Van Helsing

Can a movie overdose on special effects? After "Van Helsing", the answer is a resounding "YES!"

I doubt there's more than 2% of footage that doesn't have any CGI/SPX in the frame.

The characterizations are pretty weak, but the movie trudges on, with most of the budget on the screen, but in a very non-compelling fashion. The special effects somewhat fun, but overwhelming after a while.

I give it 2 stars or a grade of C (for charitable).
