Advantages: Good cinematography Disadvantages: Perhaps would have made more sense if I'd seen the other two films..
...the third film in the Underworld series, which is a Vampire vs Lycans, which are a form of werewolf, the previous two films were ‘Underworld’ (2003) and ‘Underworld Evolution’ (2006). ‘Rise of the Lycans’ is the prequel to the two films.
