We saw UNDERWORLD: EVOLUTION saturday night. This will be a quick review as I'm just too damn tired and unmovitated this monday.First off, I really liked Underworld 1. It was a very low-budget comic-style movie of Modern Day Werewolves Vs Vampires. Most people either loved it or hated it.
If you didn't like the first one, don't see the 2nd.
Overall, the movie is pretty bad. However, there's alot of cool fun stuff in there; more good than bad, element wise. The first 15minutes is freaking awesome; ancient vampires in battle armor battling werewolves in the snow. That was worth the price of admission. The first 1/4 of the movie is pretty good. The 2nd 1/4 drops down a peg at the weird awkward soft-core porn scene. Whuh??? At the midway point of the film, it begins to drop down in quality where the plot starts to wobble. The last 1/4 of the movie, the train wrecks and there are no survivors. Seriously, the ending they totally blow it and I was laughing my ass off where I should have been going "Fuk yeh!!!!". Oh well.Worth a rental, possibly a matinee viewing. But know going in its not as solid as the first one and in the end, the movie is just a fun, bad entertaining ride. Although, Jason thought it was "on par with Van Helsing". No way, not nearly THAT bad.
I give it 2-1/4 Lil Jimmys, out of 5.

I haven't seen either movies.
I got a beef with rating systems and I'm about to SMASH you some with my anger! I've had a crappy day.
So, anyways - What's the point of havign a 5 point rating system if you're going to give 1/4 & 1/2 points out? You might as well have a 10 point system! or a 20 point system!
STICK TO YOUR GUNS, MAN!
I will be better able to make sense of your ratings AND believe your ratings if you can COMMIT to an integer or whole number or whatever... NO MORE FRACTIONS!
And you're not the only one doing this... all kinds of people can't stick to their own designated numbering system of rating movies!
Bah! it doesn't really matter.
What matters is - THE SCRIBE! Rock on with your poetic self!
Why should I submit myself and my ratings to Society's close minded, American Education "fractions are hard" mentality. Why be normal? Besides, that's the joke....
"I give it 2-1/32 stars". It's supposed to be semi-random number, to keep ya on your toes.
Sorry you're having a crappy day.
!!!!!?????
hahahahahahahha!
The "soft core porn scene" was more like them making love.
Hahahaha! Ok.
Then shoot it in a way that comes across as "making love". Not a gratuitous sex scene. It's called proper filmmaking and storytelling.
Not getting teenagers off.
