audience - shame. Although not a side kick what was the point in putting Triple-H (Jarko Grimwood) (WWE wrestler) in the film? He wasn't imposing, he wasn't a threat, he didn't have great dialogue, he was just there for being there's sake. Dominic Purcell as Dracula didn't do it for me either, he didn't seem convincing as the alpha vampire with unmeasurable strength and power, he was more like the bad guy in an episode of "Hercules" or "Zena: Warrior Princess". When I've sat back and thought about It after the film he didn't actually serve any kind of threat to the world, at most he killed a few of the Nightstalkers and attempts to throw a baby of a building (despite talking about 'honour' in his finale with Blade) but other than that nothing too menacing. He could probably have been left to roam the city for ages before any major incidents occurred which would need a vampire fighting hit squad to try and kill him off. Out of the bad guys it was Parker Posey as Danica Talos who was the most credibility, well, least embarrassing anyway, she played the role as if she was copying Fairuza Balk in "The Craft".For fear of a massive rant I'm going to stop myself here and try to summarise the rest of the review. Not as good as the first two films. Not as dark as the first two films. Random pace and random casting. More amusement and humour than action and story. Family friendly Blade rather than cult classic for fans. Terrible way to end the franchise. Predictable in places. Good soundtrack. 6 out of 10

Honestly I liked this movie. A lot. Was it better than the first two??... No it wasn't; however, it was still a good movie. I liked the new characters and actors. Let's be honest. Nothing will be as good as the first two blades were. The actor who played Dracula, I cannot remember his name at the moment, is one of my favorite actors. Yes I don't think it was right that Wesley Snipes had the extra actors in there because he can hold his own but it was nice to see new people. I remember going out in renting this movie on on DVD and I absolutely loved it when I saw it. I was only 12 when blade Trinity came out. It's still a good action movie, and has a lot of funny dialogue between the characters. The last fight scene between Dracula and Blade was very funny and had a lot of action in it. Overall I give this movie an 8 out of 10.

I used to hate Blade Trinity and whereas it grew a bit on me with time and I am no longer a hater, it still remains a mega disappointment.The movie is nicely filmed and its premise is interesting, as the near-extinct vampires go find their patriarch, Dracula, to help them fight Blade. Also liked the idea of Blade getting hunted by humans after he mistakenly killed one, having been set-up.The worst of the worst as to be the two new heroes. Hannibal King spends the whole movie cracking one-liners and it gets old very quickly, especially in a Blade movie where what you do not want to get is HUMOR. Blade is not a funny comic and shame on David Goyer for not getting that.Then you get Abigail Whistler. The fact that she would listen to her iPod while fighting vampires tells you how low-grade this movie has been turned into by David Goyer. It's already a FAIL to have a human beat up a vampire but to make it worst, it had to be a hot girl and she can take on many at the same time while listening to music. Absurd as hell, makes you want to throw something at your TV.These nightcrawlers' biggest achievement is to make vampires look extra-weak and to make Blade useless since they can dispatch vampires with such ease themselves. All in all, the movie itself becomes irrelevant after both vampires and Blade become obsolete.The bad guy himself looks more like a pimp or drug dealer than anything else and does not have the strong screen presence that Frost or Nomak had in the previous two movies. We actually barely see him until the end, except for a strange scene where he supposedly wants to see what Blade can do and for that purpose, runs away...?!? This all results in Wesley Snipes becoming a support cast in a Blade movie, which made many angry for good reason. Snipes gave life to an otherwise little known comic and he did not deserve such a bad movie and bad role to end the trilogy. Shame on Goyer and the studio for that.This being said, the final fight does work despite all the flaws leading to it, and this is what mostly saves the movie from total failure and absurdity. I also enjoy the new Danica Talos character, played successfully by Parker Posey. Most visuals are nice as is the camera work.This is somewhere between 3 and 4 out of 10 but at the moment of writing this review, I feel for the upside after seeing again the final fight. I do hope, though, that Blade gets another shot at the big screen at some point, this time with a director who has a clue and who will take the character seriously.
