Reviews for this film from our members:
- [New – 5/21/15] | Dragan Antulov @ FAK [Croatian]
- José Arce @ LaButaca.net [Spanish]
- Excerpt: Universal resta un poco más de épica a su propio legado con esta peliculita que no tiene muy bien a qué agarrarse. Historia disparatada, producción irregular, poca permanencia en la memoria.
- Nicholas Bell @ IONCINEMA.com
- Excerpt: While its title will open it up to a countless number of snarky comments, perhaps now that we’ve reached the Untold region we don’t have to march on into the Retold territory.
- Tim Brayton @ Antagony & Ecstasy
- Kevin Carr @ 7M Pictures
- Excerpt: Even if “Dracula Untold” isn’t the greatest version of the Dracula legend, I welcome it as a reboot of this shared universe from the 1940s.
- Bill Clark @ From The Balcony
- Laura Clifford @ Reeling Reviews
- Excerpt: Director Gary Shore and screenwriters Matt Sazama and Burk Sharpless meld history with mythology for an entertainingly cheesy period fantasy adventure cum origin film grounded by a committed performance by Luke Evans as Lord Impaler.
- Jim Dixon @ Examiner.com
- Excerpt: It’s tempting, if facile and snarky to say “Dracula sucks.” But…
- Mark Dujsik @ Mark Reviews Movies
- Excerpt: [W]hat we get is an overly familiar Dracula movie that lacks a distinguishing personality.
- James Jay Edwards @ FilmFracture
- Excerpt: ‘Dracula Untold’ Shows A Kinder, Gentler Prince Of Darkness
- Sarah Gopaul @ Digital Journal
- Excerpt: ‘Dracula: Untold’ entirely reimagines the famed vampire’s origin story, updating the tale for an audience raised on spectacle over subtlety.
- Susan Granger @ www.susangranger.com
- Excerpt: Is it damning with faint praise to say that this horror fantasy doesn’t totally suck?
- Vadym Grygoriev @ kinoblog.com [Ukrainian]
- MaryAnn Johanson @ FlickFilosopher.com
- Excerpt: A solid action fantasy more elemental and visceral than I expected, thanks to the potent presence of Luke Evans.
- Jeremy Kibler @ The Artful Critic
- Excerpt: Dracula Untold isn’t a tale that had to be left untold, but couldn’t someone have told it in a less stiff way? At least Luke Evans is the hunkiest Vlad the Impaler this world has ever seen.
- Stefan Pape @ HeyUGuys
- Excerpt: Breathes new life into an otherwise tired stomping ground, taking this story back hundreds of years and delving into the unknown origin story of the innovator himself, Mr. Dracula.
- João Pinto @ Portal Cinema [Portuguese]
- Excerpt: Numa visão geral torna-se díficil detestar esta obra. É claro que também é impossivél gostar dela.
- Jason Pirodsky @ Expats.cz
- Excerpt: Bram Stoker’s creation enters the world of George R. R. Martin in Dracula Untold, a supposed vampire movie that features precious little gothic horror, and instead combines Game of Thrones theatrics with epic (but bloodless PG-13) Braveheart-styled battle sequences. Terrific. This is exactly what Dracula fans have been clamoring for.
