Wesley Snipes understands how to move and pose in a comic book movie better than any actor in history
Patrick WillemsSep 3, 2021Opening with horny writhing youths coating their bodies in blood the MCU could never
Angela FerragutoNov 11, 2020BLADE goes insanely hard, aside from dated CG it still holds up pretty well. Such a fun, stylish and over-the-top movie with action sequences that go from badass to downright crazy in scope, it's so gloriously 90's!!! That opening club scene where blood rains from the…

does Blade get a single drop of blood on him in this movie
JoeDec 19, 2020It’s nice knowing there’ll never be a cooler superhero moment than Blade smoothly decapitating a vampire and catching his shades in mid-air while some thumping techno music starts playing. Also it’s snowing in the final scene so this is basically a Christmas movie.

I love how the cool vampires at the cool vampire party are watching Mortal Kombat 1995 on VHS
Justin LaLibertySep 29, 2021the first 15 minutes are perfect
ianthe moment when blade rips out a vampire's throat and then tosses it at another vampire is pure cinema: that's what you go to see movies for.

I absolutely loved this movie. Although watching the special effects more than twenty years after they were made was a bit more humorous than amazing, they were still way ahead of their time. Wesley Snipes is a legend, and his performance was nothing less. A must see.
Sabrina Bondi likedBladeBlade is an entertainingly macabre and excitingly staged action horror, with a propulsive energy... a masterclass of style and swag, dripping with blood and flair, filled with iconic badassery to the brim. It's a f***ing blast!
Victoria lovedBlade“some mfs are always trying to ice skate uphill” so much aura in this film 😭 fun opening that sets the tone for the rest of the movie! not a single boring minute and has lots of fun visuals (gory but with dated cgi that kinda just makes u smile a lil). vampires are freaky tho lol
- Kevin likedBlade
7/10 - Good film, not terrible but not perfect either. Wesley Snipes definitely makes the movie what it is. He brings the essence and character to Blade. Such a sick character nevertheless, everything about him is so badass and mean. An 18s film with WS slicing up vampires, YES.
Morgan likedBladeLMAOOO i love blade he’s so cutie patootie and sexy, karen is also adorbs i enjoyed this movie for the most part, i think it could stand to be even MORE campy i thought the villain was lame and there was too much back and forth with nothing happening but it was good 💀
Andrew Gooder lovedBladeI love how stylish and fun this vampire action film was. The visuals, the CGI, the action sequences, everything was very fun to watch and incredibly well paced in my opinion. Enough to keep my attention thru the entire movie. A great adaptation from the comics. 9.5/10
- Mob Spacey likedBlade
Fun! Lotta stuff felt ripped right off a comic page, and Blade is perfectly cast to fit the classic hero archetype. There’s some mildly anti-capitalist theming going on here too which I will always love, plus the soundtrack bangs. Soooooo campy tho lmfaao
Matt likedBladeOne of the most stylish action movies ever. Snipes was born to play Blade. It’s ultra violent and action packed with a decent plot and script. It’s excessive in every way and has a great soundtrack. It’s extreme violent vampire horror/action movie
Draven Ramos lovedBladeOne of the greatest films ever made; the tone, the soundtrack, the cast, the special effects. I’ve seen this movie more times than I’d love to admit but it’s perfect. Marvel struck gold with this and it will always be the best of the trilogy🙌🏽

Metacritic
Big as it is, Blade' is meticulous and subtle, not just in its camera technique but in the way it works its themes and creates a mood.
Mick LaSalle
San Francisco Chronicle
Blade is an entertainingly macabre and excitingly staged action horror, with a propulsive energy and a prototype “bullet time” sequence one year before the Wachowskis made it famous in The Matrix.
