Underworld: Evolution

Monday, February 6th, 2006

I watched this movie with two faces. It’s the best way to watch most movies. One the eagle eyed film critic (or as much as I can be of one) and the other face, a mindless Hollywood fan. It’s the only way to appreciate a Hollywood movie.

I was sitting in the cinema watching this movie and thinking, it’s just going to get torn apart by the critics. It did, 15% on Rotten Tomatoes, 7% from the major critics. Let me put that in perspective. Britney Spears’s Crossroads got 14%, 13% from the major critics.

That’s apauling. Why is it getting these ratings? Because from a true movie lover’s perspective, this movie really is awful. It reeks of gratuitous violence and the plot line is basically kill people, gratuitous sex scene, kill more people.

Let me stress this enough before I overuse the word - pretty much everything in this movie is unnecessary over-the-top gratuitous violence, sex and general Hollywood crap.

Now that I have got that out of the way let’s look at the good features from the mindless Hollywood fan. The violence is really graphic, lots and lots of people get killed and Kate Beckinsale is really hot!

Seriously, she wears a full body PVC suit with a corset and leather boots over the top. What more could a guy ask for?

If you didn’t see the first movie then you won’t really understand what is going on. Well I didn’t but I managed to figure through.

Bottom line is, if you like pretty mindless action movies then it’s a solid choice. But if you’re a girl, a movie lover, generally anyone who doesn’t have fanatical devotion to the first movie, you probably shouldn’t go see it.
