Priest

THE movie Priest”, is a post thriller, is set in an alternate world one ravaged by centuries of war between man and vampires. The story revolves around a legendary Warrior Priest (Paul Bettany) from the last Vampire War who now lives in obscurity among the other downtrodden human inhabitants in walled-in dystopian cities ruled by the Church. When his niece (Lily Collins) is abducted by a murderous pack of vampires, Priest breaks his sacred vows to venture out on an obsessive quest to find her before they turn her into one of them. He is joined on his crusade by his niece’s boyfriend , a trigger-fingered young sheriff, and a former Warrior Priestess who possesses otherworldly fighting skills.

The plot is based on a cult graphic novel by Min-Wood Hyung, Priest is amalgamation of gothic vampire horror and some emotional drama, but the director could not handle the script well and made a good looking film in the start, a mediocre looking film in the end. Paul Bettany (Priest) is a warrior priest who had served the human race and the church during the war between vampires and humans, he served the humans when they were losing the battle and then he was made a warrior priest along with some more priests, they were invincible, they killed all the vampires and the city of humans remains in peace. But after the war they were forced to live like normal humans. This story is told in an animated form and it is quite good and quite childish too, because such narration is surely the thing of past, but then too it looked quite sensible.

The director seems to have forgotten that the audience today has seen so many Vampire movies, that they want a vampire movie to be different, like what ‘Day breakers’ was, something that is original. Now Priest is not heavily the same old school vampire movie, but yet it is so inspired from so many movies, when you go and watch the movie, you will feel like “I have seen this scene somewhere”. And the other crime apart from some cliché vampire tricks, 3-D, why make a good looking 2-D movie into a 3-D movie and also why make a dark looking movie even darker. You feel like “what is going on the screen, why can’t is see something.”
