Teenager Rose Hathaway (Zoey Deutch) is a Dhampir -- a human/vampire hybrid. Her best friend is Lissa Dragomir (Lucy Fry), a princess of the Moroi -- mortal, peaceful vampires. Both teens attend St. Vladamir's Academy, a secret haven for those like them. Rose trains with a handsome mentor (Danila Kozlovsky) to guarantee her place as Lissa's guardian -- although she may have to sacrifice everything to protect Lissa from enemies both within St. Vladamir's walls and outside them.

Critics Consensus

Though it may appeal to its built-in fanbase, Vampire Academy's Twilight-meets-Mean Girls conceit borrows lazily from its predecessors and offers few laughs or thrills to complement its overstuffed backstory.

Another young-adult adaptation bites the dust.

A film that attempts to satire the popular love triangle romances of the current day, yet falls into the same tired cliches of said films.

Rated: D+

The Australian

The screenplay by Daniel Waters, the director's brother, is stuffed with puerile dialogue, all the more disappointing given that, back in 1988, he wrote one of the best school movies, Heathers.

Rated: 1/5

The mix of horror and comedy don't entirely work and the supporting characters aren't memorable, but as a comedic lead, this is the perfect star vehicle for Zoey Deutch.

Rated: 3/5

... All of the magic and secret ancient race gobbledygook in Vampire Academy is just so much mush.

Filme fraco, o roteiro é fraco, as cenas são fracas, a história é fraca, o elenco é fraco, e ninguém ajuda a melhorar o filme, os personagens são fracos, e o filme deveria ter cenas bem melhores e relevantes, para fazer o filme ser bom

I very much enjoyed this movie as I believe the plot was very engaging and a pretty well put together, maybe messy at times but still quite good. also had great performances from the cast. The only real problem I had was with some of the editing and a few of the directors choices. Overall a very fun movie that I’ll probably watch again.

The acting is so rigid and flavorless, it makes the Twilight Saga look like Oscar Award winning performances. I can't even begin with how horrible the script is, and how bad the plot was. It makes a poorly written fanfiction by a 13 year old with bad grammar look more appealing.
