"Blade framed for a crime, you say? What an original plot for a comic-book spin-off..."
To be fair, it was the third film, al of them written by the same writer, and the thrillpower banks were maybe running low by that point. The previous two films had managed to get by without the real world and the forces of law and order in amy way impeding on Blade's trail of vampire-hunting death and destruction.
I also thought the villains and their motivations were spectacularly uninteresting this time around. The first two films were all about vampire power politics, while Blade was just out to kill vampires. This time, it was Blade and his pals who had the big plan, while the bad guys' motivation extended no further than "Get Blade!"
