Wesley Snipes does a great job of portraying a half vampire, based on what I assume half vampire are like. Great action. It is also the most accurate depiction of the complex inner working of vampire society I have ever seen, I'm assuming.

It's a very fun, dark, gloomy, and edgy film. Films like this are what is missing in modern comic book films, especially in the MCU. "Blade" shines in many factors: a great character, a good plot, a great villain, great twists and turns, and overall a sense of having fun.

I remember seeing this at the Galaxy theater in Hollywood California when I lived in LA. My friends and I saw it a total of nine times. What else can I really say? Steve Norrington did a great job and if you don’t know who he is prior to this, he’s also the writer and director of a film called Death Machine.I would never trust a person who said that this isn’t the first unofficial MCU film. The three act structure is on point, the effects are outstanding even to this day. Wesley Snipes was born to play blade. His ability to, inject, pardon the pun, gravitas with humor, while pulling off great action and martial arts swagger Makes no other actor suitable for the part.If you’ve been living under a rock somewhere and have not seen this film for whatever reason you just have to.

Die Menschheit ist unterwandert: seit Jahrtausenden leben Vampire unter den Menschen, sie haben sich angepasst und sich mit ihrer Futterquelle arrangiert. Viele von ihnen töten nicht mehr, sondern stillen ihren Blutdurst in speziell für Vampire errichteten Blutbanken. Die Nachtschattengewächse haben alle wichtigen Schlüsselposten infiltriert, und trotzdem existiert auch bei dieser Rasse eine Zweiklassen-Gesellschaft: während die als Vampire geborenen Reinblüter weiterhin im Verborgenen agieren wollen, streben die Vampire zweiter Klasse, die per Biss umgewandelten, angeführt vom machthungrigen Deacon Frost die Weltherrschaft an, indem sie die Blutgottheit La Magra wiedererwecken. Ihr gefährlichster Widersacher ist Blade: im Moment kurz vor seiner Geburt wurde seine Mutter von einem Vampir gebissen, und so hat der „Daywalker“ alle Stärken der Vampire, aber keine ihrer Schwächen. Ausnahme hiervon: der unstillbare Blutdurst..„Blade“ läutete 1998 eine völlig neue Ära ein und brachte eine ordentliche Anzahl neuartiger Vampirfilme hervor. Vorbei waren die etwas romantisch verklärten Zeiten, in denen ein Adliger im Anzug und mit rot gefüttertem, schwarzem Umhang mit hohem Kragen vornehmlich junge, attraktive Jungfrauen erst wuschig machte, dann biss und ihnen das Blut aussaugte. Auch der Vampirjäger ist kein kauziger Peter Cushing-Klon im Dreiteiler mit Taschenuhr in der Westentasche mehr, der hektisch mit einem Kreuz herumfuchtelt. Nach „Blade“ waren die Vampire grausam, brutal, gerne auch sadistisch veranlagt und in ihrer realen Erscheinungsform meist nicht mehr ganz so ansehnlich. Mal abgesehen von Edward Cullen natürlich, aber welcher Mann will den schon sehen.. Mir spontan einfallende Ausnahmen vor „Blade“, die sich nicht in irgendeiner Form an Bram Stokers „Dracula“ anlehnten, waren vielleicht „The Lost Boys“ oder „John Carpenters Vampire“, der kongenial Vampirfilm mit Western verschmolz.„Blade“ war ein Lichtblick in der Karriere von Stephen Norrington, der vorher nur als Special Effects Artist in Erscheinung getreten war und nach „Blade“ nur noch einen nennenswerten Film in Szene setzte, und zwar den oft geschmähten „Die Liga der außergewöhnlichen Gentlemen“, den ich persönlich gar nicht mal sooo schlecht fand.Wesley Snipes spielt in „Blade“ die Rolle seines Lebens: kaum jemand anders hätte den Daywalker so auf die Leinwand bringen können; nach Wesley Snipes Auftritt in "Blade" musste das Wort cool neu definiert werden. Dabei waren Snipes seine profunden Kenntnisse in verschiedenen Kampfsportarten natürlich außerordentlich dienlich, und in den Actionszenen kann Snipes zeigen, was er draufhat. Seine gesamte Präsenz, zusammen mit dem genialen Outfit und seiner regelrecht spürbaren Gefährlichkeit, drückt dem ganzen Film seinen Stempel auf. Kongenial assistiert wird Snipes dabei von Kris Kristofferson und Stephen Dorff.„Blade“ ist als mittlerweile 23-jähriger perfekt gealtert, man merkt dem Streifen sein Alter allenfalls an den etwas antiquiert wirkenden Special Effects bei der Verwandlung der getöteten Vampire und im Finale etwas an.Ansonsten ist „Blade“ nach wie vor ein Klassiker des modernen Vampirfilms, der auch nach der x-ten Sichtung immer noch spannend ist und mit seinen Actionszenen fesselt. Dazu hat der Film noch eine der ikonischsten Anfangsszenen des Kinos überhaupt mit einem der besten Techno-Tracks ever: der gecoverten Version von New Orders Confusion.Das Bild ist hervorragend gelungen, erstaunlich was aus dem Quellmaterial herausgeholt wurde. Hie und da scheint etwas nachgeschärft worden zu sein, und besonders bei Blades erstem Auftritt im Schlachthof wirkt das arg steril und kühl, aber trotzdem: das Bild ist definitiv 4k-würdig und besser als das des jüngst gesehenen, ähnlich alten „Léon – Der Profi“. Bildfehler lassen sich kaum ausmachen. Schärfe, Tiefenschärfe, Kontrast, Schwarzwert und Plastizität: alles sehr gut. Für Referenznoten reicht es nicht ganz, für die Höchstwertung aber locker.Das des Englischen mächtige Publikum kann einen Atmos-Track genießen, der mit allen anderssprachigen Tracks den Boden aufwischt. Leider liegt also Deutsch nur in Dolby Digital vor, und das ganze klingt im Vergleich nicht nur deutlich weniger umhüllend, sondern sogar muffig, als hingen dicke Tücher vor den Lautsprechern. Bass gibt es ordentlich, aber selbst der ist irgendwie schwammiger als im Englischen. Schade.Extras: nicht angesehen, ich vergebe den Mittelwert.Mein persönliches Fazit: „Blade“ hat mir seinerzeit schon im Kino enorm gut gefallen. Auf DVD und Blu-ray war es immer wieder ein Genuss, den Film anzusehen. Auf UHD liegt nun, vom Sound abgesehen (außer, man sieht ihn im Original), die beste Möglichkeit vor, sich den Film anzusehen. „Blade“ gehört auf UHD in jede gute Filmsammlung.

