Below you will find a temporary review for this film. The real (better, more complete) review will be online very soon.
'Blade II' is like 'Blade'. The story doesn't make much sense, but the
subject is handled in a way that is not totally familiar. In 'Blade' we had
Stephen Dorff as a cool vampire. In 'Blade II' we have a whole bunch of
them, joining Blade to fight a new enemy. One step further in evolution
after the vampire comes some kind of vampire-demon, not afraid of silver and
other anti-vampire stuff.
The action and visual effects have a little from 'The Matrix' and 'X-Men',
and it looks pretty good. If you like action movies and don't mind if the
story is a little messy, especially some twists in the end, you will enjoy
this film.
