10. Blade II (2002)
I’m that guy. The guy who doesn’t adore Blade II. I wrote about it in depth a few years ago but the simple fact is that while it’s a very action heavy sequel, there’s nothing overtly interesting or endearing about it. It’s Wesley Snipes and an excellent supporting cast using cool weapons to filet vampires for a few hours. Which is admittedly awesome. And the film’s success elevated del Toro’s star and let him move onto other things. But in terms of just overall quality of film, it’s on the lower part of the list. Fun, worth watching, but lower-level del Toro in comparison to the rest.
