    An indulgent retelling of a beloved novel lands with more style than quality. Seemingly dramatic and rushed this sometimes funny love story toes the line between love and subservience.

Seemingly dramatic and rushed this sometimes funny love story toes the line between love and subservience. And seeks to answer, what happens when a black man becomes powerful but is forced to imitate the state he'd been designated preceding this power. It's medium of an interracial homosexual relationship creates the perfect opportunity to explore what the power dynamics would entail especially in such an era. The story should shorten its pace and flesh out its relationship and then might be in line of being a fantastic debut.… Expand

    It's a very beautiful and different adaptation, I'm in love with this, it's different from the book, but it's incredible on his own way, the core of the characters and story are still there despite the changes, i love it

    From plantation owner, Louis became a brothel pimp. His journey sure was an unsuccessful one, exactly like this adaptation of Anne Rice's great vampire horror books. Lesson (not) learned is : Do not mess with the original concept.

    This garbage has nothing to do with the source material. Don't get attached to this show it won't last more than one season.

    Fantastic so far! Great performances from Jacob Anderson and Sam Reid, and they have amazing chemistry together as well. Also loved the directing and production design.

    Interview with the Vampire is a series that draws on the themes and characters of the books but adapts the story to fit the following books. It adapts the setting to the early twentieth century, and the characters shine because of these changes.

It adapts the setting to the early twentieth century, and the characters shine because of these changes. It allows for an excellent examination of the relationship shared between Louis and Lestat, which is, for the first time in adaptation, presented as entirely homosexual.

    Anne would have loved the way these changes allowed her characters to shine through what was to her a traumatic time and present an inspiring story of the challenges of nihilism and those who may take advantage of the feelings of significant loss.

    The cast is magnificent. The set design and crew have clearly poured their heart into making this series a dream for the senses, which is entirely fitting for Rice's highly sensual vampires.    … Expand

    The show is so awful, they destroyed the essence of what made the original novels great.

    Ótima adaptação. Anne Rice ficaria orgulhosa com a forma que decidiram trabalhar o material original.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Trilha sonora perfeita e a interpretação dos atores impecável, estão entregando simplesmente tudo, além de todo o cuidado da produção em cada mínimo detalhe da série. O roteiro traz algo novo, diferente do livro mas ainda conseguimos ver de onde vem a base de tudo, é como uma releitura, a mesma história contada de uma forma diferente e atualizada.… Expand

    Bad screenwriting ruins the interesting premise in an overall tame adaptation.

    A wonderfully reimagined version of one of my favorite movies and books. The acting, casting, story and production value all shine. I especially like Jacob Anderson as a new version of Louis. He was great in GoT but this new role really lets him to show his masterfull craft as an actor. The script is intriguing as the writers found a new way to tell the story we all know and love.

It becomes a kind of a sequel and deepens and enriches the original characters. I really love that angle, as it keeps the spirit of the story intact but also allows us to be interested in the story - a "what if" version of it. Very cooll! Highly recommend it after first season and hoping that the future ones will rise my final score to a perfect 10!… Expand

    Neck-biting has its limits, plot-wise, and seven episodes may be too many, but be assured there's plenty here to sink your teeth into.

    This new Interview is far more faithful to Rice than was the movie – and nowhere near as much fun.

    Interview with the Vampire is a toothsome, moreish drama that proves there’s life in the undead yet.
