First of all, was David Bowie art director and costume designer on this movie? Second of all, even Madonna is more believable as a British person than Keanu was. Madonna is Italian, she will never be British and neither will Keanu. He acts like Spiccoli doing masterpiece theater. Anthony Hopkins was good, though. Hopkins was the most true to the gauche Van Helsing of Stoker's novel, so that was cool. But substance was sacrificed for style. If I want to see lame, derivative eyecandy that mangles the Hammer aesthetic, I'll watch Sleepy Hollow. Oh, and Sleepy Hollow blows too. Way to squander Christopher Lee, Tim Burton. Way to squander a horror archetype, Coppola.
