Blade and Blade II are some of the best vampire movies ever made. Blade: Trinity isn't quite as good, and I think that can be chocked up to pulling Blade to the background of his own movie, but I don't think it's as awful as some make it out to be.

Wesley Snipes, of course, makes this movie what it is. IMO, it's worth watching for that alone. [spoiler]The loss of Whistler is perhaps the first mistake this movie makes. They try to make up for it by bringing in Whistler's surprise daughter, but it just doesn't work.[/spoiler]

Abby (Jessica Biel) tries too hard to fill the role. She's basically a watered down Blade. There are many scenes throughout this movie where she's mirroring Blade, almost like they're setting it up for her to take over the franchise, but her character just doesn't have the same presence Wesley Snipes brings to Blade. Purposeful or not, that makes the movie feel disappointing. I don't think that would've been the case if she'd been brought in as her own character.

Hannibal King (Ryan Reynolds) kicks ass. I've always loved his particular brand of deadpan humor. At this point he's been typecast to hell, but he brings something different to the movie and that at least makes it entertaining.

And I loved seeing all the flared jeans and old apple tech. It's hard to believe this movie is almost 20 years old.
