I really wanted to like this (a fantastic hero hunting vampires in the big city; sounds like good fun with action thrown in), but it's almost unwatchable. I like it when the movie sucks you in with a plausible story, believable characters and at least a little respect for the viewer.
This movie fails almost entirely on those counts. Right from the opening scene, too many things made suspension of disbelief nearly impossible for me. Even in a comic hero movie your science should work; positing the existence of vampires in the first place is fine, but don't do a lot of stupid NON-vampire things unless a reason is given or it's obvious why it works this way instead of how it works in our world. The main villain has no presence or sense of menace whatsoever.
I was going to go on, but it's not worth it.
score 1/10
