Why would Tom Cruise be playing Lestat, a gaunt, suave European vampire with a taste for young men? Because a big movie star can do whatever he wants.

The leading performances, if acceptable, are not everything they needed to be to fully flesh out these elegant immortals.
Todd McCarthy, Variety

The major problem lies with Rice's own script, which is dramatically repetitive and philosophically banal.

Interview with the Vampire promises a constantly surprising vampire story, and it keeps that promise.
