Summary: Don't care who else is in it, I still think it's excellent!!
Review: I've been a fan of Aaliyah's (Peace be upon her) since 1994 when she released "Back n forth" and have bought ALL her albums on the day of release and most singles.
When I heard last she was coming in a movie (Romeo must die) I went absolutely crazy and couldn't wait for it to be released on DVD, when I found out the release date I pre-ordered it 5 months in advance!
After about 6 months I read in a magazine she would be taking the lead role in Anne Rice's movie (Queen of the damned)I went mad again, then tradegy struck! I'm still going to pre-order Queen of the damned when it gets a release date on DVD because there's no doubt it will be beyond fantastic!
Interview with the vampire was excellent and I'm sure this is going to be at the same level if not a little better. It'll be the first movie I've ever seen with a lead role played by a female vampire! I personally have great antcipation!
Aaliyah is excellent and anyone who doesn't think so need to check their heads out! Her music is more dark and deep then anyone else her age, maybe the only other person now is Alicia Keys but she's going to have to keep up her work to gain a position as high as Aaliyah's! Aaliyah (Peace be upon her) Jahangeer

Summary: I saw Queen of the Damed
Review: I saw Queen of the Damned yesterday at a special screening of it. overall the movie was really good, good story, and good actors. the thing that impressed me the most was the fact that jonathan davis did ALL the music in that movie (the lead singer of KoRn), and that made the movie great. good job at creating a movie from a book. but the book nerds wont like this one as much. you don't even have to see interview with the vampire to get this movie, or even read the books. good movie overall.

Summary: This movie will be worth the wait !
Review: This Anne Rice classic is brought to life by the late , talented and beautiful singer/actress Aaliyah. At this moment there is no available trailer but from the pictures posted from the set during filming.........i've already been convinced that this movie will be a hit. Director of " Queen of the Damned " , Michael Rhymer was amazed with Aaliyahs talent in this movie and I'm sure anyone with good movie taste will agree too!

Summary: Queen of the Damned
Review: It deserves respect because Aaliyah was a talented actress/musician that we unfortunately lost. Please have some respect when rating this movie...
Although that doesn't underestimate her talents. She is a great actress.

Summary: Queen of the Damned
Review: WOULD LIKE TO SEE A PREVIEW OF IT. HAVEN'T SEEN IT YET. I LOVE ANNE RICE AND HOPE SHE DIDN'T MESS THIS UP. THERE SHOULD HAVE BEEN "THE VAMPIRE LESTAT" OUT FIRST. YOU CAN'T GO FROM INTETVIEW WITH THE VAMPIRE TO QUEEN OF THE DAMNED. IT WON'T MAKE ANY SENSE.
WHO THOUGHT OF THIS ANYWAY. I THINK ANNE RICE SOLD OUT.

Summary: Interview vs Queen
Review: I hated Tom Cruise as Lestat. I thought he violated the heart of the character. He played Lestat as a fop which to some degree was the misperception of Louis. (Louis didn't know at the time that Toms family was pretty much wiped out and actually was minor nobility and Louis didn't understand until much later Lestats loneliness nor how Lestat had protected him. He also didn't know then that all of Lestats kills even then were justice and not indiscriminate)Tom Cruise came across as a vicious prankster. Although Interview was very sumptuous visually, Tom Cruises portrayal ruined the movie for me.
Townsons portrayal was much more accurate, dangerous,danger loving and sexual at the same time. The only thing really amiss in the characterization is that Lestat can be very introspective though never to the degree Louis is(well he came pretty close in M the Devil.) Also I thought the MTV video type action was quite in keeping with the tone of the book.
What was totally frustrating was the ending. The movie departed so much from the book and made such a mess of the characters that you would have a hard time relating to the remaining books if Queen the movie was your only reference.

Summary: ULTIMATE IN EVERY WAY
Review: This movie didnt really appeal 2 me when i first watched it, i only like the soundtrack, so i kept watchin it again 4 the songs, but the more i saw the more dramatic, entertaining and erotic it became. stuart is a spunk who oozez dark sexiness and so is the late aaliyah who showed just how great she would have was and just how far she could have gone. im totally in luv wit this film but if u arnt into dark eroticness then maybe it aint 4 u.

Summary: Not biased by bad reviews
Review: I personally think that 'Queen Of The Damned' is a really good, enjoyable film. I can understand why most people are giving it crap reviews, and I'm pretty sure it's because of the script. If anyone has ever read the actual book, they would be stunned to find out how little of it there is in the film, and how many mistakes there are.
There is nothing whatsoever to do with the twins or Mekare even, Pandora and Mael do not die in the book, Jesse never visits any vampire clubs or even flies with Lestat, there was nothing about a gypsie girl with the violin, and a lot of other stuff besides.
Obviously they changed some things like the concert being in Death Valley instead of an old-fashioned concert hall because of the use of flamethrowers, as it is said on the dvd, and also the age of David Talbot for film reasons too. (I think it was because of the fact David was made into a vampire so they wouldn't have to cast someone else but I'm not sure.) Also, I thought that Aliyah (spelling?) was a bad choice as Queen Akasha, basically because she couldn't work the corny lines.
However, all this doesn't make a bad film. Maybe even the re-invented script made the film altogether more fun, modern and glossy. I think the part of Jesse Reeves was perfectly cast in the form of the beautiful Marguerite Moreau. She is my favourite character in the film. And I'm sorry Stuart Townsend, but though you did a good job, no one beats Tom Cruise as Lestat.
In case of any confusion as to who the vampires at the end were, they were Pandora, Armand, Khayman and Mael.
The soundtrack also is one of the best movie soundtracks I've heard in a long time, so buy it, it's brilliant!

Summary: Please don't waste your time
Review: I'll keep this review short since most of the extreme dissapointment I felt towards this movie has already been expressed. Anne Rice is absolutely one of my favorite authors. Her books are seductive and simply wonderful, which - quite frankly - this movie is not. I felt that the film redition of The Queen of the Damned was completely miserable in comparison to the extraordinary book. If you are thinking about seeing or buying this movie, please do yourself a favor: DON'T. Read the book which is exceptionaly written and will leave you utterly satisfied, which is something this movie never could.
