Title: Slicing through the competition
Review: From the superbly choreographed opening scene to the fight-packed finale, Blade is an action movie par excellence. Production design and cinematography are also excellent. The actors themselves are largely workmanlike in their performance, but this is balanced by the frenetic multiple style martial arts action. The extras on the DVD include three fairly lengthy documentaries/commentaries as well as support material. As to the DVD itself, the titles are a little hard to read, but the film-to-digital transfer shows few MPEG artifacts. The Dolby Digital soundtrack is crisp.
