Prequel to Underworld

Advantages: Good story
Disadvantages: Probably not as exciting as the previous two movies

...most entertaining one from the underworld series but rather serves the purpose of filling in gaps of the story from the first and second movie, especially on the origin of the war and the vampire council. The fighting scene maynot be as exciting/entertaining as Underworld and Underworld Evolution. There is also not a lof of special effects apart from the transformation of the werewolves but I think the main focus is really on the story and the details. ...
...I was a bit disappointed with the character of Sonja, I am not sure how to put it in words. I just feel she lacks something or the kind of attention Selene has on the previous two films. I can see that they have found someone who is kind of Selene look-alike but her character and other aspects are so different. However, she is supposed to be the character who inspires Viktor to create Selene but she is so much different to Selene. ...

Review of Underworld - Rise Of The Lycans

"Underworld - Rise Of The Lycans" A review of the movie(s)

Advantages: Great story, lots of questions answered and good special effects
Disadvantages: None that I can think of!

Underworld - Rise Of The Lycans is the missing piece to the fabulous story of the Death Dealers and Lycans. When the first movie came out, Underworld, it raised many unanswered questions but brought an epic and spectacular story into our midst. Underworld Evolution is the second film and carrys straight on after the first. It does answer more of our questions and digs the story a little bit further. However, Underworld - Rise Of The Lycans goes back, ...
...watching this film, you're sorted. Underworld - Rise Of The Lycans shows you what happened before the first two movies, before there were guns and explosives involved. It shows you where characters come from, and where relationships were formed. This is all helpful to understand the first two movies a lot clearer. In this movie, I extremely enjoyed it. After loving Underworld and Underworld Evolution, this was way better, and in my opinion, the ...
