Wesley Snipes has probably given the performance of his life as the ultimate badass in Blade. He's always in control of things and of course he always has exceptional cool one-liners such as: "Some mother****ers always trying to ice skate uphill". No need to say, he kicks butt.

As an action-movie Blade works very well, if not superbly: the action is neatly done with a close attention to detail making it very entertaining, which is the whole point when watching a movie. As a vampire-movie the movie doesn't work at all, more or less. The whole plot doesn't seem very believable, so to speak hypothetically. The script is not particularly original and also filled with plot holes, but still it manages to tell a story about Blade the Daywalker in a fast and entertaining pace keeping you entertained. Though, there are other movies such as Interview with a Vampire which succeed in telling a fascinating story about vampires, which we are led to believe in, again speaking clearly hypothetically. Blade does not do this.

In overall an excellent and fulfilled action-movie, but if you're looking for an intellectual vampire-movie I wouldn't go with Blade.

Tony Scott has made a lot of great action-movies, such as Spy Game, Enemy of the State, Top Gun and not to mention True Romance as my favourtie Scott movie. Crimson Tide is no exception. A very suspenseful thriller, which delivers everything, a good action-thriller should deliver with excellent performances from Denzel Washington and Gene Hackman, memorable action-scenes and quotes. While the movie has to stand down to the classic Das Boot and Hunt for Red October, it is far superior to the more or less unimaginative U-571 still making Crimson Tide to a good submarine movie. When comparing with Scott's other movies, True Romance is still the only one to beat Crimson Tide while Spy Game hits the same rank

7,5 out of 10.

The first Lethal Weapon lay out the ground for the characters and it's also the most important thing in the movies namely the great "chemistry" between Danny Glover and Mel Gibson. When you had gotten to learn them in the first movie there was a lot to build on in the LW2 and they sure succeeded in doing this. It's is truly the best of them all: it's funnier; it has better action and better performances from the actors and especially from Joe Pesci. Still, the three others are also nice action-movies. The story is good, nothing great but good; it's more or less similar to the other movies.

In overall an excellent and superior sequel to Lethal Weapon, a job well done!
