Critics Consensus

Louder, campier, and more incoherent than its predecessors, Blade: Trinity seems content to emphasize style over substance and rehash familiar themes.

I'm a great fan of Blade, the Marvel Comics vampire hunter played by Wesley Snipes... But a third episode, Blade: Trinity, directed by David S. Goyer, is a blood fest too far.

The only one who seems to be having much fun, though, is Parker Posey, camping it up as one of the vampires.

Dynamic Duel Podcast

Low-stakes action, nonexistent character development, campy villains, and a sidelined main character make the film feel like it's trying to ice skate uphill.

Rated: 2.5/5

Leave it to Parker Posey to be the best part of two major horror franchises' dismal third entries.

If you are looking for a film with insight and depth, see Sideways. If you are looking for a throwaway guilty pleasure with a bark louder than its bite, this is the movie for you.

Terrible movie, highly recommend it. Wesley Snipes is clearly tired of playing the role straight and decided to ham it up to the absolute max throughout the whole movie. I feel like any time someone on set would give him a direction he'd just say, "F*uck you, Blade ain't doin that"'and sneak off to his trailer to get stoned. All the dialogue between characters is God awful and unintentionally funny. It's interesting to see the origin of the Ryan Reynolds Deadpool performance even if most of the quips barely get a chuckle. Dracula aka Drake (lol) feels like a bad casting but I kick outta his character looking like the most racial stereotype of a Persian man possible. Jessica Biel is completely flat, obviously. She wasn't on screen for her acting chops. But her body is actually really impressive for an early 2000s female physique before women understood that you could actually lift weights and not look "too bulky". Like that's ever happened to anyone On Accident. Go ahead, you try it. All in all, it's fun as hell. Keep expectations real low and give it a watch.

This carries the same gothic style and club-driven energy as the earlier films, but the execution feels uneven. The action is choppier, some of the design choices look cheap, and the new supporting cast doesn’t always mesh with the tone. While there are flashes of fun, the balance between grit and humor never quite clicks, leaving this entry less impactful than its predecessors.

I very like this one, not as good as the 1st but better than the second 1 in my opinion. Dracula is dead cool & would kick Thanos's arse if he needed too. HHH deserved an Oscar for his role too lol

It’s 2025, and I decided to watch this movie again. What in the blue hell was Goyer thinking? The first two are masterpieces and helped pave the way for Marcel cinematic universe. This installment? Probably should have killed it. It’s god-awful on so many levels.
