Member Rating:  
Based on Bram Stoker's classic 1897 novel, this film from Francis Ford Coppola and screenwriter James Victor Hart offers a full-blooded portrait of the immortal Transylvanian vampire. The major departure from Stoker is one of motivation as Count Dracula (Gary Oldman) is motivated more by romance than by bloodlust. He punctures the necks as a means of avenging the death of his wife in the 15th century, and when he comes to London, it is specifically to meet heroine Mina Harker (Winona Ryder), the living image of his late wife (Ryder plays a dual role, as do several of her costars). Anthony Hopkins is obsessed vampire hunter Van Helsing, while Keanu Reeves takes on the role of Jonathan Harker, and Tom Waits plays bug-eating Renfield. Bram Stoker's Dracula was the winner of three Academy Awards. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

    Overall this is an entertaining and fairly well-acted movie, but it strays too much from Stoker's original work, considering the use of "Bram Stoker" in the title. While it basically stays true to the text of the work (with some embellishment), it inserts a fabricated and prolonged relationship between Mina and Dracula and creates a romantic motive that undermines Stoker's intent.

    With a nod to the silent film Nosferatu, the movie is more interesting than scary, combining all the myths and facts about Dracula and giving a plausible explanation for his turning "evil". Well done with some classic Coppola scenes, good acting by Oldman and Tom Waits is a riot. Got awards for best design and costume.
