Critics Consensus

Buoyed by Caleb Landry Jones' haunting lead performance and Danny Elfman's lush score, Dracula reimagines the classic vampire myth as an emotionally charged gothic romance, yet its inconsistent tone holds it back from genre-defining greatness.

Here we are again, caught up in the never-ending slow-drip flood of cinematic Dracula mythology, now with Luc Besson’s wan, derivative, dutifully time-period-hopping, different-but-not-really-new take on the vampire legend.

C-

The cast’s deliveries on Besson’s punchlines are strong, and editor Lucas Fabiani keeps up his end of the deal when it comes to timing. But not even Jones isn’t funny or magnetic enough to sustain attention without the support of real suspense and allure.

2/4

The bloodsucking Count is back again, but this time in a strangely bloodless love story that even wickedly seductive fangboy Caleb Landry Jones can’t save from the cliché stockpile

Although this version of Dracula has impressive costume designs, this misguided horror/romance movie is a bloated and disjointed mess with an underwhelming ending. The tone is sometimes campy, sometimes serious, with an uneven quality of acting.

This Dracula is as elaborate and ambitious as it is sloppy.

4/5

There will be teeth-gnashing comparisons to Eggers’ Nosferatu (2024), adapted from Murnau’s 1922 fan-fic of Stoker’s 1897 novel, yet Besson’s Dracula feels like its moonlit counterpart rather than its echo, brothers from another mother, if you will.

The scenography and costume design is phenomenal however, nothing compares to the original as the performance of the actors and their selection was superb. The is the reason of one star less.

I think the movie is a good portrayal of longing and the feeling of love when it is taken away from you. The movie is more appreciated knowing this is a love story and not like other war based dracula movies.

I was so immersed that I became Dracula himself, 10/10 would recommend to all.
