Bram Stoker's Dracula

Pros: Heavy on style: Great sets, costumes, photography.
Cons: Light on substance: Miscasting, campy performances hurt an otherwise great film.

Bram Stoker’s Dracula (1992)

You want style? We got style. OK, the one thing this movie has plenty of is style. Gobs and gobs of style. Style dripping off it...

Francis Ford Coppola is a stylish director -- there is no other...

Pros: Fantastic visuals and production design
Cons: Awful performances from Ryder, Reeves, and Hopkins and the script turns a Victorian horror novel into a romance

Bram Stoker’s Dracula: American Zoetrope/ Columbia Pictures Corp.
Rating: USA: R/ UK: 18

I can sum up director Francis Ford Coppola’s 1992 version of Bram Stoker’s Dracula in two words: Eye candy. For those of...

Pros: Coppola's Direction, Script, Cinematography, Look, Score, & Cast led by Oldman.
Cons: Keanu Reeves' Wooden Performance & Stuff Cut from the Adaptation of Book.

The story of Count Dracula by Bram Stoker has been a very popular story among horror fans. Cinematic versions were done since 1922's Nosferatu by F.W. Murnau and since then, there have been many versions. Some were good and some were bad. In ...

Pros: Oldman, Hopkins, costumes and sets, enjoyable enough.
Cons: This is not Bram Stoker's Dracula.

Somehow, Dracula had eluded me. Oh sure, I’d seen the classic thirties Universal version with an unforgettable performance by Bela Lugosi. Who hasn’t? But somehow, I never managed to see the latest version, 1992’s Bram Stoker’s ...

Pros: Cinematography.
Cons: Some acting feels..well...forced and haunted.

Dracula had everything a 14 year old could want. Blood, violence, loud music, nudity, sex, and above all – cool teeth (especially if you had braces like me at that age!) Enough to draw a seemingly innocent child, to the midnight showing without...

Pros: Interesting camera work, production design. Gary Oldman has his moments. Tom Waits.
Cons: Keanu Reeves. Occasional script holes.

Normy and I have been ensconced at Chateau Maine for over a week with no new entertainment offers coming in and we've been going a little stir crazy. Normy decided to head off incipient boredom by practicing his chip shots from the rose garden, but I ...

Pros: Won Three Oscars. Brilliant, beautiful and creepy.
Cons: Not really Bram Stoker's.

Bram Stoker’s Dracula (1992) Directed by Francis Ford Coppola. Screenplay by Jack V. Hart, There have been many vampire movies over the years, but periodically, we return to the source, Bram Stoker’s immortal epistolary classic. Some, ...

Pros: Excellent costumes, sets and soundtrack.
Cons: Poor English accents, bad acting.

It is a timeless tale. Good verses evil. The pure verses tainted. Based on the title Dracula alone it is at least worth one viewing. To say the acting is poor is being generous.

Keanu Reeves couldn't carry an English accent if it were...

Pros: Gary Oldman's oft-revered performance is at times engaging and genuine
Cons: Awful and cheap production values. Wooden cast. Lazy directing. Dire script.

Oh, how the once mighty have now fallen! Point in reference once enigmatic and untouchable powerhouse director Francis Ford Coppola. Coppola’s supposed genius went to his head amidst a flurry of sex, drugs and expectation resulting in his grandiose ...

Pros: good costumes, good sets, when it follows the book it's right no target
Cons: a really bad love story that is tacked on.

I got Bram Stokers Dracula the movie a little while ago, when I was reading the book Bram Stokers Dracula. Well I have watch the movie after finishing the book and well to say one thing the movie is interesting but the real title should have said Francis ...

Pros: Gary Oldman makes evil look sexy and inviting.
Cons: He died in the end.

From the opening scene to the end, Bram Stokers Dracula is exciting, thrilling and strangely inviting. The casting was excellent and the acting was sufficient. This movie had everything a woman could ask for...romance-the old fashioned kind, excitement,...

Pros: The Cast, Costumes, Atmospheres, Set Designs, Music, and the Special Features
Cons: Nothing really except Keanu

He Is Unlike Any Man... There is one man who can be called as being the king of all vampires. He is considered to be one of the greatest figures in literature and one of the most erotic on the screen. Bram Stoker's novel Dracula, with its ...

Pros: Looks great, if odd. Lady Winona and Hopkins are excellent. Oldman is fun, if freaky.
Cons: Weird-o casting (REEVES). Rather too much scenery chewing. Some stagy SFX. Violent, bloody, etc.

Francis Ford Coppola is one of America's best know and most respected film directors. Unless you don't watch movies, you've probably seen something by Coppola. His oeuvre includes films such as "Apoca lypse Now", ...

Pros: Closest film adaptation yet of the classic novel, gorgeous costumes and lavish sets.
Cons: Keanu Reeves could have stood a little more accent coaching.

For at last bringing to the screen all the major players from the classic novel producer/director Francis Ford Coppola deserves applause for this adaptation of Bram Stoker's Dracula. And although it does not keep altogether true to the original's romance...

Pros: The sunglasses, Anthony Hopkins humping someone's leg
Cons: Bad accents, too much cheese, slutty/not sexy

Bram Stoker's Dracula starts off with a bang. Gary Oldman is a tough crazy count from Transylvania who is off protecting God's Church. He hacks up some of God's enemies while wearing the most stylish armour I could conceive never existing in the middle...
