Dylan Dog: Dead Of Night (2010)

i can imagine a few people really hating this film, because to be honest it wasn't exactly one that jumps out as being particularly fantastic, but personally, i found it brilliant and hilarious. although Dylan Dog is portrayed as a movie about this guy who solves supernatural crimes, and it's all scary and dangerous, i don't think they really took it too seriously when they made it; it's more just hilarious and a little bit quirky, and not at all scary, although bits of it did sort of remind me of Underworld. 

Although i did love Dylan (Brandon Routh), i think my favourite character has to be Marcus (Sam Huntington), who we watched struggling with learning to live with becoming a zombie and living off worms. he was absolutely adorable, and a perfect sidekick. Dylan was awesome too though, and although looking at pictures Brandon Routh doesn't seem particularly attractive, throughout the film he does seem to pull off some sort of charming handsomeness, which is always an important thing to think about when considering your main character.

the female eye-candy of the film was Elizabeth (Anita Briem) who i guess was supposed to be sort of kick ass, but also sort of a helpless heroine that Dylan needed to look after. to be honest, after a while she got a little bit annoying but she needed to be there to make the story work.

Overall i was pretty impressed with the whole thing, it had a weird sort of feel to it; like you were laughing along with the producers. although, i don't think i ever laughed out loud, it did make me smile a lot - it's just a simple, easy going movie with a little bit of humour and a little bit of horror. but not too much horror; i'd let my little sister watch it. in fact, i'm probably going to force her to watch it, because i know she'll enjoy it. 

of course, this is all just my opinion.. feel free to disagree...ܤ
