Vamps
Vampire romantic-comedy from the director of Clueless, starring Alicia Silverstone and Krysten Ritter as modern-day blood suckers looking for love in New York City.
Goody (Silverstone) and Stacy (Ritter) keep their vampire-ness hidden, and spend their time addicted to the night life, clubbing and hooking up. But even with lifetimes of dating experience behind them, the duo realise they still have a lot to learn about love when Stacy unexpectedly falls for the son of a vampire hunter, and Goody runs into the man of her dreams from decades earlier. With their destinies at stake, the girls are faced with a difficult choice; give up their eternal youth for a chance at love, or continue to live their uncomplicated fabulously single lives forever.

The New York Times
Aging is probably the real theme here, but it's approached sidelong and has no punch. Still, only the nostalgia has any real conviction.

Los Angeles Times
Mostly a misfire, but Heckerling still shows enough flashes of wit and wisdom that she remains hard to entirely dismiss.

This shambling little comedy never finds a consistent groove, but it's eager to please, and has the ancient gags to do it.
