6/10. 60/100. | Not me thinking Krysten Ritter was a young Ann Hathaway or Eva Green 😅 And it seems like it takes place and filmed during the late 90's to early 2000's. Can't say that I'm wrong.

Inocentona y tonta pero a la vez divertida y fresca, me gustó mucho más de lo que esperaba. La dupla protagónica de Alicia Silverstone y Krysten Ritter la rompe, los papeles fueron escrito para ellas.

You would think this would be a cheesy movie and it does have some cheese but honestly it is a fun movie and was cast perfectly. It's an easy pleasant watch.

Not a great movie,of course,by any means.It was,I think billed as a horror comedy.Comedy ,more accurate.Do not think it was meant to be scary.Completely silly and ridiculous.Which,was I think it was meant to be.Sometimes,the humor works and sometime it does not.The 2 characters are Goody and Stacy,2 vampire friends who are more interested in having a good time than killing any humans.One thing,they get along too well.When Stacy play a practical joke on Goody at the start,she really does not get too upset about it.May have been funnier if they were more like the Odd Couple.Most of the vampires in the movie ,who have sworn off human blood are going to a group similar to Alcoholic Annonymous.However,as the movie progresses,it appear on of their number have not sworn off human blood.Dr.Van Helsing is called in,thus time he works for the Department of Homeland Security.As,of course Goody falls in love with his son.Won,t get away much,what happens with Stacy at the end is poignant,however seems out of place in a comedy.Not great.Not exactly terrible,either.Certainly,better than the so called horror comedy Stan Van Helsing which was never funny.As least,here some of the humor work.Good cast,too.Not a must see,by any means.Maybe,just somewhat enjoyable popcorn entertainment,if you do not take it ,too seriously.

Cheesy but chipper vampire comedy has modest charms.

Variety

In an era transfixed by zombies and assorted other ghouls, Vamps is a refreshing change of pace.

"Vamps" is mostly a misfire, but Heckerling still shows enough flashes of wit and wisdom that she remains hard to entirely dismiss.

Rated: 2.5/5

Cool People Have Feelings, Too. (Substack)

I enjoyed the hell out of its ambitions, both in terms of the filmmaking (at one point there are Ray Harryhausen style skeletons!) and it’s political and societal satire.

The main takeaway here is that for fans of her style, fans of Alicia Silverstone and Krysten Ritter, this is a fun watch and sometimes, fun is all you need.

Rated: 3.5/5

Nearly its entire running time rests on the antics of the two leads, who manage to remain an entertaining duo, even though they're really only being passed around from one satirical set piece to another.
