Summary: Drink & Be Merry, For Tomorrow You Die
Review: I have never read author Anne Rice's novel, on which this film is based, but I like the film. Strictly as a movie, it works well, and is entertaining. The vampire Lestat, (Tom Cruise) turns a depressed Frenchman, Louis (Brad Pitt), into a vampire. The 2 become Mentor and Prodigy and wreak havoc throuhout several years. Eventually, they take on a little girl, Claudia (Kirsten Dunst), and "adopt" her into their vampire family. The peformances are very good in the film. A very young Dunst holds her own with Pitt and Cruise and proves that she will have a long acting career. Directed by Neil Jordan, the movie has many great touches and spans the centuries well. The screenplay is written by author Rice herself, so I would imagine that the movie stays true to its source material, and Jordan never allows things to lag.The DVD has a good commentary track from Jordan. It is mixed with fimmaking insight and actual production information, both in eaqual amounts, and is easy to listen to after watching the film. There is a retrospective documentary that traces the book and film's histories. Lastly, (and totally a waste of disc space) is the introductory comments from Rice, Jordon, and Antonio Banderas. In fact, he has such a secondary role in the film, that he seems like an odd choice for this extra. That minor quibble aside, the DVD, is recommended.

Summary: great movie!
Review: i read the book and loved it. then i decided to see the movie. i love the movie as well, though i think the book is a little better :) What i like about Rice's vampire characters is that they have humanlike feelings and emotions, and are more than just cold, unemotional killing machines that vampires are sometimes depicted as. Overall, it is an interesting, mesmerizing tale that mostly stays true to the book. Cruise, Pitt, Dunst, and Banderas did a great job playing their characters, it was just the way i imagined them when i was reading the book! They also looked very realistic as vampires. The best done scene(in my opinion) was young Claudia's transformation into a vampire. You should definitely see this movie if you are a fan of vampires, or just movies in general.

Review: This movie was fantastic. I loved the way louis told the story and I loved Claudia. She was my very favorite. I have also read the book and I'm a bit disapionted by the how much was left out. LESTAT SHOULD HAVE WENT TO PARIS!!!
Anyway, dispite the things left out, it was a REALLY great movie. Brad Pitt was the perfect louis, Tom Cruise as Lestat, and Kirsten Dunst as Claudia. I highly recomend this movie to anyone. The pictures are beautiful, especially of new Orleans. FIVE STAR!!!

Summary: Tom Cruise is a Huge [failure]
Review: This movies good if you like vampires who talk alot. Personnaly I like vampires who are'nt crybabies. Dracula would'nt feel bad if he had to suck your blood but these guys do. They would cry for days! Whats scarey about that? If you want to see a good vampire movie go watch [another movie]. At least he does'nt ware a dumb blond wig. This has to be the boringest vampire movie ever and its hard to make boring vampire movies IMHO. Tom Cruise should stick to what he does best.

Summary: Beautiful
Review: I rented this movie not only because I was told it was a very good movie but because I read the book and liked it. I was really skeptical though considering I saw Queen of the Damned first and....well it hurt so bad I wanted to scream and all I could do was laugh at the end of it. Anyway back to this movie, It was wonderful. I couldn't take my eyes off it. I laughed, I screamed, and I cried. Claudia made me angry, Louis pissed me off and Lestat almost made me weep. The end hurt me though because Lestat took off with Danial. Why do they always have to have Lestat run away with somebody that he is not supposed to? why? Oh yeah and I didn't really like Antonio Bandaras as Armand. Armand doesn't look like that and I really don't think he was LATINO! I'm going to buy it as soon as I collect enough cans.

Summary: The greatest vampire movie of all time...
Review: This is one of the greatest vampire movies that I have ever seen. There are a number of vampire flicks out there (Bram Stoker's Dracula, Lost Boys, and Queen of the Damned, to mention a few). I may only be fourteen, and I may not have seen as many movies as some of you people out there, but I can say with confidence that this is the best movie of its genre. With an allstar cast including Tom Cruise, Brad Pitt, and a young Kirsten Dunst, it will blow you away. It begins with an interview talking with a person who claims to be a vampire. The whole of the story, however, is a recollection of the vampire played by Brad Pitt, which takes place about two or three hundred years ago. This is a movie for people who like horror, vampire, or sci-fi movies. It's also a good movie for anyone up for a good scare. If I could give this more that five stars, I would in a heartbeat. A great movie, but not for kids under 10.

Summary: No doubts left..............
Review: If there was any doubt that a horror movie could be great and not campy, Interview with the Vampire is it! Beautifly photographed, seductive in its tone and a visually stunning piece. Tom Cuise and Brad pit played there parts perfectly in there roles as the torchered Loiue(Pitt) and as the matter of fact slightly insane Lestat(Cruise). If Jack Nicholeson ever desides to hang up the phycho role, leave no doubt that Tom Cruise can easily fil his role as unbalanced and crazy, just chech out the scene when he is dancing with a corps and at the piano after his brush with death. Kurstin Duntz proved what a great actress she is and will continue to be and Antonio Bandares with his small role was mezmerizing! The ending with Tom and Christian Slater Was to cool not to love! All in all, A great flick!!
