“I think Van Helsing is one of my favourite for this...”

written by hurricane1112 on 31/07/2004

Good Points
Very good special effects, action, gorgeous Hugh Jackman, interesting plotline and twist at end, good costumes, David Wenham's oddball character Carl.

Bad Points
Kate Beckinsale's accent, annoying Brides of Dracula

General Comments
I think Van Helsing is one of my favourite for this year, and that it has been highly underrated! The action is amazing and you cannot take your eyes off the screen at any point. However, this wasn't a wholly action and fantasy movie, as the romantic side story unfolding between Kate Beckinsale's Anna Valerious and Hugh Jackman's Van Helsing was interesting too. Carl was a very different character to anything we have so far seen David Wenham play, and he made the transition from action hero in LOTR to comedic sidekick in Van Helsing very well.

Although the fantasy/sci-fi plot was thought of as ridiculous by many people, it was stupid of them to go and see a film which obviously had creatures like Frankenstein's monster, and werewolves in the first place. If you are an escapist like myself you will thoroughly enjoy this movie!
