Queen of the Damned

Definitivamente um filme. Acho muito digno ele ser essa ode ao glam rock e o nu metal, mas Jesus no terceiro ato parecia que não acabava nunca. Acho que a Akasha de Aaliyah tem presença de tela o suficiente para justificar sua presença, mas todos aqueles personagens definitivamente não tem. A representação mais fraca do Lestat que eu já vi em tela, o que não é tão culpa do Stuart Townsend, ele tá fazendo o melhor que pode, o lance é mais a direção que não consegue abstrair muita coisa. Felizmente o designe de produção e toda a estética do Nu Metal é funcional e pensar nesse mundo vampirico sendo exposto e a música como forma de alcançar as massas e a rainha vampira é muito bom. No mais é uma ótima ideia e bons conceitos que são sub-aproveitados!

Queen of the Damned

❝Immortality seems like a good idea, until you realize you're going to spend it alone.❞ ──────⊹⊱✫⊰⊹────── I really wanted to like this film but it was just so boring. The story only really started during the last thirty minutes and so many characters were underutilised in favour of what felt like a hundred shots of a skinny, preening Lestat. Stuart Townsend is probably a great actor but holy hell, I couldn't make it through two minutes without cringing. Akasha was actually interesting and Aaliyah (God rest her soul) was good but again, she only came into play towards the end and had no substance. The whole story with Jesse and her aunt was completely unnecessary too. The novel had so much mythology relating to the vampires that was left out of the film. I understand that it was 2002, but the CGI was pretty bad, and the camerawork could've been better. The only redeeming qualities are the sets and music; I knew as soon as I heard the violin piece that it was composed by an Indian artist, and I was right (L. Shankar is amazing). It's hard not to compare the two adaptations of Anne Rice's novels, but seriously, they're almost complete opposites in terms of quality; I don't think I'll be watching Queen of the Damned again.
