Summary: WHY???
Review: I loved the books and was all into it when I heard they were making Queen of the Damned into a movie but this movie just made me sad. I have a list of a hundred plus things that are off from the book. I know Interview has its faults but not near as many as this movie. Aaliyah did a great job playing Akasha but most of the rest of the cast leave something to be desired. No blonde Lestat or Marius,no Louis, no Daniel, and no Armand or anyone else that made the book any fun. If you make a movie based on a book try to keep some of the book in the movie. But that's just what I think don't let me keep you from seeing it but it's something I could only handle watching a few times before throwing things at my TV and yelling.

Summary: Aaliyah & the soundtrack
Review: Well Aaliyah actually turned out to be Akasha. At first I was very sceptical, but I saw her as Akasha when I watched the movie, so that worked (plus she was a beatiful girl:(. Well the actor that plays Lestat, (sorry I didn't care enough to remember his name) tries real hard, but he is no Tom Cruise lol. The story line was horrible, sure interview with the vampire wasnt as acurate as the book, but it worked. I was looking forward so much to see the movie after I read the book, but this was a horrible plot and poor acting.So One star is for Aaliyah
and the other star is for the music because soundtrack was excellent So 2 stars since everything else sucked

Summary: 50/50 read the books if you have the time
Review: it probly deserves 3 stars, and i really liek the movie since only 2 of them come from Rice's many books. But the movie is way way wrong, Marius my favorite has long blonde hair and is much younger than the old guy with short black hair in the movie, i actually didn't recognize him as marius, who could? also most of the other characters were unbefitting of the roll int he book. They could ahve stuck with brad pitt and the other guy rather than make a whole new look, though aliah did a very good job as the queen. The kign and queen werent very good either, they look like statues but they are not, and after riseing they are still paper white, somehow akasha got a "tan". The movie is good but the books are much better if you liked the movie you may have foudn a hobby.

Summary: Not Nearly That Bad
Review: Yes, I've read the book. Yes, I liked it better than the movie. But (gasp!) I liked the movie as well. It's not one of the all-time greats, but it was a fun way to pass a couple of hours, with great moody scenery, decent special effects for the vampires-in-motion, and yes, even good acting. Let me blaspheme here again by saying that Stuart Townsend makes a better Lestat than did Tom Cruise (but would it have been that much trouble to dye his hair blonde?), I loved Marius, and Aaliyah was respectable as Akasha. I'd like to have seen more screen time for the Ancients, but I understand why so many characters and scenes and backstory were cut out - because there's no way the complexity of the book could have been brought to the screen in its entirety, in only one brief film. It was necessary to condense. And it worked well enough.

Summary: ....Yeah, If You Read The Books...DON'T WATCH THIS!
Review: This movie sucked. They took two amazing books (The Vampire Lestat & Queen of the Damned) and slammed them together; hoping in some way to make a good movie...well, they failed! I know everyone was so hyped about this movie being Alyiah (sp) last film whem she died but the movie didn't do whatever start of a acting career justice. Hell, it was even like the Aksaha in the book! They storyline is all mashed together and ... MARIUS is NOT Lestat's sire and that is NOT how Lestat learned to play the violin. They should have taken the time and made two movies and cultivated the story. I do think Stuart Townsend made a wonderful Lestat and it's too bad he wasn't in Interview with a Vampire because it was Lestat's true age... but... trust me, rent this before you buy it. The only thing cool I found while watching a friend's DVD is that it has the music video's for a few of the songs.... PS - The soundtrack is AMAZING

Summary: Ive changed my mind..
Review: The first time i saw this movie my brother was watching it for a second time and he wanted me to watch it too, and i thought it sucked pretty bad. For starters, i didnt pay attention to any of the diolouge and after a while i got up and just left. But about a year later, just recently, i found this movie laying around and decided to give it another try. I really like it now. The whole theme of the movie was very good becuase you really feel for Lestat and all of the other forsaken who must hide in the shadows. The characters are all strange in thier own ways and you can just tell that all of them are holding something. The strange places at which this film was made also makes for that dark feeling that gets you in the mood, and the movie's odd soundtrack definately provided the final atmospheric touch to even everything out, with music ranging from heavy metal to that odd techno-goth such as in 'redeemer.' The only complaint i have about this movie is the annoying trailing digital effects they used on all the vampires whenever they moved quickly or flew anywhere. It drove me crazy. But thats a minor annoyance i guess. My favorite parts of the movie were the concert scenes, which you can watch in thier entireity if you want, the cool music videos, and the awesome ending with the people blurring everwhere.

Summary: Aaliyah LIVES!
Review: I love Aaliyah, I love Anne Rice. This was my favorite book of the Vampire series. Although the movie skips major points of the book I still loved it. If you are expecting to see the Anne Rice version, I think you will be disappointed. The book is so much better. I still loved the movie because I have the ability to detach. It could have been so much more. Read the book & swoon. Anyway, if you like rock, you like to remember what it was like to be on drugs, you secrectly wish to be a vampire rock star ~ See this. I have to say my friends that were on drugs at the movies hated it. I could understand it better because I could fill in the blanks being a true Anne Rice fanatic.

Summary: very good
Review: Ive rent this movie at blockbuster and it's very good. And Aaliyah looks hot but it's too bad she died.

Summary: Anne Rice fans stay away
Review: Wow. There has hardly been a novel so mangled into movie form. Instead of the deep and intricate plot and character development I expected after the transformation of "Interview with a vampire" into movie form, I was wholeheartedly disappointed in this flick. It manages to swipe the cash out of Anne Rice fan pockets without delivering anything akin to the book. Where is the sister of the queen? Why are the facts of the book so thoroughly mangled? It is as if the people who could not grasp the first movie decided to do a pop-culture cash-grab with this movie, cashing in on Rice's fiction without giving her book any influence in teh film. Stay away, it's utterly disappointing.
Rating:
Summary: really good
Review: This movie was very very good. However there are a few things i would like to say honestly of what i thought about the movie. I honestly thought that this movie was bad because alot people have been giving this movie one star. So on cable on cinemax ondemand i checked this movie out to see if my opinion was right. When I started watching it my opinion was wrong this movie is very good. Because the rock music is tight and the acting was terific. So my rating for this movie would be a 10 out of 10.
