I really liked both the movie and the book. They both made me cringe at some parts, but I thought it was amazingly written and the movie was well done.

There is an idea of a Patrick Bateman; some kind of abstraction. But there is no real me: only an entity, something illusory. And though I can hide my cold gaze, and you can shake my hand and feel flesh gripping yours and maybe you can even sense our lifestyles are probably comparable... I simply am not there.

"Van Helsing". Yep. It was hyped and the clips they showed before they released it were great. After the first viewing, I wanted to slap Stephen Sommers upside the head. He waffled script and character development for special effects. However, I ended up seeing it 53 times and I have 47 ticket stubs. Just a neat, overblown movie that takes you away and, sometimes, probably laugh in the wrong places. Just enjoy the heck out of it. :loveshowe

P.S. I would LOVE to have the werewolf that Van Helsing turns into. Big, furry and baaad.

I was so excited about Van Helsing when I first saw the previews but gotta admit............. I didn't like it. And I really wanted to. :(

IM...agreed.

I don't know if anyone really hated this movie, but I really enjoyed it..."The Whales of August".
