Movie Review: A Smart Take on an Age Old War
Summary: 5 Stars
A former friend of mine who is British turned me on to this as soon as it became available in a Region 1 version and I was hooked immediately. From the underlying sexual tension between our mysterious former army soldier (Idris Elba) who still walks the walk and Angela (Susannah Harker), the doctor with the heart as hard as her scalpel, and finding the reasons why everyone plays their part in this smart, updated (though slightly dated, now) techno-battle with the Vampiric race is a fascinating race through the streets and lives of modern-day London. It's all up in the air, too, isn't it? I mean, the Vamps are working on something that would mean peace with Humans forevermore. Would we - could we - allow that? I was desperately disappointed it was only a mini-series and didn't have a follow-up, but it goes out on a powerful enough note as it is to carry it. Just greedy enough to want more from this wonderful cast and some really superior writing with intricate, advanced ideas on an age-old... myth. Worth the investment. Had it in VHS and upgraded to DVD to keep it current. Movie Review: LOVED IT
Summary: 5 Stars
I wish this show was still in production. Well made, visually stunning and a enjoyable story lines. Movie Review: Mistery
Summary: 4 Stars
I like to watch Jack Davenport, so this performance of his is very good, his character gets you into the story, I loved his confidence. The theme is original very diferent from what I've seen about vampires, I really loved it because not everything is about blood and the mistery of the plot keeps you in suspense. Very good to spend some time watching it. I would love if there would had been more episodes.Movie Review: Handsome Man and Vampires
Summary: 4 Stars
I bought this because I adore Jack Davenport. The series is interestingly done and creative and the cast is very good. The story follows a mysterious squad of modern vampire hunters in London. We learn all of their reasons for joining the squad and it is fun to see who will win in this good vs evil battle. Movie Review: Don't sleep on this one!
Summary: 5 Stars
When I first saw this a few years back, I only caught three of the episodes and they weren't in order. I enjoyed the concept and episodes back then. Seeing all of them in their intended order was a treat. The concept and execution of this series was brilliant. It does away with the classical idea of vampires, and successfully makes it fresh and relevant.
This series was clever. Possibly too clever for its own good. Despite wanting to see more, I think anything over the six produced episodes would have ruined the series.
