Tilda Swinston and Tom Hiddleston provide an everyday insight into what life may be like living as a vampire. While some may find the constant list-like references to historical references tiresome and cumbersome, the actual plotline is compelling. From dealing with awkward relatives, to loosing one's family, the movie takes the audience through the full gamut of human emotions. There's little to take away from the movie, which struggles at times from poor pacing, but overall the quality of the actors shines through - the lack of CGI and other flashy "modern" content gives them a great platform to really sell their character's emotions. This is certainly a movie you should see, but as long as you realize this isn't going to be your modern superficial computer-generated flick.

I really enjoyed this movie. IT was like watching a book unfold, with a thoughtful plot and great character development. It's not a high action vampire movie, but rather looks at the depths of human emotion and bonds. Tom Hiddleston and Tilda Swinton gave first rate performances. I am looking forward to seeing this movie again.

It's beautiful and a little sexy, but it's also funny! Not outright comedy, but intelligent- funny dialogue.

Ok, I have to admit a bias, I really enjoy Tom Hiddleston as an actor. With that said, I really loved this movie. Original story line, amazing cast, excellent soundtrack...an all round good time. This is not your typical vampire flick. Most surprising is just how honestly human it feels. I will buy this movie on blu-ray as soon as it available, so I can watch it again and again.
