It might (barely) have gotten one more star if it hadn’t been the third one in the Blade trilogy. As such it has some mighty good movies to live up to and that it doesn’t.
This time David S Goyer took to both write and direct the movie. I guess he should have stuck to script writing or something. The action scenes are not too bad. However, that’s all there is. Just a string of actions scenes barely strung together.
The worst offence of them all is Dracula. When I first learned that they brought in Dracula as the chief nemesis I thought that sounded cool. Wrong! Apart from a fairly cool l…

After watching all 3 of the Blade movies in a row, it gives a lot of perspective. The first was before all the Marvel boxoffice stuff took off, the second was having some Reaper stuff which was cool, but Trinity was the best in the series for sure. It needs better writing as Snipes has attested. We can tone down the Deadpool a bit and have more Wesley being a badass and not trail off into side projects. Whistler's family origins type things as well as Hannibal King's, but focusing more on Blade because he seriously can carry the whole film like he should have been doing since day 1.

When a horror movie has to resort to vampire dogs, you know they're completely out of ideas. That's the least stupid part of Blade Trinity.

Blade: Trinity completes the Blade trilogy in cinematic grandeur, and brings about Dracula, an inevitable source in almost every Vampire franchise ever conceived of.
It was refreshing to have the "Elder" ruling-class/vampire-nation-lord/shadow-council thing dropped, since they were in both Blade and Blade II, and in both movies they were completely killed off, and ignored the existence of each other. Instead we have a group of happy-go-lucky vamps, who have one way or another made a mark in the world. You never find out how they managed to buy a skyscraper and a museum's worth of ancient ar…

TRINITY is not a good movie, instead it is a solid "Blade" movie -- meaning, if you are not already a fan, don't bother. Snipes no longer plays Blade for humor, as he did in the first Blade

All 3 Blade movies are awesome in my opinion. This one is my favorite out of the series. It introduced at the time a different type and kind of vampire. This is movie is freakin' awesome.

"Blade" (Wesley Snipes) is now alone - surrounded by enemies bent on his destruction. Then, as luck would have it, he meets up with the "Nightstalkers", led by former vampire "Hannibal King" (Ryan Reynolds) and "Abigail" (Jessica Biel) who might just have developed a virus that could rid the world of vampires forever. To combat this threat, the vampires raise their king "Drake" (Dominic Purcell) and the battle lines are drawn in the ultimate fight for survival. Snipes is OK as a our leather-clad, mean, moody, hero but actually doesn't seem to feature so much - most of the action is driven by R…

<em>'Blade: Trinity'</em> makes for a weak finale to this trilogy. I actually wasn't overly bothered by it whilst watching, though with the end credits I was kinda left wondering what I had just seen - as in it is all quite forgettable. Wesley Snipes remains the star, albeit not as great as before.
The cast is the most fascinating aspect to this film. Jessica Biel, Dominic Purcell, Natasha Lyonne, Patton Oswalt, James Remar and even Triple H show up, and that's not even mentioning the obvious: Ryan Reynolds. A beta test of <em>'Deadpool'</em>, really. That style doesn't quite fit here.
