Movie Reviews of Blade The Series - The Complete Series
Movie Review: A Good Start, for a good series
Summary: 5 Stars
Blade the series rocks, true kirk jones is no wesley snipes but he portrays blade pretty good. i see this series can go for about 5 -6 seasons at the most. it's pretty good. Watch It on spike.Movie Review: A rocky start
Summary: 4 Stars
When I first started watching the two hour pilot, a friend came over about an hour in so I stopped it (DVR) while he was over. I wasn't impressed with that first hour and very nearly didn't start it again. I'm glad I did, the second hour still wasn't great but it piqued my interest and had some twists I didn't expect.
It was enough to get me to watch the 2nd episode, and then the 3rd ... and by about the 4th or 5th episode this show suddenly became the one show I was most looking forward to every week.
This was more due to Jill Wagner than Kirk Jones' Blade, and not just because she's hot (which she is). She really stole the show.
Unfortunately the slow start killed it and it never recovered.
1 star off for the shaky first few episodes.
Movie Review: Not bad (if you're a fan)
Summary: 3 Stars
The guy who plays Blade (Kirk Jones) doesn't do too bad a job. He looks the part, but definitely isn't Wesley Snipes. Snipes had the presence that really made the overacting just right, but this guy doesn't quite hit the mark. Jill Wagner is as annoying as all hell, but she's obviously there as eye candy. You could make a drinking game out the number of times they find an excuse to show her in a state of undress...
Still, it's good to see that they didn't try to make it kiddie friendly and that's it definitely intended for an adult audience. If they ever decide to kick off a second season, I would hit that as well.
Movie Review: Great Series
Summary: 5 Stars
I love this series and I hope they make another season, if they would it would be totally awesome.Movie Review: The only thing this show needed was...
Summary: 4 Stars
another season WITHOUT "Sticky fingaz" as Blade!
Marcus Van Sciver did it for me with his Lex Luther-like villain portrayal. He was slick, smart, conniving and cool.
I didn't mind the girl, Krista being turned either and I found it interesting that she fell in love with Marcus, while trying to help Blade.
Chase made a great femme fatale and I was looking forward to seeing more of her. The series was cancelled to soon, as if Spike TV has so much more to show besides old CSI reruns and Ultimate Fighter episodes. *rolls eyes*
What this show didn't need was a "hero" who was a jerk. he was unnecessarily mean to people who were his friends. In the movies, Blade loved Whistler, his confidant and partner. That should have been shown in the relationship between Blade and Shen and it wasn't.
Also, Even Wesley Snipes knew when to pull back and show compassion and smile/joke a little. He wasn't ANGRY all the damn time. In the TV show, Blade was always mad!!!! Geez, lighten up a bit dude.
I think if they had had a better Blade, the TV series would still be running.
