Academy Award Winner Francis Ford Coppola directs this lavish adaptation of one of the most terrifying tales of all time. Gary Oldman plays the undead Count who falls in love with a beautiful young woman (Winona Ryder), a dead ringer for his true love who perished centuries earlier. Hopkins plays the vampire-hunter Van Helsing, who recognizes Dracula's unimaginable evil and seeks his final demise.

This is a roller coaster of ups and downs. Coppola created a fantastic atmosphere of gothic imagery, and the fantastic performances of Oldman and Hopkins are wonderful to watch. Watching the performance of Keanu Reeves was not fantastic. There also seemed to be a lot missing to the point where it felt somewhat incomplete. Overall, I like this movie for what it is, but I wish it was more.

Could not get into this version. The head Vamp was good and the costumes were I think in compliance with the period but winona ryder just killed this movie ( she looked bored) like she really did not want to play this role.

A legend of a film, that perfectly captures Dracula, done by the legendary Francis Ford Coppola as director, with two legends as leading Gary Oldman, and Anthony Hopkins with a young Keanu. A perfect storyline, soundtrack, cast and action, just a masterpiece of a film, and when you add Gary Oldman, it seals it. Perfectly captures the novel to the best of its ability, while leaving us with an unforgettable film. Sad, they don't make movies like this anymore, Ahead of it's time, and aged so well.
