5.0 out of 5 stars Dracula Untold is dark fantasy at it's throat-ripping best!
Reviewed in the United States on October 16, 2016

This movie is a grand example of how one should not trust the reviews and half-assed critiques one will find regarding movies that are all too often pushed aside for common sensationalist pap. Take a chance, and trust in your own instincts regarding films, and you will find that many will suit you just fine, and may in fact, prove to be far better than you ever would have thought. This, my friends, is one of the good ones.

For the fans of the classic legends of vampires, this movie shows that it is possible to bring a new spin to a venerable creature of the night. Even the fans of the "fluffier" style of vampire might enjoy the romantic side of the titular character. But, unlike modern vamps, who are written to avoid the difficulties of daylight, or blood, or silver, Vlad Tepes/Dracul brings us back to those roots and demonstrates how an old school vampire manages 'like a "sir"'.

"Vlad Tepes (Luke Evans) is the Prince of Wallachia /Transylvania. Vlad and his men find a helmet that means an Ottoman scouting party is clearing the way for an invasion force. At Broken Tooth Mountain, Tepes finds a cave littered in bone fragments. Inside the dark depths they are savaged by a fiendishly strong man-like creature, whose speed, sharp teeth and keen red eyes, spell the death of all of Tepes' men, but not without cost. The wounded creature attempts to make Tepes his victim, but halts when sunlight causes his blood to burn and turn to ash on the wind. Vlad returns to his keep, and a monk informs him that a vampire, once a man who bargained with the devil for power, is accursed, and must remain in his rocky prison until he can pass his curse to another through a pact sealed with the vampire's own blood.

Time passes, and Tepes is with his wife and son when a Turkish entourage arrive and see audience. Tepes offers them the customary tributes of silver coins, but the Sultan, named Mehmed, states that a contingent of Turkish men are missing, with the clear indication that Tepes was behind their disappearance. He then demands an additional tribute of 1,000 boys to be trained as soldiers. Tepes refuses the demand, but he knows his army is insufficient to repel the Turks if they should attack, so he asks Mehmed, who has known him since childhood, to show leniency and leave the children be. Mehmed is not swayed by his request and Tepes then offers himself in their stead. The Sultan then demands that Tepes' own son must come also. The boy tells his father that he is ready to join the Sultan's army, but Tepes kills the Sultan's men knowing that his actions will lead to war.

Driven to desperation, Tepes revisits the cave seeking help from the vampire who tells him of the steep price of such a bargain. He holds forth a skull bowl containing a large amount of blackish vampire blood, and informs him that if he is able to resist human blood for three days, the deal will be nullified and he will retain his humanity. But, should he fail, he will inherit the blood curse of vampirism for all eternity and he will be required to render aid to the vampire when he finds his maker and seeks revenge upon him. Knowing that he has no choice if he is to save his people and his family, Tepes agrees and drinks the creature's blood completely. Immediately, he is wracked with pain, and through gritted teeth he asks:

"What happens now?"

The vampire turns away as he says:

"Now, you die."

Drawing from history surrounding the actual Prince of Wallachia, the movie incorporates a heroic view of the main character, just as residents of that area hold now. In this way, the story is a clever blend of romanticism, heroic sacrifice, infamous legend and historic events that is altogether entertaining and enjoyable. It's dark, and moody and the characters are well played. For those with teens and preteens, it's not all that bloody or gore-ridden, depending more on facial reactions and dizzying action to depict violence. There is one sexual situation that is quite tame, and the movie doesn't rely on foul language or crudity to carry the story. From beginning to end, it was a good vampire romp with great actors, great costumes, and dizzying quantities of bats. How cool is that!?

If you are weary of vampires with the Star Trek: Next Gen. sinus-problem makeup to make them look "scary", or vampires that have had all the gritty, bitey fun stripped away, including the fangs, then join me in some classical throat-sucking warfare that you'll really enjoy. The end of the film implies a sequel, which I do hope eventually gets made, and I for one, want more! A lot more! I've honestly had all the wimpy sparkly vamps I can handle for one lifetime.

