Editorial Review:
Like a roller coaster ready to fly off its rails, Van Helsing rockets to maximum velocity and never slows down. Having earned blockbuster clout with The Mummy and The Mummy Returns, writer-director Stephen Sommers once again plunders Universal's monster vault and pulls out all the stops for this mammoth $148-million action-adventure-horror-comedy, which opens (sans credits) with a terrific black-and-white prologue that pays homage to the Universal horror classics that inspired it. The plot pits legendary vampire hunter Van Helsing (Hugh Jackman) against Dracula (the deliciously campy Richard Roxburgh), his deadly blood-sucking brides, and the Wolfman (Will Kemp) in a two-hour parade of outstanding special effects (980 in all) that turn Sommers' juvenile plot into a triple-overtime bonus for CGI animators. In alliance with a Transylvanian princess (Kate Beckinsale) and the Frankenstein monster (Shuler Hensley), Van Helsing must prevent Dracula from hatching his bat-winged progeny, and there's so much good-humored action that you're guaranteed to be thrilled and exhausted by the time the 10-minute end-credits roll. It's loud, obnoxious, filled with revisionist horror folklore, and aimed at addicted gamers and eight-year-olds, but this colossal monster mash (including Mr. Hyde, just for kicks) will never, ever bore you. A sequel is virtually guaranteed. --Jeff Shannon

Van Helsing [UMD for PSP] Reviews:
Van Helsing
2009-12-18 - The movie was fantastic. Van Helsing is a great ride, lots of action, very entertaining movie. I recomend this movie to everyone who wants to go out and have some fun.

blu ray is always the best
2009-12-13 - I have watched this movie a few times on regular DVD palyer before I bought this blu ray format. The blu ray could just increase your enjoyment of the movie and make you not want to watch regular DVD movies because they are so different in so many ways.

The PERFECT Halloween party of a movie!
2009-12-03 - Super fun flick - Sort of a funky, cool homage to all the vintage monster movies it's based on. Frankenstein, Dracula, Werewolf, vampires, etc. all rolled into one. The casting & actors are superb! Awwwesome special effects, costuming & period sets. Visually robust w/ an amaaazing rendition of Dracula played by Richard Roxburgh. His super hot 3 vampire wives are not to be missed. An all-star cast, including Hugh Jackman & Kate Beckinsale in sexy roles that rival X-Men & Underworld, if you can believe that. The bonus features are well done & well worth the extra few bucks. A little tongue-in-cheek but entirely entertaining, esp. if you watch it more than once.

Great movie, totally worth buying
2009-12-02 - [[ASIN:B002HML6Y8 Van Helsing [Blu-ray]
I have watched Van Helsing many times before, but viewing it on Blu-ray on my HDTV brings it to a whole new level. The little details that I never thought I would notice are clear as day. From the actors wrinkles to the detailed fur on the Wolf Man. The sound is sweet just as well. I just wish I had a home theater system to excel the experience of watching the movie.
I like Van Helsing for several reasons. It captures the interest of many viewers with action, science fiction, comedy and romance. Even though it's a little more than two hours long, I sat on the edge of my seat through the whole film the first time I watched it. Van Helsing is one of my favorite movies, and I would recommend buying it on Blu-ray to get all the extra bonus features.

FUN RIDE !
2009-12-02 - This is a great presentation of this non-stop thrill ride of a film . I recomend this blue-ray to anyone that wants to see an action packed monster movie that is fun for both young and old.-Dave Grant
