The setting, production design, and gothic style of this film are all awesome. Some of the vampire scenes, however, get melodramatic and bring the film down into campy territory. It's interesting that Kirsten Dunst, as a creepy child vampire, gives possibly the best performance of the film. Kind of cool, but hard to take seriously. |

Amongst all the vampire flicks that scour and scourge our planet (especially with those dreadful "Twilight" flicks), Anne Rice's "Interview With the Vampire" is a stunning first-rate above-them-all thriller that tops even John Carpenter's wily characters. "Interviews" is a stunning, hypnotic tale of a young man who becomes a vampire against his will and hungers after guilt, while all the while being seduced into the lifestyle by two thirsty masters. A powerfully beautiful cast that includes Tom Cruise, Brad Pitt, Antonia Banderas, and Kirsten Dunst. A great directorial achievement for Neil Jordan and beautiful writing from the Queen of Scream: Anne Rice. |

"Interview With The Vampire" by Yojimbo |
|
A vampire from born in New Orleans in the 18th century tells the tale of his life to an incredulous reporter. Anne Rice's own adaptation of her novel is quite literary which tempers the melodrama to give it quite a theatrical feel, added to by a good supporting cast; Tom Cruise actually gives one of his more characterful performances and is clearly enjoying himself as the rakish Lestat. It's obviously mainly about the eye candy and gothic romanticism for the benefit of the ladies, but there is also some great period detail and interesting themes running through it; particularly the eternal child and links between voyeurism and violence. A VERY young Kirsten Dunst gives a mature performance as Louie's unwilling child/love although I felt Banderas' character was underused. It's brooding, at... |

Interview with the Vampire review |
|
Way back when there were the Twilight franchise the Hollywood A list hunks ruled the vampire scene. You have Christian Slater (the reporter Daniel Molloy), Brad Pitt (the gorgeous Louis de Pointe du Lac), Tom Cruise (the wise vampire) and Kirsten Dunst (Claudia the vampire daughter) as the talented main cast delivers. Antonio Banderas as Armand also shines. Cinematography was grandiose to accentuate the beautiful 18th century era, an elegant score with a wonderful screenplay based on the popular novel created by Anne Rice. The set pieces were majestic and the pace of the picture was not disappointing. Some memorable lines: Armand - "The world changes, we do not; therein lies the irony that finally kills us." Lestat - "Don't be afraid. I'm going to give you the choice I never had."Lou... |

Loved it!!!!! Cruise, Pitt and Dunst rock!!!! |

Interview with the vampire, is an exquisite, very stylish film, that at times is boring, and repellent. But the acting is so good, that you have to wonder why these people did not get Oscars for their work. The Story: A vampire who has lived for 200 years, tells Christian Slater his life story, first of how he became what he is, what he's done of what he is, and what he plans to do next. Tom Cruise plays the lead vampire, who turned Brad Pitt into a vampire. Brad Pitt plays the vampire who is telling the life story to Christian Slater. Kirsten Dunst (Jumangi, Small Soldiers) plays the young girl, who the both male vampires turns into a vampire. Therefore she is cursed and will stay a young girl the rest of her life, till someone kills her. The film itself is a fine one, and if you watch t... |
