~ An Immortal Battle for Supremacy ~

Advantages: Brilliant scenery, Great action, good characters
Disadvantages: Could have more SP/FX

...Supremacy ~ Underworld I first saw the film when I rented it from the local video shop and thought it was brilliant. The eerie pictures and captivating cover instantly drew me toward it. I had seen adverts and trailers when it arrived at the cinema and waited until it was released as everyone knows the price of cinema tickets are quite steep so I don?t tend to go much unless I really want to see something. The plot sounded good and I love vampire ...
...Blood Diamond and the other Underworld films where his part grows. Viktor- Bill Nighly Viktor is the Lord of the vampires who is raised by Selene to help win this war. After being woken early and not being impressed with her behaviour he seeks to rule the vampires into victory. He is a strong minded leader who is hard-heartened but seems to have a soft spot for Selene. Bill Nighly is a well known actor and I didn?t know he was in it until I saw ...

Sequel to the first but a good sequel.

Advantages: Better than the original movie,unique story line
Disadvantages: A bit long, unrealistic in some places.

As far as sequels go its ok but if you haven't seen the first one you cant really catch up with what is happening. The story line is a good follow on to the first movie and the main characters are the same. Im not going to go into the plot too much as i dont want to ruin the movie for those who have not seen it. There are lots of action seens with lots of blood and its more of a sci fi movie as its about vampires and wear wolfs. If you liked the ...
...better than the first one. But if sci fi is not what you like then you wont enjoy watching this. The story line is unique as there are not many movies out there about vampires and wear wolfs and a so called founder of all humans which occur in this movie, ...

Dracula Versus Wolfman? Look no further

Advantages: Both films in one
Disadvantages: None as far as i am concerned

...Well, as far as underworld was concerned, the vampires would win with their hands tied behind their back, blindfolded and having been bled half to death. Underworld shows the ultimate battle between the Vampires and the Lycan; Werewolves who can choose to turn into their wolf forms at will. The battle has been fought for centuries, the Vampires residing in an old mansion house, the Lycans choosing to stay in the sewers and underground. Underworld ...

Disk 2 : The Making of underworld :Interviews with soem of the cast and crew showing yo uhow parts of the movie was ...

Vampires and werewolfs a bit different

Advantages: whether you like vampires or werewolfs you will like this movie
Disadvantages: It takes a while to get into the movie plot

This is a film i own and like this film as its different from your traditional of either films but fits nicely together. I think the story was put together quite cleverley because of incorporating the link between werewolf and vampire and the history behind them. This films shows a worlds gritty underbelly of the battles that go on to see which is superior werewolf or vampire as it is known years and years ago vampires ruled and werewolfs were their ...
...in love with a vampire daughter of the reigning vampire at that time as there are three of them. Well it was forbidden for either to be a couple so the head vampire had his daughter killed in a dungeon being exposed to sunlight. As this was happening her partner the werewolf turned from human into wolf but could not save her so vowed to kill all vampires for his loss. With a little help from a mutual vampire working both sides they tried to find ...

Romeo and Juliet.. with sharp, pointy teeth

Advantages: Visually striking in place, nice buff bodies.. if you like that sort of thing
Disadvantages: Little of interest to the uninititated

...its opening weekend and gave Twilight fans their latest fix of Bella, Edward, Jacob et al. I was dragged along on opening day, after my girlfriend had made herself watch Transporter 3, it was the least that I could do in return. I’m not the best qualified to comment on this film, having not read the series of books it is based on. Still, from a layman’s perspective (and Twilight really does seem to have reached cult status) I feel I can comment ...
...moments. Buuut… The Twilight unititiated will pick this film to pieces. Whilst the fans pick over which plot developments have been omitted or drool over Jacob and his other muscle beach buddies, the neutral viewer will be less than impressed. Whereas Mr Muscle has a certain amount of charm (and the most hypnotic white teeth) the other cast members make hold minimal thrall over the audience. Bella has no ambition and seemingly no interest outside ...