It's crazy to think that Blade is now just shy of twenty five years old. I must have watched the VHS (and DVD) to death back in the day and it is nice to re-visit it after a long time, now in stunning 4k!For those that have never seen Blade. The story is fairly simple. Blade is a half man, half vampire hunting a bad guy Vampire called Frost. Frost has a serious grudge against humans. We're nothing more than food to him and basically wants to enslave the human race, but his elders want to keep the peace. He goes behind their back to find some ritual that'll bring back an old vampire god, it's up to Blade to stop him.Wesley Snipes as Blade is (in my opinion) the peak of his career. He was fantastic in Demolition Man but just looks incredible in this role. He may be a bit mute but he does a lot of great acting with his eyes and is in peak physical condition. This of course means his fight scenes are very well done. He comes across as threatening and looks extremely cool in the process. Stephen Dorff as Deacon Frost is a great bad guy. He has good chemistry with the cast and played his role really well. My favourite of the bunch is Kris Kristofferson as Whistler, Blade's partner and father figure. He doesn't hold back physically and verbally, providing the film with many memorable moments.The film looks really nice in 4k. I noticed a big jump from my bluray copy within seconds of the film starting. There's a good amount of detail throughout the film and plenty of colour, which is rare in the movie but looks great when it shows up. This is usually in moments with bright shop signs, the crimson blood of feasting vampires etc. Talking of the overall dark look of the film. The depth in the contrast is really nice. It doesn't appear to have any crushed blacks etc. I thought it looked great throughout.I bought Blade for a tenner and felt like I underpaid a little. I've spent more on 4k discs that looked much worse. If you're a fan of the movie and want to see one of Snipes' best roles in the best quality possible, this is definitely worth picking up.

