Comments:
- Outstanding technical copy
- The movie starts out very well, slowly but surely building up the suspense that ultimately led to the “invasion” by the vampires during the start of the 30 days of night in a settlement in Alaska. However, I felt it sort of slowed down in the middle, w/ the writers running out of innovation when it came to how the survivors will last thru the remaining days of night, often resorting to having the main characters survive each situation thru sheer luck (i.e., the normally numerous vampires suddenly thin out to 1 or 2 in critical showdowns)
- Still, a good enough movie to watch. Some of the scenes are absolutely gorgeous, like the sunsets, & shots of the settlement. I felt overall the people behind the movie did a good job of transporting a Graphic Novel into the big screen
- Lots of suspense & action, some incredibly gory scenes, though, like the decapitation of a vampire towards the end of the movie.
- Highly recommended, but only for those who are not too squemish.
