It seems like Bloodrayne has just fizzled out. The games were good, but too seldom do games go to movies that turn out even half decent. This movie has once again demonstrated that games-to-movies just doesn't work most of the time. It seems like Bloodrayne has just fizzled out.

Both Sci Fi, both old, heck, same movie, right? Not. These 10's are obviously trolls with the futile agenda of making someone think it's worth spending money on. "The first great vampire masterpiece"? Words fail me. "sat riveted from start to wonderful finish"? Maybe this person had an exciting dream when they dozed off during Madsen's dead-pan. And what was with the stilted attempt at old-world dialect suddenly interrupted with phrases like "pee on"? Was I halucinating or did Loken slip into a fake British accent at the end? Unintentionally hillarious from start to finish. The "blood splatter effect guy" had a bigger budget than the writers.… Expand

Man, this movie is just horrible. All these high ratings are pretty suspicious, I wouldn't be surprised if someone were boosting up the score, because there is no way that so many people could enjoy such an utter waste of film.

The plot is awful, if you can even call it a plot and the acting is terrible too. The premises is just stupid and it focuses more on inappropriate aspects than an actual story. I understand why critics called this movie a FAILURE and if I had been weary of this awful movie I would have watched it, ugh! this movie's awful! This reinforces my point about movie-adaptions of games. You cannot adapt a game into a movie without it sucking and you cannot adapt a movie into a game without the game sucking. In my opinion, leave a video game a video game and leave a movie a movie. And to this movie...the reason why this movie is probably so bad is because there was no effort in making this movie I mean...how do you make a bad movie when you try? The director probably threw this train wreck together as a way to make quick cash well if you don't try then don't expect your movie or game to get money or good reviews. Try, and your product will get glory. Overall, Bloodrayne was a terrible movie that shouldn't be watched at all. My advice: Stay away from the movie! The games were decent (from critic reviews I've heard so, after this movie I don't plan to play the games, well I don't have an interest for them) but the point is don't watch it, I did and I regretted it. Bloodrayne is a forgettable movie that is best forgotten.… Expand

Saw 'Bloodrayne' and its two sequels out of curiosity to see if they were as bad as their terrible reputation. As well as seeing whether one of the worst directors of all time Uwe Boll was capable of making a good film. On top of that, likeSaw 'Bloodrayne' and its two sequels out of curiosity to see if they were as bad as their terrible reputation. As well as seeing whether one of the worst directors of all time Uwe Boll was capable of making a good film. On top of that, like Ben Kingsley a lot as an actor and he is reason enough to see anything he's involved in. Did not have my hopes up, because even looking at the advertising and trailers 'Bloodrayne' looked awful.

The terrible reputation and dubious advertising do not lie. 'Bloodrayne' to me and many others really is that bad, bad actually is an understatement. Have come to the conclusion that Boll is incapable of making a halfway decent film, have not seen everything of his but all that has been seen has been terrible and as bad as their reputation. As someone who is usually very generous rating and reviewing films, 'Bloodrayne' does stand out as one of the worst films seen recently and actually full stop. Everything is abysmally executed and there are no redeeming qualities at all, have said that about very few films seen recently.

'Bloodrayne' couldn't be more inept visually. Photography that is both chaotic and static, bacon-slicer-like editing, drab costumes that don't fit the setting, continuity errors galore (more than anybody can count), afterthought-like visual effects, lighting completely lacking in atmosphere, those can all be found. The music sounds cheap and is never dynamic with anything on screen, often working against it and like it belonged in another film entirely.

Writing is horrendously stilted and cheesy, enough to make one want to vomit and the unintentional camp later on becomes exhausting. The action has no momentum or excitement whatsoever, is chaotically edited, under-rehearsed choreographically and a lot of it is incomprehensible. It really takes ineptitude to a whole new level. As is the story, it never comes to life and is not easy to follow often. Boll's direction is typically non-existent and cold, comparing him to Ed Wood is rather insulting when although Wood's films were the complete opposite of fine heart one could see that he had his heart in the right place (something that has never been the case with Boll). The characters are walking cliches that are neither interesting or worth rooting for, instead bland and irritating.

You know something is wrong when the best performance comes from an angry-looking Michelle Rodriguez. Elsewhere there is an emotionless lead, Meat Loaf's uncomfortable cameo and Michael Madsen and Billy Zane going through the motions. Worst of it is Kingsley in his worst ever performance, taking hamminess and chewing-scenery-to-pieces to mind-boggling extremes.

Summarising, completely bloodless and appallingly awful. 1/10 Bethany Cox… Expand

And that movie was so bad. I saw it on The Movie Channel and I couldn't even get through 20 minutes of it! It was so bad and it was kinda sad that they took that because I really liked the games"

this movie is soo bad that it's $25 million budget, was no way spent on this film the money was most likely pocketed, fan films on youtube with $100 budget looks better than a film that had a budget of 25 million dollar. they so creatively bankrupt that the second film takes place in a western LMFAOOO! whoever hired Guinevere Turner to write this trash movie should also be let go of there job and never work at hollywood ever again this movie suprisgly didn't end Michelle Rodriguez career bcuz this movie is not only a franchise killer but also a career killer. also everything that Kristanna Loken has appeared in area all terrible, she's the lead of this movie but always have a deer in the headlights whenever she's on screen like she never acted before it soo amateur and soo trash that this movie had to be done all in one take. this movie has even surpassed catwoman (2003) level bad. and it crowning acheviement is winning every worst award in 2007 Michelle Rodriguez nominated with: not one, not two, but three worst awards: Most Annoying Fake Accent (Female) award, Worst Supporting Actress from 2007's Stinkers Bad Movie Awards and won Worst Supporting Actress for a second time from February 24, 2007 - Golden Raspberry Awards what a crowning achievement i hope ur proud and hang it up inside of a glass case in ur million dollar mansion for everybody too see how many terrible movies u been in over the years. ur only relevance now is bcuz of those awful fast and furious movie sequels until that run out of gas and whenever universal stop milking from that franchise corpse. Hollywood never seems to learn that not everything can be a live action movie adaption that's based on a video game, bcuz tey're still to this day trying to turn every game ip into a movie (that literally nobody asked for) until we no longer have any type of original ip from all formats and platforms of entertainment. that's no longer fresh, new and original, so hollywood can ruined that ip by turning it into what they want it to be just to make money and milk as much from it as they can.… Expand
