Trinity finds Blade (Wesley Snipes) wanted for murder by the FBI and just about everyone else as the underworld of vampires that rules the city tries to do away with their greatest adversary. In order too be rid of Blade for good Danica Talos (Parker Posey) resurrects the first of her kind Drake (Dominic Purcell) to not only kill Blade for good but to usher their kind into a future where their will be no more need of the human disease. After his mentor Whistler (Kris Kristofferson) is killed, Blade finds himself allied with the Nightstalkers lead by Whistler’s daughter Abigail (Jessica Biel) and Hannibal King (Ryan Reynolds) to help him rid the world of vampires once and for all.

Bringing back the king of vampires Dracula as the new christened “Drake” is a bold move considering how over used the character has been in recent years, but since Blade fought the character many times in the comic book it makes for a nice reference as does bringing in the Nightstalkers.

Although Goyer’s film does not have the cinematic flair and style of Stephen Norrington’s original nor the horrifying atmosphere of Guillermo del Toro’s sequel, Trinity does have a sense of humor that never takes away from the story courtesy of Reynolds who holds his own throughout. Some may view the addition of the humor as a step down for the franchise but in my opinion since none of the humor comes from the Blade character but is a trait of the King character Blade is never compromised. It’s even a running joke how much Blade hates King especially when his jokes are at the expense of Blade himself. Trinity was not a well received film on many levels but it should deter from the enjoyment of this entertaining film.
