Manhattan Undying

So the idea of this movie might seem good at first. You are a vampire and you want a painter to paint your picture. Why?Well probably because you can't see yourself in the mirror but this is a really thin idea and very under developed. You got people swearing and smoking all the time and people taking drugs. You've got detectives trying to find a vampire murder but we don't care much about anybody in this film because nobody's really interesting. And the nudity is of the uninterested kind ,short,sideways,mostly in the dark like the director had a strong desire not to excite anybody.Still can't understand why movies like this get financed.

No good casting, slow storyline, unfortunately a bit boring

Good story and cast. It's not like other movies it's completely different story of a Vampire and an artist.

Maybe I saw too many vampire movies ? I found this one as cliché as possible. Nightclubs full of lost souls, drugs and alcohol, sex and nihilism... The lead is supposed to be a tortured artist yet behaves more like a moody teenager. The art worl depiction is superficial.

Still, some good points : although unoriginal, the aesthetics are perfect. I also appreciate the ending, that is the choice of both leads with regards to immortality. It suits the theme of the movie.

I give five stars : I would have loved it were I still a teenager. The pacing, the tone, the theme remind me of an Anne Rice - like novel.

I've had this on my watch list for sometime and was surprised Not the violent type that is typical of vampire movies. Did not end like I thought it would and that's the only thing I found disappointing in the film. I would of made a different choice if I was that artist in that predicament.
