Transcript of Featured Review

The little Vampire um in this film is set Scotland which is you can tell by the golfing. The Little Vampire is from a late film about a young kid without any friends who befriends a vampire character about his age and he go up and have marvelous heartwarming adventures except for the fact that some parts of this film are extremely scary. I mean scary to a point where it's inappropriate for a film that which headed for juvenile audience which they would what they're trying to do with the movie. If wasn't for that I'd recommend it for like a family at least but there is that fortunately character that's in for families because by the time you're old enough the point where the scary theme is going to be scary you wouldn't like to sum it all really. You know teenagers adults those who are kind of bored by this film. And kids they basically will be scared too much by some of the scary scenes in this film. Here we are getting the darker sequences. Fortunately it didn't show up very well in the screen here. I thought then Lipnicki who plays the title role um this movie except for its scary sequences does everything by the book but if for worse which means I know the films is going to go um rather didn't really have any of the downer point except the dullness aspect. Uh however if you're looking for a movie where you have this child actor playing the character who doesn't have any friend and befriends a new character this would basically does it I mean we've seen it done before with E.T. where instead of a supernatural what called it creature [inaudible] because it was played by space alien. Uh in this one you have a vampire character who is not replaced by any kind of alien anything with the same qualities. It's just a vampire character and it reverse the whole reality uh aspect of vampires I mean vampires has really become some cultural [inaudible] I don't know the meaning of that word but it sounds great. For people who want to exercise freedom and being alive and not having any rules about it want them down. For as I mean it's worth material it's ancient legend and it's basically creature inhabiting dead bodies that are entirely homicidal and hate anything that's alive. I mean it had stories of evolving and evolving and people have been on it for their own purposes until they finally reach this point and the vampire storytelling her culture where suitable friends for children. And this movie is unfortunately is not suitable for children and not because of the weird nature of having a predator dangerous predator uh being turned into some sort of suitable playmate for children. Uh but it's too dull for teens and adults and some parts of it are too scary for kids so it's kind of just mix the entire movie a failure unless you have a young kid who can watch the movie without getting scared. Oh that's scary uh that's kind of unlikely so the audience who is someone kind of small. 00:03:38:00 I'm forced to give this movie a five out of ten.

The Little Vampire is excellently acted and great to look at. Stuart Little 's Jonathan Lipnicki carries, on his pint-sized shoulders, his every scene as 8-year-old Tony, befriender of vampires, and the Scottish setting lends itself nicely to spookiness. But where this video earns most points...

Summary
The Little Vampire is excellently acted and great to look at. Stuart Little 's Jonathan Lipnicki carries, on his pint-sized shoulders, his every scene as 8-year-old Tony, befriender of vampires, and the Scottish setting lends itself nicely to spookiness. But where this video earns most points is in the plot department. A continent away from his native California, Tony's having a tough time making new friends when a band of vagabond vampires enters his life through his bedroom window. The encounter seems pure coincidence at first, but then the scary truth surfaces: Tony, though he's not a vampire himself, has "sympathy for our kind," as the dad of the bat-linked brood puts it. Visions of vampire happenings from generations past invade the third-grader's consciousness, and they hold the key to the clan's current gypsy-like predicament. Through his clairvoyance and, by extension, the discovery of a long-lost amulet, the mostly benevolent bloodsuckers are able to reclaim their rightful status as proper cave dwellers in their homeland. Clueless-parent predicaments abound and are cleverer than most--Tony's mom and dad smirk at their son's vampire-obsessed imagination until the cape-draped heads of the clan drop by for a visit--and the gang's adventures eluding a bumbling vampire hunter are genuinely chuckleworthy. At-home Twizzler munchers ages 8 and older won't soon tire of this charmer of a Transylvanian transplant. --Tammy La Gorce
