Official plot

My opinion

Of all four movies of the franchise this one is the weakest one. It doesn’t really gives closure to the story when is supposed to since is the last one. It serves the purpose of entertaining, especially kids who are the target audience. But for the adult fans this one will feel as an unnecessary sequel. I would have done another plot and not over doing the same concept of the first movies again. Even the relationship between Dracula and Ericka would have been a more interesting topic.

The biggest downside for me on this film is how annoying Johnny became. He doesn’t understand what boundaries are or when is not his place. Also, making Dracula as a selfish character all the time is none sense. Four movies later he should have a better character development. I expected a lot from this movie, but it didn’t came to my expectations.
