This show has a few clichés and a few over the top, Dawson's Creek-like moments (a 16-year-old talking about way back when life made sense?), but overall it seems like a decent show. Most of the characters seem very real, and the story seemed to move along well in the pilot - ending with a good lesson in the end. I just hope every episode doesn't turn out to be life-altering like the first, that would just be too much drama for this vehicle. Jeremy Sumpter does an excellent job as a teenager with a passion for baseball, I believe a lot of us could relate to his awe and sometimes tunnel vision for the team that he always wanted to a part of.
Van Helsing was a decently entertaining movie. It does not start off too well, but improves once the action picks up a little bit. It does seem to use parts of other movies, but not necessarily monster movies as you would expect. I definitely noticed scene or line similarities with LOTR: The Fellowship of the Ring, The Fifth Element, and The Good, the Bad, & the Ugly among others. This is not a good thing. It's OK to pay homage to classic movies of the same genre, but to take from a spectrum of different ones does not help a movie.
A lot of eye-rolling scenes, but entertaining enough. 7/10
