<em>'Blade: Trinity'</em> makes for a weak finale to this trilogy. I actually wasn't overly bothered by it whilst watching, though with the end credits I was kinda left wondering what I had just seen - as in it is all quite forgettable. Wesley Snipes remains the star, albeit not as great as before. The cast is the most fascinating aspect to this film. Jessica Biel, Dominic Purcell, Natasha Lyonne, Patton Oswalt, James Remar and even Triple H show up, and that's not even mentioning the obvious: Ryan Reynolds. A beta test of <em>'Deadpool'</em>, really. That style doesn't quite fit here. This is also one of those movies that has tasty behind the scenes stuff to read about, who doesn't love that?! It does have the feel of a film that caused disagreement. At least Snipes & Reynolds reconciled for <em>'Deadpool & Wolverine'</em>, because that was cool - even for someone like me who had evidently not seen <em>'Blade'</em>. I do hope we get that MCU reboot at some point in the future, if only because I reckon Mahershala Ali would kill it as lead; of course he wouldn't at all be able to replicate Snipes, but that's OK. It'd be interesting to see a fresh take on it with a larger budget et al.

"Blade" (Wesley Snipes) is now alone - surrounded by enemies bent on his destruction. Then, as luck would have it, he meets up with the "Nightstalkers", led by former vampire "Hannibal King" (Ryan Reynolds) and "Abigail" (Jessica Biel) who might just have developed a virus that could rid the world of vampires forever. To combat this threat, the vampires raise their king "Drake" (Dominic Purcell) and the battle lines are drawn in the ultimate fight for survival. Snipes is OK as a our leather-clad, mean, moody, hero but actually doesn't seem to feature so much - most of the action is driven by Reynolds who, whilst initially quite sarcastic and witty, rather overplays his hand and soon becomes just a bit too attitudinal; and Biel who appears to be on remote-control for much of her efforts. Purcell makes for quite a decent baddie, as does Parker Posey as "Danica Talos", though at times you do wonder if you should be shouting "boo, hiss" at the telly. There is plenty of fast-paced action throughout, but all in all this is just one, really pretty derivative sequel too many.

All 3 Blade movies are awesome in my opinion. This one is my favorite out of the series. It introduced at the time a different type and kind of vampire. This is movie is freakin' awesome.
