Eckhart is horrible. I would have considered seeing it if ANYONE other than he were playing Frankie.

Looks like it'll be a mindless action movie.

I'm a sucker for crummy action movies like this though.

Exactly. It looks like crap and it reminds me of Priest or Legion in its level of crumminess. Those are two bad movies I'm a sucker for.

I could not disagree more.

I think Eckhart is money, but this is a shite role.

Will not watch

my review of the trailer

looks like it will be around the level of Van Helsing in that there will be some pretty cool ideas and interesting usage of Gothic horror monster lore but overall it will be a muddled mess with a disappointing storyline and very uneven CG.

C+

Another good comparison with Van Helsing. Does it have a Kate Beckinsale?

This is one of those roles where Eckhart has his "one for me" movies.

Wanted to do an action movie and chose the shitties script.

I like Eckhart a lot, but this looks like a CGI nightmare. I agree with everyone that said it looks like a Van Helsing, Legion, Priest, Constantine, etc....we all know how this is gonna go.

Me too.

This of course lead me into a theatre screening 47 Ronin, so it has its drawbacks

I'll pass.

Looks like a "subtle" Abe Lincoln: Vampire Hunter

I like movies like this so yeah I'm gonna see it. Could care less what some of the "sophisticated" critics on this board think. If I'm entertained, then that was a good movie. And I don't critique a movie til it's over and then only as a whole. Heck, I can critique the little things in any movie.

As for Eckhart, after his role in Battle for L.A. I like him in these kind of movies better than when he is in the romantic comedy movies.

With all that said, I hope it doesn't suck.

I will not spend more than the price of a rental on something like this.
