Just saw Underworld..my rating inside
2004-01-27, 11:43 AM #1
Well, I just saw it. I didn't want to pay to see it because I feared it would suck major portions of the rectal quadrant. So, I borrowed it from my brother. Needless to say, I was astonished. I thought it was a very good movie and recommend it to vampire and werewolf lovers everywhere. It got a 9 out of 10 for good story and plot twists. A 7 on special effects and action because of the repeated werewolfs climbing on walls stuff. Got old. What did you guys think?

I loved it, and look forward to any sequel they may make.

It was a good action film, weak plot I thought. "Lets jump from some high places, and watch my trench flutter under me, then I can kill stuff, and then kill more stuff in slow motion...then lets kill more..wait..stop..we need plot...umm..I am a vampire...I kill wearwolfs and stuff...this guy is like not really a guy and stuff..okay so lets have more more shots on my trench, k?"

I loved it, but hated the way the werewolves looked while walking on the walls and ceillings. And they were way too slow.. they seemed like spiders. Wolves should be fast and agile.

Hmmm, interesting. This wasn't a movie I was particularly interested in (I sort of assumed it was going to suck...) But after hearing about everybody's enjoyment of it, it sounds like I might have to change my mind [http://forums.massassi.net/html/tongue.gif]

A quick question though: how did it compare to say... Blade? Because I didn't like Blade a whole lot... I thought it was kindof cheesy. And this movie looked a lot like it to me.

The best part in Blade was the opening nightclub scene. Can you say "Senseless killing" ?

It's much less cheesy than blade was.

Underworld is one of the best worst actio movies ever. When the guy at the end gets his head sliced in half...priceless.

Ya, I saw Underworld like a week ago. In my opinion an awesome. The battle scenes rocked only problem I had was endless clips. THey reloaded like once in the entire movie, esp the part where she is shooting at the ground all around here, can we say infinite ammo enabled?

Heh, you haven't seen senseless killing until you've seen the Kenshin OVA's. I think Is will back me up on this [http://forums.massassi.net/html/biggrin.gif]

But you don't see them die. You don't see them fall to pieces and squirm in a pool of their own blood, crying out in pain.

I rented it a couple weeks ago, and I was pleasantly surprised. The only thing I didn't like was the hybrid. The guy looks like a demented Hulk. Which, in this case, is not a good thing.

i'm not sure you can say Kenshin was senseless killing... i mean, it supported the plot. (when you're an assassin you're going to kill, heh)

but yeah, nothing can compare with the amount of deaths in Kenshin OAVs [http://forums.massassi.net/html/wink.gif]

anyway, i've not seen Underworld yet but i'll probably go rent it sometime soon... but yeah, the trailers make it look like a new Blade and well, Blade was corny at best.

The one thing I didn't like about Underworld was how they made the Vampires look like such pansies. The werewolves were stronger and faster, and the Vampires had to rely on weapons.