4.0 out of 5 stars Mixed feelings, but, a good movie nonetheless
Reviewed in the United States on July 24, 2023

I just watched this movie and I have mixed feelings, but, it's a good movie nonetheless. I actually enjoyed this movie much more than I did "Bram Stoker's Dracula" the Francis Ford Coppola movie. The story and actors are much better and engaging than "Bram Stoker's Dracula."

However, there are some things about this movie that I didn't particularly like.

SPOILER ALERT
Vlad Tepes aka Vlad The Impaler has now achieved peace in his homeland and rules with his family. The problem is, he is portrayed as a nice, amenable family man, almost mild mannered. Which is not the way you'd expect someone that was as ruthless and someone who impaled the bodies of his enemies all over the battlefield to behave. There doesn't appear to be a mean bone in his body. That doesn't seem plausable. He is forced to decide to give up his young son and 999 other of his countrymen's male youths for forced draft into the Sultan's army or to fight against them and their huge army.

Previously, he had a deadly encounter with a vampire trapped by curse in a mountain cave and he goes back to make a deal with the vampire for his power. He agrees to receive the vampire's power for 3 days (in order to conquer the Sultan's army) after which he loses the powers, but, if he drinks human blood he will permanently become a vampire himself. Sounds great! But, he continuously wastes the little time that he has to defeat the enemy when he knows he cannot fight during the day. He fritters away the few hours he has to fight the army while sun up isn't far away by spending his little time with his wife. Which gets her killed while he's fighting, which he could have done before the enemy got to the foothills of the fortress they are hiding out in. He lets them come to him and his family. instead of taking the fight to them. Another disappointment is the first engagement that he has with the approaching army of 1000 of the Sultans soldiers. They start out with a fairly good battle between him and the entire army. But, he's supposed to have super human strength and superhuman speed, which he doesn't seem to employ as he fights using his sword at regular speed. The only power he employs of to disappear into a flock of bats, when an enemy soldier strikes at him. I remember the TV series The Strain with good guy vampire Quintelles, who had and used his super speed. It's just disappointing that they didn't employ this super speed in the battle scenes. The vampire in the cave did exhibit super speed. Also, disappointing was the scene at the end with the Sultan having knowledge of vampires and casting silver coins all over the interior of his tent waiting to trap and kill Tepes character. Instead of using his powers of super speed and turning into bats, he only fights conventionally against the sultan to save his captured son, and almost dies because of it. Why did he not use his powers to save his son??????
SPOILER ALERT OVER

This movie was pretty good, but, could have been great if they didn't remake the Vlad Tepes character into a noble, mild mannered family man. Someone that impales his enemies on spikes all over the battlefield is not a mild mannered family man. Also, it could have been fantastic if they had not shortened the battle scenes and they had Tepes use his vampire powers to the max in fighting the huge enemy army.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Different Take on A Horror Classic:
Reviewed in Canada on February 28, 2015
Verified Purchase
This film gives a refreshing take on legendary prince, military leader and mass murdering horror staple, Dracula aka Vlad the Impaler. Luke Evans plays Vlad Tepes, the prince who would become Dracula as a noble, peace-loving man with a murderous past. The story is narrated by his son Ingeras (Art Parkinson ) and is an attempt to present a non-demonized depiction of Dracula which in its direct Transylvanian translation means “Son of the Dragon” versus “son of the devil” it would later come to signify. Evans infuses Vlad with a worried, conflicted personality, presenting equal parts strength of character and the knowledge of hidden, darker nature beneath. This might not be the star making vessel Mr. Evans has been looking for, but it is certainly a good step forward. Having two Peter Jackson’s opuses under his belt doesn’t hurt either via his role as “Brand” in both “The Desolation of Smaug” and “The Battle of the Five Armies” Hobbit franchise.

Through “D.U.”, the character of Vlad is not presented in too sterling a light as he was a formidable warrior known as “the Impaler” for his vicious psychological warfare techniques. His backstory is hinted at via his son’s narration indicating the practice of the time of the Turks “recruiting” young boys for the army. The technique was to bring the children in young so that they had formed little attachment to their familes; then mold them into a formidable military force under the Sultan’s Rule. The Sultan Mehmed II is played by Dominic Cooper. He plays him as brilliant, tactical and uncompromising. This is a solid, non ‘over the top’ performance. Mehmed’s goal is world conquest and he will get his ranks built up by any means. This is also the focal point of this story and motivation for Vlad becoming the dark force that is Dracula.

