Bram Stoker's Van Helsing

After the first fifteen minutes I couldn't take anymore.

The movie horribly drags like it's in slow motion; add to that not one well known actor appears in the film.

I've seen every film interpretation of Bram Stoker's Dracula ever produced and can honestly state this is the worst adaptation to date.

Don't waste your time unless you enjoy torturing yourself.

Oh boy, here we go again.

A very poorly made film of a classic story that does not really need to be retold.

Poor acting and poor cast of said bad acting leave your stomach churning and wanting to press the stop button on this film at almost every point in the movie.

Save yourself the headache and discontent. Pass this movie over twice if you have to.

There isn't much to be said about this movie. It is the worst version of the story and I cannot figure out why it needed to be done. It adds absolutely nothing new to the story.

If it wouldn't be a remake of an iconic story I'd be more forgiving, but this just feels like an insult. The acting is quite bad and the only piece of action in the end was done so amateurishly it was just laughable.

I've read the first four reviews about this movie and they're absolutely hilarious. I appreciate the warnings prior my attempts in watching this train wreck of a movie. Thanks in advance guys.

Well, while the 2021 movie "Bram Stoker's Van Helsing" from writer and director Steve Lawson wasn't as bad as I had believed and feared it to be, then it should be said that the movie does suffer from it being a story that has been told so many times before that it is starting to lose its appeal in a new presentation.

"Bram Stoker's Van Helsing" provided me with somewhat adequate entertainment. Sure, the storyline is one that is rather familiar to me already, but it should be said that the atmosphere of the movie and the acting in the movie actually helped make it watchable.

Now, this 2021 movie "Bram Stoker's Van Helsing" is by no means revolutionary, nor is it a movie that was particularly necessary, as the story of "Dracula" has been told many times before. But "Bram Stoker's Van Helsing" takes the story and presents it from Abraham Van Helsing's point of view, and thus effectively putting Dracula out of the equation, for better or worse.

"Bram Stoker's Van Helsing" suffers from its pacing. The storytelling is somewhat monotonous and tedious at times, which makes for a somewhat prolonged viewing experience. And that is the main reason why my rating of "Bram Stoker's Van Helsing" fell below average.

While watchable, "Bram Stoker's Van Helsing" is hardly an outstanding movie, nor is it a movie that you'll watch more than once. Now, it wasn't a bad or poor movie, but it just didn't have enough punch to turn it into a remarkable movie experience.

My rating of "Bram Stoker's Van Helsing" lands on a four out of ten stars.
