Blade 2 is better than the first one. Fact.
Blade 2 is a seminal, life changing film. Fiction.
Blade 2 is another one off the 'good movie' branch, it's entertaining and fun. There's not much to say about it that isn't the same as the first one, other than it takes the things it does in the first one, such as awesome fights and deaths but does them a little bit more frequently. There's less talking and exposition in this one, and when there is talking it's swiftly interrupted with fighting.
There are 'funnier' characters in this film. I use inverted commas because they still aren't that funny, just a bit quirkier. It's a lot more hollywood than the first outing. The inclusion of Ron Perlman is ALWAYS good, because that guy is funny. Funny looking and acting. There is one thing that got me, and that is DANNY JOHN JULES. When did Katt from Red Dwarf hit the acting so hard? I remember him in Lock Stock or Snatch (I can't remember which one he's in) but I didn't realise he'd actually got anywhere with it.
It's a Guillermo film but there's not that much in it that pins it to him. There aren't too many wierd creatures, and there's 25 minutes before there's a cog and it's not on screen for that long at all.
Anyway, watch this, and you don't really need to have seen the first one because there are plenty flashbacks.
