Vlad lll—Prince of Wallachia was born in 1431 in Sighisoara, Romania(just a little ways from where most of my family was born). Dracula Untold focuses on the story of Dracula(Luke Evans), who is trenchantly looking to defeat the Turks and save all of the people in his town. The trials then lead Vlad lll to the “Master Vampire,” and now has very few days to vanquish his enemies with the surprise powers that were given to him. I thought the film could have been a little more creative and a little less “let’s just add some chapters,” about Dracula and hope the public enjoys the screenplay.
I frankly couldn’t relate to the movie and I’m ROMANIAN and know the culture, heritage etc. Personally, I feel that if there is no connection, no relation then maybe, the movie was a good idea just poorly executed. I did enjoy the cinematography, I thought that all the shots were well though out, every angle, every lighting adjustment looked perfect. The acting was great, Luke Evans did an excellent job being the antagonistic character.
As for the rest of the cast, great job on the hard work because I felt the screenplay was poorly written and executed, I don’t feel that the acting was where it needed to be for Dracula Untold. Characters weren’t given a lot of screen time(which makes it really hard to love or hate a character). The character development was terrible and un-relatable. In my opinion it’s very important for your audience to relate. It just didn’t happen with Dracula Untold.
Over all rating: 40/100
Great job to the cast for working on such a difficult and poorly written script. You guys did everything to the best of your ability. That’s what got the film a 40/100. If you have seen the film what did you think? And if you haven’t check out the trailer below.
