The plot is decent enough with Lucian trying to get out of his slavery under Viktor. However, the film never tries to challenge or play with the plot to make it more intriguing other than a certain character's death. The film's CGI though couldn't be worse as it was so obvious to how the budget of the film was handled. The acting is average with Michael Sheen being the only real standout and Bill Nighy being an annoying enemy throughout. I'll give the other two films a try later on but I'm a bit cautious.

How can any geek be so utterly oblivious to be able to create such monstrosity again and again.
How can any geek be so utterly hooked to be able to watch each coming monstrosity.

Pretty brutal aswell, better than the 1st Underworld film, probably on the same level as the 2nd one.Much better than Twilight, mainly cos these Vamipres actually act like Vampires and suck suckaz bloodz!

there are two colors in this movie. black and light black.

1st one was cool, the 2nd one had enough story but lacked action and a stronger plot. Though i liked the actress, suited the role. Rhona mitra needs to be seen to be believed she can do better. Let's see.

Loved it, Vampire movie!!

The film tends to forget that these are supernatural creatures (it's not scary at all), and it quickly turns into a pretty standard-issue "revolt of the slaves" action picture (with very poor action scenes).

. . .a prequel that discards Beckinsale's character altogether (all the better to keep the budget down) while providing an origin story chock-full of the kind of ponderously uninteresting backstory that practically no one was clamoring for.

Tatopoulos has trimmed the fat for a more-satisfying bloodsucker brawl than we have any right to hope for in a January release.

Superfluous yet modestly entertaining thanks to Nighy and the franchise's blend of camp and visually diverting mayhem.

derivative and silly, and still inescapably inessential. But on a cold day in late January, it's a lot of fun
