The reviews for Renfield are in, and critics are mostly loving Nicolas Cage’s Dracula and the movie’s fun, genre-bending blood and gore.
Reviews for Renfield are in, and the movie's darkly comedic gore and Nicolas Cage's stylish new Dracula seem to have won over critics. Directed by Chris McKay and based on an original idea from Robert Kirkman , Universal's Renfield tells the story of Nicholas Hoult, Dracula's servant, who falls in love with a traffic cop, played by Awkwafina. His newfound love encourages him to stand up to his master and seek his freedom.
In the modern world, Hoult never goes for an imitation of original Renfield actor Dwight Frye so eschews the original character’s madness for more sadness and desperation. He’s a victim of abuse with no idea who to turn to, and that’s outside the fact that he’s lived for hundreds of years by providing victims for a literal vampire. “Renfield,” though, has no mystery, no poetry, no grandeur. It’s a scattershot lark jam-packed with “ideas,” none of which really take hold.
