Review of Blood: The Last Vampire (2000) by Nathan T — 07 Jul 2012

The animation is pretty impressive and the action is well put together. Now that the good's out of the way I can moan. The story is incredibly insubstantial, there's no sense of the stakes and it just seems like a framework for the action scenes.

Also, no time is given to develop the characters in anyway, leading me to see the main character, Saya, not as a tortured soul driven for redemption (I think that's the tone the movie went for) but as bitter and unlikable.

If you're after some decently animated action with little substance then I guess this is for you. I enjoyed it, but felt that they could of done a lot more with it.
