I will forever be confused as to why the Metascore on this film is the lowest of any of the Underworld movies. Let's be honest, nobody is going into these films with the possible expectation of an Oscar nomination. You either play this movie because A) you like Vampires and/or Werewolves or B) (and the most obvious reason) Kate Beckinsale.
In my opinion this is the best installment in the Underworld franchise (I have yet to see Blood Wars but from what I've heard that wont be a contender). I think this is the best because it has everything that people should be watching this movie for, in my opinion. Good action, surprisingly good CG for a 2006 film fantasy thriller with a $50,000,000 budget (which seems like a lot until you realize that Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter had a $69,000,000 budget in 2012 and was less than stellar...), lots of Kate Beckinsale from lots of great angles, and involvement from each angle of the Vampire/Lycan story.
So I end with this.. if you're going into this expecting stellar acting, no plot holes, and no desire to see mostly biting, blood, death, then don't see this. If you're going into this having seen any other Underworld movies and wanting more of a very attractive British actress in tight black leather killing werewolves (among other things)... then I am confident that you will enjoy this second installment more than any of the others.
7/10, hope this helps the uncertain viewer!
