This movie is really a disappointment for any Anne Rice fan, or anyone who expected a good scary movie when they saw all the advertisements.
Beware, they are misleading.
The most disappointing part was the way they excluded the main characters and then wrapped up the whole thing fairly quickly. Aaliyah didn't get much screen time which is a shame, but she was a very convincing queen of the damned. Her movements were fluid and her voice seemed perfect, kind of chilling.
Stuart Townsend was a good Lestat, his performance was convincing. This movie probably is not really worth bothering with and a waste of time except (oddly enough) I wouldn't mind seeing it a few more times.
It's a lot of fun to watch...the plot doesn't matter that much with the music...I don't know why but I loved the music and when Lestat became a rockstar...the best part in the whole movie was the rock concert, and all the special effects really liven up the film.
So if you aren't really in the mood to be scared, but just to enjoy yourself and watch a (kind of) okay movie that Queen of the Damned is perfect.
If I wanted to be realistic it probably only deserves * out of ***** but I give it ****
