Better than I thought it would be. I was hoping the train crash would have been more exciting since that was the way it was pitched. It was fun to see the nods to actual history in the film and how the vampire story intertwined with it.
I don't like CGI characters doing the stunts. I would rather see actual people doing them. But then, some of them were clearly impossible. This film would probably have been better in 3D with all the blood spatters and flying people during the fights. And the train scene probably would have played better on a fifty foot tall screen, too.
The film was a workman like effort. Wasn't bad enough to be unintentionally funny. Wasn't good enough to say, wow that was good. Just sort of hangs there like an improperly deployed sanda side-kick.

So much for the flickr badge idea. Dammit
