Why did I want to see this film again? Someone must have dropped the “vampire” word, and I thought, “Why not? Will Smith¹ is a funny guy.” But as far as funny guys go, he’s more Keanu Reeves than Bill Murray—Eye rolls ‘r’ us when he tries to be serious.
The monsters in this movie are horrifying, as in, Egads! You spent how much money to generate such ridiculous, plastic baddies?
Half a star for the German shepherd’s riveting performance. [Sniffles] Excuse me while I hug my dog.

¹Nothing but fond memories of the first dubbed Hollywood movie I saw in Bologna—Independence Day: Il giorno della riscossa. Will Smith opened his mouth, and the most beautiful Italian filled the cinema.
