Review of Interview with the Vampire (1994) by Robwinz — 11 Dec 2020

Interview with the Vampire is actually a very boring movie and the movie's even got a very forgettable story.

The movie's got some over the top acting from Lestat De Lioncourt (Tom Cruise) but Louis (Brad Pitt) is actually pretty good.

The dialogue which is given from each character throughout this movie is honestly quite weak, each piece of dialogue is received so horribly. Also, the movie's got some good humour scattered throughout only a few certain scenes, which actually works quite well but there's not enough of the humour.

The pacing which this movie's got is honestly dreadful, each main moment isn't built up so well and it ruins the emotions as well.

The movie's got some brilliant cinematography from Philippe Rousselot, he captures each graphic moment pretty well.

Finally, the movie's even got some very gory moments. Which are all actually really well done, despite the dreadful pacing towards these build ups.

The makeup artist Michelle Burk does a brilliant job on making the vampires come to life. They've got a very interestingly dark look to them, which I think adds to their character quite a bit.

Overall, Interview with the Vampire is actually a very boring movie. The movie's got some over the top acting, weak dialogue, not enough good humour, dreadful pacing, brilliant cinematography, very well done gory moments and a brilliant makeup artist.

I wouldn't recommend it, if you're wanting to watch a brilliant Horror/Romance movie, this isn't the one for you.
