I saw it a couple of weeks ago.

It's not terrible, but it's not really all that good, either. I left the cinema with a resounding "meh".

The big problem was that it never really got started from its admittedly-quite-clever set-up - it just ambled along and didn't bother picking up. At all.

I pretty much agree with this. I felt the movie would've been much more interesting if they covered at least part of the transition from a Human-dominated society to a Vampire-dominated society.

I also did not like the way they handled the "solution" to the vampire's problem, it felt very rushed and didn't really fit with the apparent realism they were going for.