We learn that young Vlad was paid as a tribute, given to Mehmed’s father as a soldier. He would go on to become an ultimate warrior, killing in Turkey’s name using impalement as a means of demoralizing enemies. When he obtains his freedom, he is given the princedom of Translyvania, a tribute territory of Turkey. We learn that through Vlad, his people have known peace for a ten year period. As the viewer is well aware of the Dracula legend, however, we know readily enough that this aspect will be fleeting. Evans presents Vlad as a kindly husband and father whose sole goal is the protection of his people. A scouting mission brings with it the knowledge that the Turks are sending scouting parties at Translyvania’s borders. A subsequent search of a mountain reveals that someone or something has been eliminating the Turk scouts. A cursory examination of the cave shows that is made up largely of bones. The altercation with the cave occupant and master vampire (Charles Dance) leads to the death of Vlad’s two friends and very nearly his own were it not for his fortunate scrambling toward the cave exit and the light of the sun refracting upon his sword pushing away the vampire. The stage is now set for Dracula’s origins.

D.U. is very briskly paced at a tight hour and a half. There is no fat on this film. It is lean, sleek and adrenaline-fueled. Everyone knows something about the Lord of Vampires, so heavy exposition is not needed. On Easter, Mehmed’s men enter Vlad’s castle imperiously and tell him that the silver tribute is not the only requirement the Turks desire. Mehmed has reinstituted the practice of taking a thousand village boys for his army. Vlad’s wife presses him to meet with the Sultan and ply him with the two’s former friendship when he was the latter’s father’s soldier. With due gravitas, Vlad rides off knowing the outcome is a foregone conclusion. When the meeting with the Sultan goes as expected and Mehmed makes the further demand of his son as tribute, Vlad’s hand is forced. His wife Merina (Sarah Gadon) charges him with finding another way. Seeing his wife’s distress and his son being torn from his side, Vlad takes the steps toward gaining the power he needs to stave off the Turks.

Charles Dance as the master vampire is duly menacing, creepy and Faustian in his portrayal. He sees something in Vlad that mirrors his own strength and darkness. While restraining him, the elder charges Vlad with telling him how many he has killed in his military career and further tasks him with telling him how he felt after such acts. The numbers are thousands and the feeling is “nothing” which Vlad states is an “even greater sin”. The master offers him a bargain where he may drink of his blood and obtain the strength he needs to defeat his enemies over the course of three days. If he can refrain from giving in to the thirst, upon completion of his task, he will revert to his mortal state and be no worse for the wear. Should he drink human blood, however, he will remain in a damned state for eternity. The master pulls for the latter outcome as it will eliminate the curse confining him to his cave to end and allow him freedom to roam the outside world. Again the conclusion is foregone, we know Vlad will become Dracula and Lord of the Vampires. The master’s mention of calling upon Vlad’s services at some point, should he escape his prison, is an extra caveat.

The final catalyst to Vlad’s becoming damned however is an act of sacrifice rather than hubris, giving the character genuine sympathy for the first time in a long time. The battles which ensue, including the manifestation via CGI of Dracula’s abilities, are brilliantly done. His transforming into bats to illustrate both his speed and unnatural power is fantastic. His maestro-like conducting of his winged onslaught on the Turks is masterful and meant for the big screen. Also the term “Bat-tle” is unquestionably redefined in this flick. Sorry, couldn’t help using that one. The tragedy of not knowing your opponent or ultimate consequences or one’s actions is illustrated in grand detail with the denouement at the monastery. The final battle between Drac and Mehmed illustrates the latter’s militaristic prowess and intelligence. The use of Mirena’s fate as ultimate motivation for embracing the darkness provides a more noble aspect to the antihero’s transformation. The film’s finale opens the way for a sequel and a potential recompense for Vlad’s suffering. The reigniting of an eternal battle is illustrated with the key line “Let the Games Begin.” Very enjoyable, epic big screen fare that is easily worth 92 minutes of your time.

