Van Helsing

Watched the movie today - well, sporadically - on German TV. Gah, was it bad. Worse than bad, actually: stupid and boring. A stupid plot,low-budget monsters, characters completely without redeeming qualities and bad acting. I didn't even recognize David Wenham, although since I can't stand him anyway, it's probably no great loss.

I like vampire movies (and series). So I was doubly disappointed.

OTOH, today's CSI episode was a surprisingly good one. The bad guy was played by William whatshisname, I always forget - the same one who was the Section 31 agent in DS9. Interesting villains should always be played by good actors.

Oh, and BTW, my satellite receiver died on me. Again. When even your distractions abandon you, it's really major suckage. As if RL wouldn't suck enough already.

To be honest, I watched the movie like someone reads a boring book: every tenth page or so. I kept switching to other channels whenever I couldn't bear it anymore. Especially when the anorexic female lead appeared - she made me scratch myself bloody with sheer irritation.

So, you assume the move had a plot? Hmmm, I must have missed that. Alas, Hugh Jackman doesn't do a thing for me, half-naked or otherwise.
