Bloodrunners

This movie was definitely not my cup of tea. In fact, I only managed to endure 50 minutes of the ordeal before I turned it off out of complete and utter boredom.

There simply was nothing interesting to the storyline, nor the characters, and I quickly lost interest in the movie, but still, I opted to give it a chance and managed to endure 50 minutes. But the movie was just lacking on all fronts, and there was nothing entertaining here for me.

Initially, when I saw that it was Ice T that was on the cast list, I was ready to skip on the movie. Yeah, I can't claim to be much of a fan of him neither in movies nor music.

But still, it was a vampire movie, so I decided to watch it. But turned out that the vampire aspect was a mere backdrop to the movie.

I am rating "Bloodrunners" three out of ten stars, solely because it did have some adequate production value. But for terms of entertainment, then this movie failed to provide any for me.

In a popular speakeasy, Jack Malone, a dirty cop, haunted by nightmares of war, finds a new location to shake down. But there's a presence within the walls of the club, run by Chesterfield, played by Ice-T. When Malone comes to collect his "luxury tax" he and his partner incite a small war against a den of vampires.

The movie is amazing, the style is sweet and the costume design is on point- I loved it all! The originality is what really keeps this movie entertaining. Running blood, a much-craved liquid via the underground, by vamps, is a pretty wild idea, making Bloodrunners and exciting surprise and electrifying!

Other than watching a vampire get staked in the shoulder, but later spotted with it in the center of his chest, I found nothing wrong with the movie. It's classy, well put together and the special effects are vigorous and enjoyable.

Take a look at Bloodrunners, releasing later in 2017.

This movie really isn't very good. At all. Acting is terrible, dialogue really bad. I LIKE low-budget, cheesy vampire flicks, and this was just. Bad. All around. Hey it other people liked it, more power to them, but I almost gave up watching it a couple times. I don't get why the rating is so high, I've watched 4 star flicks I've enjoyed much, much more.

Oh poor Ice T, how the mighty have fallen. The overall story had some merit & the setting of vampires "running" blood out of a small town, that finally drives them out (sort of) was intriguing enough to warrant a watch. But I was wrong. The dialog = atrocious. Acting = worse. Action scenes were beyond silly. Attention to details (see goofs) was awful. Ice T was still a presence - but why was he in this?

Right of the bat, i could not tell if this was prohibition 2020 or the 1920s. Getting mixed signal about that direction there. You also get to meet Ice T with a big fat diamond earring which i guess men back then wear. The dialogue from the first officer yapping away sounds 20th century. The editing where the singer performs one song had multiple annoying dissolves. And then we are back to the past when the waitress talks with 1920s accent. Confused... could not watch it. Oh don't forget the vampire who did the matrix move in the bed scene. Now if this movie is told and shot and edited.. in the classic way, i bet there is a descent movie in there somewhere. I have to fail this one. Next project please
