Daybreakers

'sure it passed the time, didn't it?'

that is the comment that was said after the film finished so hopefully that will tell you what was thought it.

For me, having not got into the whole twilight saga, it was quite an interesting story line considering being a vampire was a central plot to the whole thing. But for me, the one character that kept you on the edge of your seat was Willem Dafoe-great one liners that kept you laughing the whole way through (even if they weren't meant to)-Steven Seagalesc some might say.

But with great considerations on what the vampire world would look like ten years on-it had interesting attention to detail, obvious parts were included such as no exposure to sunlight and teeth marks on the neck, but in this picture it included having a camera as a car mirror so the vampire can check themselves out, and also most vampires smoked with the whole immortality thing.

For me, it was an interesting mix of immortality (living forever, which everyone seems to want), yet when they have it, still hoping for a happy ever after-it just shows what immortality would be in this self-centered, damaged world.... not much being the answer-still looking for the answer to the main problems. (not lack of blood but self-centered ness)

As for the special effects, they went from incredible gore, to ridiculous bore and not really knowing at times if you were in a serious movie or a vampire spoof-all in all, it wasn't a great watch, but sure... it passed the time, didn't it!
