Technics Battle For World Supremacy 2003 (DVD)

~ An Immortal Battle for Supremacy ~

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

~ An Immortal Battle for 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 movies so thought id give it a go. I have properly seen the film about four more times after renting it that first time and found I enjoyed it every time. I didn?t know any of the actors included and Len Wiseman was a new director to me. As the film as been played on television a number of times now I try to avoid seeing it too many times as it would properly ...

Review of Underworld (DVD)

An immortal battle for supremacy

Advantages: A good story line!
Disadvantages: Severe lack of DVD features.

Cusack in Serendipity. Now she's in a vampire movie? More will be explained... But first, in the usual fashion, the quotes from the critics: "Stunning" - DAILY STAR "Slick, sexy, enormous fun" - MAXIM "Stunning...superb special effects" - NEWS OF THE WORLD "Fantastic" - HOTDOG "Terrific action" - DAILY STAR Wow! These guys sure have a lot to say don't they! hehe....but I totally agree with their one-worded opinions! Now for the boring stuff, skip this paragraph if you want, this is just something I have to do... ***TECHNICAL STUFF*** This film has a 15 certificate. Obviously, being a vampire movie with bucket loads of blood, you can't expect this one to be a PG film. It has a running time of approximately 116 minutes, which is not bad in my opinion but it could have been longer. I bought my DVD copy from ...

Review of Underworld (DVD)

The Immortal Battle.. for Supremacy

Advantages: Action, looks good, interest plot with twists, extra features
Disadvantages: Lose two commentaries (compared to normal), perhaps too much gore (if possible)?

Plot.. Directed by Len Wiseman, Underworld is not your average vampire film. Meet an advanced form of werewolf, the lycans, who prowl below the city and their enemies, the vampires, living in highly sophisticated secrecy. Both of these races are interlocked in a century old battle for supremacy, which could only result in the eradication of the losing race. One thing seems to be uncertain to Selene, a vampire warrior - who exactly started the war? She was reared by the vampires, taught that the lycans killed her family, but is she seeking justice from the right place? The Vampire High Council believe there are only small numbers of lycans left, and refuse to believe Selene's discovery that there are far more, with a plot to awaken a new and invincible species, combining the strengths of both species, and the weaknesses of neither. This ...
