Daybreakers starts with an incredible premise—if vampirism starts spreading in a population, before long everyone will be vampires and who will they feed on then? And for kicks, it layers on a noir feel, which is like the bacon of movie motifs—it goes with everything!

And from that great start, the movie manages to squander every good idea and meanders around from pointless action sequence to makes-no-sense confrontations, until the final dramatic but-why-did-he? ending.
