""The Underworld" is a poor vampire versus werewolf movie where a vampire warrior (Kate Beckinsale) teams with a human (Scott Speedman) who wants to end the war between vampires and werewolves which has been around for centuries. The only good thing about this movie is the dark style it is presented in. The sets and wardrobes are all dark colors, there is nothing bright and cheery in any part of the movie. The acting is, at best, fair. You really do not cheer or boo anybody in this movie. Except for maybe the fight near the end between the lead vampire and the human, who turns out to be a hybrid of a vampire-werewolf union. There is little to no action in this movie. Of what there is, it is nothing too exciting. The amount of blood is also pretty disappointing. Since the plot involves vampires, there should have been more blood than there is. You also get a feel that this movie steals from "The Matrix" movies -- right down to the clothing and the "agility" of the characters. "The Ma ... "

"The vampires of Stephanie Meyer’s Twilight novels are described as impossibly beautiful. But it’s one vampire, “Edward Cullen,” who is written as having such appealing details that it would seem impossible for a girl not to fall in love with him. In actuality, that’s what has happened to most females, young and old, who have read the books. And while his cinematic portrayer, Robert Pattinson, doesn’t quite resemble a marble statue of Adonis, the actor is still getting his fair share of seven-year-old suitors asking to be bitten. Cullen is hardly the first vampire to so strongly attract the hearts (and necks) of mortals. But what is it about the bloodsucking undead that turns us on so much? Is it truly their stone-white skin and chiseled features? Or perhaps it’s their ability to go all night long? Let us take a look at the many vampire love interests that literature and cinema have given us over the years in an attempt to find out their sexy secret. 1819: Lord Ruthven from The Vam ... "

"9:00 - Q: “Will William and Marcus be in this movie?” A: “Well, we talk about them. They won’t be actively part of the story, but they are the roots of it.” People are starting to get bored, and new folks are filing in. We keep getting asked, “Has the Pineapple Express part started yet?!” 8:58 - Rhona Mitra is going on and on about how strong her character Celine is. She’s been talking for quite awhile now, and someone shouts “YOU’RE HOT!” Rhona explains that she wears an extremely skimpy outfit in this movie, “I think you’ll all be satisfied… I know the crew were.” 8:55 - Bill Nighy is being praised for all of his work, including The Girl in the Cafe… nice! I sincerely suspect that hardly anyone in this massive hall has even seen that movie. If you haven’t, go out and rent it right now.” The little kid from earlier today is back… seriously, did Comic-Con hire this guy? He wants to know if the movie is all story, or all action, or a balance of both. Director Patrick Tatopoulos sai ... "

"Discussion of this summer’s heroine lack is in full throttle. Last friday, New York’s Vulture blog asked, “Where are the Roles for Superwomen?; Stu at Defamer jumped off from there, ultimately suggesting an X-Men spin-off for Ellen Page; John at The Movie Blog listed reasons “Why Most Female Lead Action Films Don’t Succeed” (shocker: men can’t identify with or believe in strong — and strong — female characters). Now, adding to the conversation in the least noble way possible, USA Weekend presents the appropriately titled “Girls Want to Have Fun, Too”, a cover story (with the least flattering photos I’ve ever seen) from its summer movie preview th "

"**** stars (out of 5) Directed By: Timur Bekmembetov Starring: Konstantin Khabensky, Vladamir Menshov & Valeri Zolotukhin Language: Russian with English subtitles Synopsis: Since the dawn of time, vampires, witches, and shape-shifters (known in this film as "others") have been fighting each other over mankind. The two groups are called the "light others" (the good) and the "dark others" (the evil). Thousands of years ago, the two sides called a truce. The primary condition of the truce: that every human must be free to choose between light and dark. The protectors of this truce are called Night Watch (light others) and Day Watch (dark other). They are constantly policing each other in search of violations of the truce. We enter this story in present day Moscow in the midst of a prophecy fulfillment. This film is the first part of a trilogy based on Sergei Lukyanenko's best selling novels: Night Watch, Day Watch and Dusk Watch. Review: Th ... "

"If you like vampire and werewolf movies, this is one of the best I have seen. Kate Beckinsale is absolutely one of the most stunning vampires I have ever seen. Great special effects, definitely kept me on the edge of my seat and, although I would never admit it, I did jump a few times. It is kind of like a werewolf and vampire Romeo and Juliette movie. Except now they bite. Excellent movie. Wish I could have seen this in the movie theatre. What's that? Underworld Evolution - the sequel? Hmmmm.... "

"By Tricia Olszewski Selene, Hollywood's latest female ass-kicker, seems a bit familiar. Raven-haired and British, she dresses in shiny black cat suits and is well-endowed in the weapons department. She takes easy command of the simple-minded men she must work with to save the world, petulantly explaining—though she really doesn't have time for this—how things need to be done. She fights with agility and grace, often in drippy subterranean environs, and when these sequences really get going, you might just think, This is the best Tomb Raider ever. It's not, of course. It's Underworld, a Gothic tale from first-time director Len Wiseman about vampires and werewolves and the love that's been long lost between them. Selene (Kate Beckinsale, Wiseman's fiancée) is not an adventuress but a vampiric "death dealer" charged with spotting and dispatching "Lycans." When, after one particularly messy battle, Selene notices that the Lycans she was after had been pursuing a hu ... "
