highly underrated, often over-looked

When you ask someone to name the best movies to come out of the early-mid 90's, not many people would mention this movie. That's too bad.It isn't American Beauty deep, but the film presents real human emotions through the surreal... Full review

I am a vampire lover and this is the ultimate vampire movie (second only to "Bram Stoker's Dracula") consisting of the two sexiest male vampires ever created- Tom Cruise and Brad Pitt. I must admit at first I thought Tom... Full review
The film may not be 100% plot-hole-less (but neither is the Matrix, and many brilliant films), and the concept of Vampires might seem a little far-fetched (read on), but if you bear with the unavoidable facets of a movie dealing... Full review

I have a passion for films with dark settings. What's even better is when the film is not only dark and dismal but also deep and engrossing. With a combination of Anne Rice's script and Neil Jordan's direction, the overlooked... Full review
Every friend of stylish Gothic vampire stories should love this!

Mika Pykäläaho - imdb.com
Although Neil Jordan's "Interview with the vampire: The Vampire chronicles" definitely has its own devoted fans (7.0 out of 10 can't be a bad average...) it's still unfortunately maybe a slightly underrated movie - at least among professional critics. I... Full review
An entire hour is missing from the released version

Daniel Tucker Kamin - imdb.com
Neil Jordan who is masterful with small intimate films, served up scrambled eggs on this picture where budget was no object. There is an entire hour missing from all the released versions because in 1994 Geffen/Warner Bros. didn't believe a... Full review
Tom Cruise IS Lestat

I, like Anne Rice, was initially dismayed that Tom Cruise had been cast as Lestat. But when I saw the film, I had to admit that he absolutely nailed the role. I had always thought of Cruise as a pretty... Full review
Obviously misunderstood

Ken-4 - imdb.com
Someone said that this movie was too cerebral for horror fans who live for drivel like "From Dusk 'Till Dawn", and too much of a horror movie for people who look (or at least pretend to look) for meaning in... Full review

I thought it was lush, passionate, and incredibly well played. There were candid and disturbingly revealing interviews with other cast members including Banderas and Stephen Rea, which somewhat shattered the mystique of their characters in the film. ... Full Review
