Underworld: Rise of the Lycans

I hated the first two films. I thought they were trash. I'm still surprised that they not only made a third film but that it's a prequel AND it made it to the theaters.

The original cast is pretty much gone since it's a prequel aka saved some money. Oddly enough though the cast is rather good in this film. You don't often seen real acting in a vampire werewolf war film but of course it's not a typical film style I guess.

The special effects have also taken a few steps back, again a budgeting issue I'm sure. But still the film ran it's course quickly, I didn't whine or anything about anything in particular and the film just kind of exists. Is it better than the others? I'd say yes but that doesn't mean a whole lot coming from a hater of the others. Fans should get their thrills and plot hole fillings but anyone else should pass.

Movie - 2.5/5
