Personally, i thought this movie could have been much better, as do the majority of people who commented here, but basically, for what it's worth it was a good action flick.
I had some plot troubles.
*Here be spoliers*
Such as why didn't the wolves use the UV bullets more often? You never see them get used, only see them put into the guns. Also, the vampires themselves reminded me of decandant children who's parents are away for the weekend and they're throwing a goth party... Gee, that's a sight to inspire terror.
The acting of the hero(?) Was good, and i'm not talking about Selene, i'm talking about Micheal, i think this was his first movie? But it was good, and in regards to the main comment about this movie, LICHEN are moss, and Lychan are not. Put's the movie in a completely wrong state of mind for people who going to see this.
If you're going to see this movie, then don't expect lots of deep introspective scenes, accept it for what it is. A hollywoods director chance to make money by cashing in on the Matrix and Blade, after all, this movie is little more than a mixture of them both surely.
There were a few problems in the beginning, i firstly thought "Bland bland bland" and then started to like it. I loved the wolves, thought they were interesting, and the directors even tried to make the vampires more human by *only* drinking Animal blood, but then again, guess that didn't work in the case of Selene's family huh? I'm guessing with all the effects from the wolves the directors didn't have much money left over to change the vampires! But it was a good change, they at least got the teeth right...
But in general, i liked the story. It could have been SOOOO much better, but it was a good story line i think, secondly, i think the acting, while slightly over done in several cases *coughVICTORcough* it was good. The main characters were good and convinced me that they earned their salary, considering the story they had to deal with they should off. And finally, all that science stuff, call me a skeptic but tracing a pure family line from over 1400 YEARS ago? Slightly hard.
But i enjoyed it, would recommend it to those kids who have goth inspirations, and more importantly, would tell them not to expect the matrix with fangs, or blade with bullet time. It tries to be one or the other, but it doesn't quite meet it...
I liked it, shame that's as far as my emotions strech for it. Would be interesting to see how Underworld2 comes out and Micheal fully in his power...

I watched this show with growing horror, the more and more i watched it the more i wanted to turn it off and put on something where it doesn't depict Gay lifestyle as hopeless, and that doesn't show that if the str8 women perserves then she shall recieve the holy grail of marriage and children, this series left me thinking "What the F***"
One of my major complaints is that now you can just hear the thoughts churning in every other gay parents head thinking "Ohhh, that could be our son!" Don't think so! I had nothing against the acting, nor the way the story was presented, i just didn't like the story itself. The idea that a gay man can go str8, and then leave it all behind while his gay friends are turning into old men and still shagging whatever it is they can, is horribly depressing.
I watched this with friends, they both liked it while i could utter what i thought was wrong with it, a gay man, shagging a str8 women in a train? And then he's completely horrible to her afterwards so Christ knows what happens next!
Most of my complaints with this series is that basically it is everything which most gay guys dont' want their parents seeing, we do not want our parents thinking that it just takes "the right girl" to snap us out of being "gay". Apparently it was written, or based on some guy and girl that the writer knew, well... Are you sure he was totally gay in the frist place? Most gay men consider women fun playful things, but never would consider sex with them EVER.
I don't like this series, i personally think that it should have never been made, but, i can't find a fault with the actors, their acting or the way the story is portrayed, it's a nice piece of work, it's just a terrible shame the story has to be about something which makes my blood want to boil.

I didn't like this movie one bit, wait a second, i tell a lie, i liked it for its comedy vaue. I liked the fact that it was TERRIBLE!
There was nothing brilliant about this movie, if anything i just wanted to turn it off and go back to sleep, but there was something so terrible about it i just couldn't help but watch!!!
The storyline is rather crap, but i'm not sure if a dodgy paradox is the correct word. There IS a possiblity that more than one "tau" line can exist therefore meaning the A.P.E.X units from one time-line could be sent to another since both "tau" lines could exist. Its all very complex and i don't thing the film producers actually understand this.
They don't seem to understand that if the different timelines were to remain seperate and at the same time they would interact, somebody in the first timeline would still be able to do something about the units going back! They wouldn't have been sucked into the other world like that since some OTHER people (duplicates) would have been created in the second time line! And why would the people in the first timeline shrink away into nothing if another timeline was created!! Its all very odd.
The A.P.E.X units, were very dodgy, i didn't like the fact that they looked like simple bits of plastic thrown on together with some sticky tape keeping all the bits together!
The acting was below anything i've ever seen before, i didn't like most of the soliders, and the scene in which the two soliders (the big black dude and the small white one) have a bloody conversation in the middle of a battle with shots going on in the background!? ARGH! LOL
Don't watch this unless drunk, stoned or just plain bored. Its something that you wouldn't watch unless u've got nothing else to watch, i wouldn't recommend it otherwise...
