J. R. Jones
This is a garbage heap of weak quips, delivered by an assortment of pretty boys and girls and amped up with some cheesy moments of animal cruelty.
Dennis Harvey
Not only plays like the crassest possible mashup of "Harry Potter" and "Twilight" elements, but seems designed to make those franchises look like eternal monuments of world culture by comparison.
Peter Keough
This attempt to capture the magic of the "Twilight" and "Harry Potter" franchises tries too hard to pack all the backstory and borrowings into one film.
Manohla Dargis
[Mr. Waters] doesn't seem especially interested in the supernatural parts of "Vampire Academy," and he clearly didn't have the budget to make what little hocus-pocus there is magical.
Todd Gilchrist
Ultimately more "Meaningless" than "Mean Girls," "Vampire Academy" is a busy, overcomplicated empowerment fantasy with more hormones than brain cells.
Stephanie Merry
The only thing that distinguishes this teen-magnet wannabe from its predecessors is how lazily it appears to have been slapped together.

So stupid its good! Wow! Wow! Lol this movie is good! I'm a big vampire movie fan and this is not the best vampire movie but it gets 5 stars. I read a couple of the comments and I see why people would say its awful and cheesy. But I think that what makes it good Its something different I get tried of seeing the same concept in vampire movies and this is something different no I haven't read the book but I see now I would love the book. Its one of them movies like I said is different ain't y'all tried of seeing same thing?

Disappointed Thought I'd never say this about a movie based on teenagers, but there was too little drama. Snarky comments? Check. But no honest emotion. No character development. No chemistry. I would not pay to see a sequel. With numerous books in the hit YA book series, whoever cast the one dimensional characters should be fired over the loss of future film revenue. If another director would completely recast and give it a darker twist with believable teenage angst, then I might be tempted to revisit it.
Amazing movie This is my favorite movie ever, I love the plot twists, and the acting, especially of the woman who plays Rose Hatheway. I honestly can not even understand why others are saying this is terrible; I believe this is MUCH better than the twilight crap others are obsessing over. :/ Basically, I highly suggest you watch this great movie. :)

A fun popcorn flick I enjoyed this movie more than I expected. This is definitely a movie for fans of YA books (which I believe is the target audience for the books.) The two female main characters were interesting and fun and fairly realistic for teenagers. The vampire fights & hints of background lore made me want to know more. I actually picked up the ebook on sale after finishing the movie hoping it would expand upon things. So if you're looking for a goofy, yet fun movie give this one a try! You might be surprised.

All the Haters The marketing on this film may have missed the mark but it grabbed my attention enough to read the books (which I have picked up MANY times in the store and put back down). I'm OBSESSED with this series now. The writing is amazing, witty and YA but not too unbelievable. I love it. And this movie definitely captures the essence of Richelle's characters.

My new favorite series! !! I honestly thought that this movie was going to be a total fail because of the trailer, BUT omg I was so wrong. I was quick to judge a book by its cover. This movie was very interesting and had a good movie plot. Yea the movie was a low budget film but I have faith that it will improve when the other movies come out. Can't wait till the next one fingers crossed! ! :)

Witty and Brilliant To start, I am a huge fan of the books. I read them in 9th grade with my friends. We were in love with the originality of the stories and how realistic and relatable the characters were. Rose's smart mouth, Lissa's vulnerability, Dimitri's swagger. We couldn't put them down! So, of course, when I heard it was going to be a movie, I freaked. And it did not disappoint! VA was funny, romantic, - in a sexually frustrating, odd way - and original. I'M PRAYING FOR THE SEQUELS! Please raise enough money for them!
Déjà Thompson This movie vampire academy was a fun film that was funny, romantic, and it had action. So I think that this movie deserves a 5 star rating because it is a really amazing film that I think you will love. This movie is family friendly, my family loved it so yours will too. When my family watched we had laughs, crys, and we were curious, because at the most terrific times cliffhangers would make you wait to figure out the mysteries that this movie has. So once again I give this movie a 5 star rating . I think that this was a great film and an amazing book, so I hope everyone had the experience I did watching Vampire Acadamy because it is truly an amazing and a terrific film that your whole family will love.!!
Horrible I watched this because I was considering reading the books. This movie is the so stupid, it was a complete waste of 2 hours that I can never get back. I even fell asleep at one point because it was so boring! Maybe the books are better, I know Hollywood ruins any book they make into a movie. Not motivated to read the series after watching this...

Amazing!! Loved this movie!!! A lot of people gave this low ratings and I honestly think it is because they haven't read the books and do not understand the story line enough to enjoy the excitement of this movie. I think it as really great and I cannot wait until the sequel comes out! :D Frostbite is going to be a good one. ;D
...Not so good Did not do the book justice...Rose's character was less intimidating in this than the book, actually all the characters were wronged... Sorry but I wouldn't want to see the next part on movie unless they get the characters right... Very very very disappointed about the Demetri character... Blah! (Only 1 star because I am required...)
