This movie has a very low imdb ranking ... no idea why, it's maybe not A material but an enjoyable, entertaining B-movie with a nice mix between fun and horror. Eddie Murphy is acting a bit outside his usual schtick but I must say he gave us an impressive vampire; Angela Bassett is also great but maybe a bit underwritten - her character should be much more badass. Among the main cast, Allen Payne is the only one lacking - between the strong performances of the two leads, he's looking severely bloodless.
The action was low-key, at the beginning there's a massive ship crash which gave me hope for some big-scale action, but that's about the biggest set in the movie. No problem, there's good tension throughout which makes up for any missing car chases or explosions.
