Underworld (2003)
4/10
Nothing new (spoilers)
20 January 2004
Warning: Spoilers
We all knew that this movie would be using a lot of flavoring from both The Matrix & from Blade, but I didn't realize it was going to be using look-alikes from some rock bands and a real live version of Battle Angel Alita, so here's my review, and bare w/ me.

Vampires & Lycans (werewolves) are at war w/ each other over a reason, shrouded in mystery. The division of Vampires that we get to see is lead by Trent Reznor of Nine Inch Nails, & the primary warrior of his crew is Gally from the movie Battle Angel Alita. The Lycans are headed up by Rob Zombie. Rob Zombie is hunting after Scott Stapp, the lead singer of Christian Rock band Creed. Supposedly he's got a special blood type that is all but a myth.

Of course as luck has it, Gally falls for Scott Stapp and gets booted out of her club for conspiring w/ the enemy. This leads her into the typical superhero storyline of proving herself right and also getting to do the I-told-you-so thing when it all goes to crap for her home team.

The rest is about as typical and you already can guess the ending. On a plus side I do want to speak highly of the visual f/x, excellent for the viewer who needs to study that rather then the story.