Its not high art, it hasn't aged particularly well, and it stars Wesley Snipes who ranks just above Steven Seagal on the "I actually own movies starring this guy" embarrassment-meter. Nevertheless I'm a fan of comic book films, vampires, and R-rated action films and Blade delivers the goods and is a lot more fun than it deserves to be.Wesley Snipes is Blade; a human-vampire hybrid that hunts his blood thirsty cousins with the aide of his hillbilly pseudo-father Whistler (Kris Kristofferson). Blade is feared by the vampire population but a particularly bloodthirsty vampire named Deacon Frost (Stephen Dorff) has an ambitious plan to destroy Blade and enslave the human race.If you go into Blade expecting Interview with the Vampire you're going to be disappointed. Even though Blade deals with vampirism at heart it's an action-kung fu picture and it isn't apologetic about it at all. The film is filled with non-stop action; there's plenty of hand to hand combat, sword play, and shootouts plus more than enough vampire gore to keep things interesting. Wesley Snipes has never been known for his superior acting ability but he's near perfect in a role that requires him to treat his B-movie starring role with deadly seriousness. The plot is very silly, Stephen Dorff is a villainous ham, and quite a bit of the CGI has aged extremely poorly but in spite of its many flaws Blade is a memorable time waster.Blade simply looks and sounds great on Blu-ray. This release is a drastic improvement over the nearly 14 year old standard definition DVD. Black levels are much improved and I saw no signs of DNR (Digital Noise Reduction). There is a nice layer of film grain present that is only distracting on several CGI shots where it looks out of place. Color accuracy is good and the abundant amounts of blood really pop against the somewhat monochromatic color scheme.The DTS-HD MA soundtrack is even more impressive and is an even greater improvement over the DVD. The Blu-ray sports a 6.1 channel DTS-HD MA mix versus the standard Dolby Digital 5.1 track and the added surround channel isn't wasted. Surround activity is constant but not gimmicky and the LFE channel is impressive but not out of control. Gunfire has more `oomph' to it than the DVD and dialogue is more distinguishable during the film's more frantic moments. The signature acoustic moment in Blade has always been the opening Bloodrave sequence featuring the Pump Panel Recon Mix of New Order's Confusion. That sequence alone was demo worthy in the early days of DVD and on Blu-ray it continues to give me goosebumps.Unfortunately Warner Brothers has not included any new supplemental materials for Blade. Instead the same Special Features package created for the 1998 DVD release is recycled here and it feels anything but special. The audio commentary is still worth a listen and the "The Origins of Blade" featurette is an interesting watch mainly because of how far comic book film adaptions have come since Blade was originally released. Otherwise most of the extras are forgettable (try watching the alternate ending... yikes). I would have loved to have seen a documentary with new interviews with the cast and crew but Blade continues to be treated like the `red headed stepchild' of successful comic book adaptions.Blade isn't a perfect film by any stretch of the imagination but its juvenile strengths far outweigh its dramatic weaknesses. If taken too seriously Blade can be easily picked apart but if you're just looking for a fun vampire action flick then you shouldn't be disappointed. The video and audio are both fantastic and are noticeable improvements over the old DVD. The supplement package is disappointingly just a DVD carryover and doesn't contain any new material which is a shame. With that said, is still an easy Blu-ray to recommend so go ahead and sink your teeth in.
