What to Know

Critics Consensus

Overblown in the best sense of the word, Francis Ford Coppola's vision of Bram Stoker's Dracula rescues the character from decades of campy interpretations -- and features some terrific performances to boot.

Bram Stoker's Dracula | Rotten Tomatoes (1) Jay Carr Boston Globe This Dracula is only eyeball-deep, a series of opulent sensory jolts, drained of real emotion; in effect, it's a two-hour trailer for a film that never arrives. Sep 26, 2024 Full Review Bram Stoker's Dracula | Rotten Tomatoes (2) Kenneth Turan Los Angeles Times No matter what else you do with it, a Dracula that cannot manage to be more scary than silly is as pitilessly doomed as that elegant old Transylvanian himself. Sep 26, 2024 Full Review Bram Stoker's Dracula | Rotten Tomatoes (3) Steven Rea Philadelphia Inquirer Truly, there is too much going on here, and the results are exhausting. At the same time, the film's very busyness is part of Dracula's undeniable charm. If there is glory in excess, Coppola's movie is glorious. Rated: 3/4 Sep 26, 2024 Full Review Bram Stoker's Dracula | Rotten Tomatoes (4) Carson Timar ClapperCast This film is an absolute work of art. From the production design to the costumes, this is a perfectly grand and lavish adaptation of the original story that captures the tragedy in this narrative so well! Sep 28, 2024 Full Review Bram Stoker's Dracula | Rotten Tomatoes (5) Stephen Hunter Baltimore Sun Opulent and lustrous, it never makes much sense at the character level, but glistens with such dark, carbuncular magnificence and is fueled by such an elixir of sexual yearning that I defy any manjack among you to deny its murky tidal pull. Rated: 3/4 Sep 26, 2024 Full Review Bram Stoker's Dracula | Rotten Tomatoes (6) Robert W. Butler Kansas City Star It's a major misstep for Coppola, who has lavished attention on an artsy presentational style but ignored the film's dramatic needs. This Dracula tries to be romantic and ends up being merely insipid. Rated: 2/4 Sep 26, 2024 Full Review Read all reviews

jazz Even 30 years after, best Dracula movie ever! Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/28/22 Full Review Jenn I love this movie so much! It’s the best Dracula movie. A tragic love story - a love across time. Gary Oldman is amazing. Great cast with the exception of Keanu Reeves he sucks. Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/28/22 Full Review Michelle A classic film on the big screen again. An experience not to miss. Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/24/22 Full Review Stefe D As somebody who read the book I appreciate the various nods to important details. However some of my favorite passages are not portrayed in the movie. Additionally, I do not appreciate the love story angle. I see how they needed a storyline to condense the many elements from the novel. All in all, a good watch and I will definitely rewatch it eventually. Rated 3.5/5 Stars • Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 10/27/24 Full Review Ian L The best Dracula---everyone else is wrong. Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/25/24 Full Review Spen B Looked fabulous... Great cast... Mediocre film. Van Helsing was comical and Keanu was appalling (as much as I love his other movies). Rated 2/5 Stars • Rated 2 out of 5 stars 10/15/24 Full Review Read all reviews
