Movie Review: Underworld (2003)

Now that I’ve finally seen both this and the original Resident Evil, I don’t think I’m going to get these two series mixed up. For the record this is a much better movie, and not just because Kate Beckinsale looks better in black leather than Milla Jovovich (opinion, yes).

This movie, while dumb action horror (perhaps my least favourite subgenre of horror), feels like it has a lot of thought put into it. There’s a mythology to the werewolves, and it certainly seems like something you can construct a series out of.

But at the end of the day, it still is a lot of pretty dumb action, most of which is pretty dated, but some of which is alright. The movie has a definite style, but it’s a style I’m just not personally into.

Rating: 5/10