5.0 out of 5 stars positiv überrascht
Reviewed in Germany on October 8, 2014

The media could not be loaded.
   zuerst gedacht "nicht noch ein Film mit diesem Thema"

Nach der ganzen Hysterie um "Twilight" und andere Teenie & Vampir - Geschichten, und dem Gerede von so manchen nicht wirklich gründlich nachdenkenden Leuten (wenn es genau genommen wird: sonst ist eine Beziehung oder etwa eine Liebesgeschichte zwischen einem [meist minderjährigen] Mädchen und jemand, der älter, eigentlich [und zum Glück] strafbar... und ein sterbliches Mädchen/Frau und ein Vampir [die Personifikation von Verführung und Wollust] - ist das so viel anders? Auch wenn dieses Mädchen dann erwachsen wird/ist?), war es ähnlich wie zu Zeiten der Verfilmung von "Herr der Ringe": die Massen schwärmen und treiben einen Kult wie um das goldene Kalb.

Dann kann es doch nicht wirklich so gut sein... hatte die Bücher gelesen und entsprechend Erwartungen. Irgendwie fühlte ich mich auch fremd inmitten dieser Hysterie/Besessenheit und Fanatismus. Wenn so etwas geschieht ist dann automatisch "Rebellion" dagegen. So eine Hysterie kann alle Freude wirklich verderben

Aber nach dem Film "Bram Stoker's Dracula" von Francis Ford Coppola, ist auch "Dracula untold" eine positive Überraschung.
Postiv ist zum einen auch mehr Tiefe für die historische Gestalt (und nicht nur die mythische Seite, wobei der kleine Ausflug dazu in die Mythologie sehr interessant ist - im antiken Griechenland sowie in anderen antiken Kulturen war ein Pakt mit dem Übersinnlichen, sei es "gut" oder "böse" immer eine zweischneidige Angelegenheit: ein sehr empfehlenswertes Buch dazu ist "Das Haus des Dädalus" von Kai Mayer, oder die eine oder andere Sage. Es gibt auch genug Sagen, in denen es keinen Unterschied zwischen Elfen und Vampiren gibt. Mit der Ernährung und dieser Ambivalenz: als wohlgesonnen oder feindlich gesinnt zu erscheinen). Und mehr Tiefe für die Geschichte (wer Geschichte in der Schule langweilig fand, könnte das an dem Film vielleicht auch als langweilig finden).
Gezeigt wird eine zerrissene Hauptfigur, die als Kind in die Fremde kam und zum Killer - nicht nur zum Krieger - ausgebildet worden ist (erinnert an "Conan" oder "Wolfhound"), sich dagegen sträubt die Krone nur als Vasall der ehemaligen Peiniger zu tragen, und doch so sehr Frieden und Freiheit für sein Reich, seine Untertanen und vor allem für seine Familie wünscht.
Der Film könnte die Lücken schließen in Coppolas Werk: zwischen dem kurzen Anfang (im Mittelalter) und der eigentlichen Geschichte aus dem Roman (scheint in der viktorianischen Zeit angesiedelt zu sein).
Und dann (Vorsicht "spoiler":) gibt es gegen Ende einen Sprung in die Gegenwart (und diese weitere "Mina", die der Verstorbenen so ähnelt, scheint diesmal nicht verloren zu gehen)

Allerdings ist der Zeitpunkt des Films unglücklich gewählt, wegen dem gegenwärtigen Weltgeschehen: eine neue Macht (werde den Namen bewusst nicht nennen, weil es für mich wie Propaganda wirkt, und diese Leute sind für mich KEINE Helden) ist entstanden und bedroht, foltert und tötet Andersgläubige und auch Mitgläubige, Männer, Frauen und Kinder (erinnert irgendwie an eine Aussage im Film, dass Leute weniger eine Armee fürchten als wie Monster, die Angst und Schrecken verbreiten). Eine Folge davon ist Misstrauen und Angst, und auch Feindseligkeit für Leute, die der Religion angehören, die doch eigentlich auch von Frieden, Nächstenliebe und Toleranz spricht, oder?
Besonders heikel ist es gerade, weil es im Film ziemlich eindeutig ist, wer die "Bösen" sind.
