Interview with the Vampire

Rating:
Summary: Beautifully done, but wooden acting
Review: This film looks gorgeous --great locations, sets and costumes-- but I wanted to giggle whenever Cruise & Pitt tried to be dramatic (Antonio Banderas was OK.) Kirsten Dunst was great, though -- near the end, my husband asked how old the actress was (I don't think he believed she was a little girl in real life.) See it for her, and the scenery.

Summary: Best vampire movie ever made
Review: As an Anne Rice fan, I thought this movie was very well done, even though they did change certain things from the book version and left some things out. I thought all of the actors did an excellent job. Antonio was quite unlike the Armand in the book, but I still thought he did a great job of portraying Armand's dark, manipulative, and seductive side. Tom Cruise was terrific at portraying the cocky, yet charismatic, Lestat, and Brad and Kirsten were excellent as Louis and Claudia. The scenery was fantastic and really made me feel like I was seeing New Orleans as it was back in those days. The costumes were all beautiful and the make-up job on the vampires was great. I love Rice's vampires because they are completely different than any others we have known, such as Dracula and Nosferatu. I love them for their "human-ness" and the way that they are really not all that different from us. For as Anne Rice says, the movie isn't really about vampires. It's really about us. I love the part at the beginning when Louis is in the bar exchanging words with another man, and the camera moves upward to the top of the stairs. We see Lestat's left hand resting on the railing, as he quietly watches the goings-on below. We immediately know what he is thinking. Then, moments later, when Louis is walking with the prostitute, we see Lestat suddenly appear there watching them as they pass on by. That was great! My only real disappointment was at the end when Lestat ends up with Daniel (Christian Slater) in his car. I'm sorry they didn't stick to the book's ending, instead of drastically changing it to something totally different. I also thought Louis' time with Armand would have been interesting to watch. I really love the soundtrack, with its dark, yet beautiful melodies. Libera Me is just haunting. Whenever I drive to San Francisco, I make sure to play it as I drive over the bridge! This is one of my most favorite films. What can I say except, "I want some more!"

Summary: WOW! Let me catch my breath...
Review: ...after holding it for a little over two hours. I watched this DVD on my computer with headphones, all by myself while my family slept. I got chills up and down my back and could almost feel their breath on my neck. I would think an hour had past and it had only been 10 minutes. Not because the movie drug out, but because I couldn't believe they could fit so much action into 10 minutes. A vampire movie with a story. I haven't seen a vampire movie since I was a young child at the drive-in. This was the most interesting I think I've ever seen. Louis (Brad Pitt) was magnificient. The vampire with compassion for his victom's. Tom Cruise plays Lestat very well, the more wicked vampire who makes Louis. Kirsten Dunst does a wonderful job as Claudia the child vampire who loves Louis and wants desperately to grow up. Antonio Banderas is Armand the vampire with the haunting eyes. And Malloy (Christian Slater) is the reporter that interviews Louis. Does he get more of a story than he bargained for... watch this thrilling vampire story and find out...you'll get chilled to the bone.

Summary: Drink from me and live forever
Review: i loved this movie! the actors really brought the characters from anne rice's book to life in a big way. i fell in love with lestat. it was not hard to do. i also felt compassion for louie, he had a tourtered soul about taking the life of a human. this movie really protrays vampires as humans. their not the cold blooded creatures that everyone makes them out to be. they have a soul to. just like humans they feel anger, love, betryal, and they can cry. they just drink blood that's all.

Summary: A REAL INSPIRATION
Review: On a Normal basis, i love the book version of a movie best than the movie itself. I have not read the book from anne rice yet, but i intend to do. I really loved this movie, its characters seemes very "human" to me, all the passion in them as well as all the problems they had where really moving, the character i liked the most was Lestat of course, but i have heard that the Book lestat is even better, i certinly want to see that. Great Costumes and above all a really worked out enviroment for the movie. Banderas was not what i have expected but he was not bad either. i really ended hating Claudia (the character) but that only shows how good played it was. In the end i really wanted to jump out, open the window and wait for them to come for me. You really dont want to miss it and the DVD version rules! (i have seen better but its much better than the VHS version.

Summary: Wonderful!
Review: I saw Interview With the Vampire five days ago, and I still can't get it out of my mind. Tom Cruise, Antonio Banderas, Kirsten Dunst, and especially Brad Pitt give spellbounding portrayels of vampires cursed with eternal youth. This movie is both thrilling and haunting, leaving the viewer's mind swirling with emotions. I fell in love with Brad Pitt's character, Louie.

Summary: FUTILE MOVIE
Review: thismovie is so boring, the script so ridiculous and weak, that it is a shame to the vampire's legends all around the world. THe characters are bad, the actors are obvioulsy sleeping.

Summary: The most amazing legacy ever
Review: Interview with the vampire is by far one of the most amazing movies that I have ever seen. Brad Pitt's portrayal of Louis de Pointe du Lac was genious. Brad Pitt is an amazing actor. Tom Cruise's Lestat de Lioncourt was equaly astounding. If you have a love of vampires or even a love of horror movies this one will instantly become one of your favorites.
