Underworld: Evolution

With the exposure of well-kept secrets and the tough resolve of one betrayed Vampire warrior, a centuries-long struggle between vicious predators has reached new heights of fierceness. But it's one Immortal's insatiable lust for power that leads to disturbing new disclosures about the origins of the feud between the Vampires and the Lycans.

Let's be honest, if you are looking for a thoughtful, deep movie that makes you think for days afterward, Underworld:Evolution is not your movie. If you like more of what the first movie offers, the sequel will not disappoint. The closest approximation to this movie would be any of the Blade sequels. This movie is simply fast violence with a hint of a love story thrown in. Kate Beckinsale does fine as Selene.

Typical R-rated fare. Plenty of violence and gore as well as some nudity thrown into this one. Michael and Selene are shown in a fairly graphic sex scene.

There's not much to this review because there is not much to this movie. It seems to pride itself on being a popcorn movie with little to no substance with the redeeming factor of never being slow. As a pure action movie, it's fine. As anything else, it's worthless.
