Two Came Back (1997)
I thought it was a good, intense movie with good acting.
Two Came Back is about teenagers who set off to deliver a 60-foot ship to its buyer and get caught in a storm.
This movie is based on a true story (I know 'cos I've read it), and the plot progresses very well. A few of the characters make personality changes subtle and believable, as the mood tensed up.
I didn't think too much of the camera-work though. Sometimes it looked more like a documentary than a movie, with choppy scenes and erratic moves.
I saw it because of Jonathan Brandis, but the movie's really more about Melissa Joan Hart's character. Good movie, and it's got a 7/10 from me.
Blade (1998)
Beautifully made with brilliant cast and setting
Blade is a fantastic movie with a new, modern look at vampires. This is probably the only movie that will have you rooting for Stephen Dorff's evil character over Wesley Snipes's Blade. The acting is brilliant, save for a few corny lines from some of the vampires. The opening scene is great (no spoilers), albeit a little gross. The movie _is_ gross, but if you're up for blood and gore you'll like this film. This movie dispels the romanticism of other vampire films, and has some very original ideas. There are some unanswered questions by the end of the movie, but it's great that this isn't a movie where every single shot and scene has to do with the plot. I only wish there was a different ending. Fight scenes are good, especially the last one. 10/10
