This is the short review. The long review contains SPOILERS.

Blade is back, with martial-arts vampire-butt-kicking action!

No, not as good as the first one, but doggone excellent in the action department. I was a little disappointed at first, seemed to be all boom and whango and no plot, but after about 15 minutes, the plot started appearing...guess they just wanted to make sure they had our attention.

Enough blood and body parts to keep an otter happy, a few very amusing lines/scenes, excellent f/x and lots of explodo, worth seeing for that alone. For some reason, by the way, vampire flix are NOT oogies, I have no idea why.

And yes, Wesley Snipes is a SERIOUS honey. Not even eye candy, he's more eye caviar. I suspect that deep down, he can really act, I'd love to see him get a chance...but until then, it's explodo city for me, just keep on making those movies, Wes!

Inconsistencies R Us: They're not real specific in this about how much sunlight vampires can take; sometimes they just have to stay out of the direct beams, while other times even diffuse light across the room has them ducking for cover. Hm.

Reality police: don't get me started.
The vampires put on full body armor to go down in the tunnels in the daylight...but leave their HEADS UNCOVERED? And when the daylight (or a facsimile thereof) hits them, they explode, armor and all...so what was the point? Well, ok, they all looked extremely buff in the hi-tech armor, I guess that WAS the point...
