Editorial Review:

Amazon.com:
Blade meets The Crow and The Matrix in Underworld, a hybrid thriller that rewrites the rulebook on werewolves and vampires. It's a 'cuisinart' movie (blend a lot of familiar ideas and hope something interesting happens) in which immortal vampire 'death dealers' wage an ancient war against 'Lycans' (werewolves), who've got centuries of revenge--and some rather ambitious genetic experiments--on their lycanthropic agenda. Given his preoccupation with gloomy architecture (mostly filmed in Budapest, Hungary), frenetic mayhem and gothic costuming, it's no surprise that first-time director Len Wiseman gained experience in TV commercials and the art departments of Godzilla, Men in Black, and Independence Day. His work is all surface, no substance, filled with derivative, grand-scale action as conflicted vampire Selene (Kate Beckinsale, who later became engaged to Wiseman) struggles to rescue an ill-fated human (Scott Speedman) from Lycan transformation. It's great looking all the way, and a guaranteed treat for horror buffs, who will eagerly dissect its many strengths and weaknesses. --Jeff Shannon

Product Description:
ScreenGems Underworld (Blu-ray)
In the 'Underworld,' Vampires are a secret clan of modern aristocratic sophisticates whose mortal enemies are the Lycans (werewolves), a shrewd gang of street thugs who prowl the city's underbelly. Noone knows the origin of their bitter blood feud, but the balance of power between them turns even bloodier when a beautiful young Vampire warrior and a newly-turned Lycan witha mysterious past fall in love. Kate Beckinsale and Scott Speedman star in this modern-day, action-packed tale of ruthless intrigue and forbidden passion - all set against the dazzling backdrop of a timeless, Gothic metropolis.

Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great movie!!
Not my cup of tea, but my boyfriend loved it. Action and chicks in tight leather. He was in heaven...ha ha



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - A little bit more
DVD in good condition (oughta be; it's new), containing the film ordered (what a surprise), BUT did in fact include scenes I'd not previously seen and which helped clarify the plot just that bit more. Am well pleased.



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Documentary on the Lives of Ordinary Rats
Underworld is a sleek documentary on the plight of rats living inside a cave beneath Grand Central terminal in NYC, stated for demolition in 2006. Told with compassion and foresight, the filmmakers devote about 2 hours worth to the fringed little creatures, mostly told in flashbacks by a rat called "Sebastian" who smokes a pipe and spies on humans above in the city. I found it not only humanistic, because it advocates adopting stray rats, but also very entertaining and I had tears in my eyes near the end when I walked out of the theater and found myself surrounded by gerbils.



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Even worse than remembered.
So I vaguely remembered seeing Underworld, possibly even in the theaters when it first came out, yet didn't quite recall my final judgement of the film. Then came the glorious Blu-Ray release of the film, well HD viewers, don't waste your time or money. The film itself comes out still appearing too grainy in spots while in others is too dark. I remembered this about my original viewing of the movie and I will say that the HD quality improved it slightly. Foremost in my mind is the overall terrible movie that this is. Bad acting, bad scripting and convoluted plot don't help matters at all. Overall just skip this movie, it will not stand the test of time.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Worth it is an understatement!
The quality is top notch. I was extremely pleased to see that the video quality lived up to the reviews. I was a little worried about the unrated version just wondering how much footage would be extra and will that enhance or take away from the move. I love this movie so to get more insight into the story by getting to see more footage is very rewarding. There were a couple of parts that I could have done without but this one shows more story and a bit a skin. The former being very interesting to me because I really dig the story and this one definitely provides more insight to the characters themselves. I HIGHLY recommend this disc to anyone that's a fan of Underworld. This movie is why I have a blu ray player.
