In the first Underworld Selene talked about Kraven faking Luciens death and setting the great blaze and when viktor made her a vampire dont you think we should get to see how that really panned out lol x there should be a tone of werewolves there then lol x they have to use SHANE BROLLY who played him other wise they shouldent bother lol x

Seriously, I love Underworld, but this review just made me laugh so hard :D:D And itÂ´s right in few things. And from my point of view, this was the worst part of Underworld. Some would say it was the best, and some would say itÂ´s because Michael wasnÂ´t in it, but for me it was the worst BECAUSE he wasnÂ´t in it. Well… he was… or wasnÂ´t? What the hell? It was really messy. Anyway, IÂ´m looking forward to nr.5, and I hope Speedman will make up his mind and play his damned character. (sorry for any mistakes, english is not my mother language..)

Could not be more wrong! This site needs a new reviewer. I bet your a twilight fan!

Terrible review, and completely absurd. How does a critic complain about both a lack of character development, and then go on to laud the film's short running time? Make up your mind.

And FYI they WILL make a UW 5. I guess the name is long but that's ok. I bet everyone a hundred, no a million bucks that they will criticize if its bad, or praise it like hell if its good. '–_–
There shouldnt even be any critics. Sorry excuse for a human being…

Like srsly? WTF is facking wrong with these critics? Its not like YOU can make a movie. But really, UW 4 was quite amazing, and for those people who said "Why is she fighting AGAINST HUMANS?!?!" well for godness sake she had to! I mean, think about it. Humans took her hostage. They froze her in a tube of some sort. They kept her for 12 frikkin years! AND THEY FAKING took hostage of her family! If you wanna say something like that do it to TWILIGHT!

Ok first off i wanna say WTF is up with critics now a days does the movie have to be bored as fuck for it to have a good rating exp: (A Dangerous Method) that movie was so fuckin boring i almost had a mental break and decide to hunt down every one who took a part in it . Never the less we here critics say "Ravishing and Superbly done!" What was done besides some boney ass retarded nympho chick getting screwed by an Adolf Hitler look-a-like? I couldve seen that in porn. Therfore fuck you critcs i liked Underworld 4 and the rest ofem too. It was a little short but still it wasnt some aristocrat bullsit bout tee and crumpets.

Underworld junkie here. Have to say not so much. Scott made the Michael role and its been cut down to almost nothing. Saw awakening and will be the last one. Hybrid was what kept me buy like the part I am slowly being pushed out of scene. 1 and 2 where the best ones. Now like a washed up band still trying to push it. FYI my wife and I where the only 2 in theater if that says anything

Well, you'd be surprised but people actually do ask where's Michael (go see comments on trailer on youtube). I also think he's an important element to the story, you can't just lose one of the two main characters. But, I def agree with "the characterization is ludicrously thin" part, the lines that Theo James says are so corny that you don't even care when he dies. But it's Underworld, Kate's in PVC, action scenes are amusing enough so people will watch it (including me). And I'll even watch "Underworld 5: Dawn of the Rise of the Evolution of the Planet of the Hybridsâ if they go back to the roots (which means Michael back).

Well I enjoyed it, a nice little bit of escapism . Isn't it strange..have a look on flixster, you will notice that every time the critics slate a film and give it a low rating, us "normal " people love it and give it high ratings ! Hmmmm says something about critics doesn't it.

i liked the movie, even tho speedman wasnt in it, as far as his acting in the previous films go, i imagine i'd say his acting is alot better than your critical opinion, i do miss the Michael element i must admit, the movie was dark, yes, to short, yes, to much CGI…no more than any film i've seen in the past 3 years, your halfwits..but the truth is: they who cant write a book/script NOR act to save there ass become critic's, or post rude comments on these boards, ya'll dont like the movie's dont watch them, if your feeling pevish, go to the baby section at your local Walmart, pick up a pack of Binky's and suck your tiny minds out.

Yes, your little play on 'the rise of the planet of the apes' unfortunate title change is slightly ill-conceived as that was actually a great movie, but your point was well made. I do have to disagree about Michael though as I just don't buy Kate Beckinsdale as a supreme warrior, she's lacking in charisma, that hard edge and explosiveness that makes an action hero believable. One really needs a male action lead to sell it. Kate looks good but that's about it. Audiences, even female ones yearn for a strong male action lead to take the reins, the feminist/warrior prevalence in film roles seems very contrived and to a large extent it is, as feminism was actually promoted by the globalist authorities in order to undermine the family structure and deter women from marriage and traditional feminine, nurturing roles (reducing child bearing and making society divided and easier to manipulate) but that's a whole different issue. Otherwise your review was good, and I completely agree about the blueness.

Your title for the next Underworld is brilliant! Is there any way I can watch this on mute? I'll need extra, extra butter on my popcorn…..her catsuit brings out my inner Pee Wee Herman…..

I can't tell if this reviewer is being serious or not. I'm not even an Underworld fanboy but I watched this movie and thought it was crazy good. Didn't have the same cheesey-ish effects from previous ones and the action was non-stop. Honestly, it wasn't even a throwaway story either.

I think this guy just doesn't like Speedman is just, generally, a dick. Way to break the angry, hate everything movie reviewer stereotype buddy.

I think if they make another one they need to go back to the premise of the original one, Awakenings kind of Sucked because they relied to much on CG werewolves, and the one that hulled out was really silly. They need actors in the werewolf suites that were originally desinged by Patrick Totopalios.

Sometimes it's embarassing being Canadian. It SO felt Cdn..the acting so muted. My gut told me this was a Canadian movie before I even looked it up.

This Movieseries is ten times better then the twilight series but dont get the respect and sucess of it…its a shame and the review too. The CGI fits so well never see its CGI unlike to Twilight where u can see anny CGI involvement.

Thanks for your review, it had me laughing hysterically — I enjoyed the lack of excessive language and wry humor. I love the first two movies (only seen and own one and two edited because back in the day that was still allowed), and although Michael could be considered a weak character I find a man that knows when to do what's in his best interest (i.e. duck down when Selene is shooting over his head) very refreshing. He knows its her show (figuratively and literally), and he trusts her enough to follow her lead. So maybe I'll watch it sometime, or maybe I'll wait until Scott Speedman comes back. Because let's face it: one of the reasons we love Selene is because she isn't an ice queen and loves Michael purely for being himself even when himself can only growl in hybrid form (gotta admit that there are downsides to these things). I wouldn't dare say Selene's on par with Ripley but she's at least a female character who steals the show without any of the usual indecisive/lost of innocence moments that could inspire a montage. Either way, you answered my question (where's Michael!?) so if I do watch it I won't be disappointed and can just enjoy the ride of mother-daughter attack duo.
Thanks again for making it a fun read, I'm going to share it with friends. 🙂

i actually thought it was an interesting twist with keeping michael out of this one. for most of the film your led to believe michael was dead, with selene being subject 1 and eve being subject 2. who would even consider a subject 0? a good way to bring in a new character (eve), without overshadowing her powers with both selene AND michael. definitely think #5 could be the best in the series, considering how powerful we know michael to be, how strong selene became after drinking alexander's blood, and how powerful eve is. thats a team i wouldnt wanna come across in a dark alley

who is this chick? UA was pretty awesome I thought. Must be an overweight, sweat-pants-wearing, slob of a woman that's so jealous of kate beckinsale, she has nothing else to do but trash her movies. The film made over 150 million world wide, its obviously not a B movie, and the series as a whole has banked over 450 million, with only 177 million budget over 4 movies. i can't even believe i read this whole article. Underworld rules, can't wait for Michael to come back
