it was a passable moive, action was good, 'Stunning action packed fun: The Stupid Times' is the kinda crap your likely to here. I loved the ST, the composer embeded one of the first film tunes deep in a new one let it bubble up for a few seconds then fade away it was awesome, please note attention I was playing to subtle undertones in the films musical score, that's how unimpressed I was with the visual element.

The first half of the film is all 'OMG OMG OMG OMG William OMG OMG OMG' and he was such a fucking let down.

Again, WHAT FUCKING LOVE STORY!!!!!!!, wtf is with this movie? it gets hyped up as this Lycan/ Vampire love story, the chemistry between Michael and Selene is as dull as dishwasher. Admitedly it's abit more obivous cause they screw but apart from that it's barely noticable, I don't like gushy bullshit as much as the next guy but robot-mode is like the total wrong way to solve that.

Also the ending reminded me of Resident Evil cause they left massive fucking hints at a further movie, atleast I'd look forward to another RE flick. I hope to god he leaves it, Underworld was fresh and interesting twist on the Werewolf subculture and orgin without all the bullshit /cry I'm cursed story, that floods everything else.

Lucian and Victor MADE that first film a movie ... no-one stood out the like they did in this, the new characters sucked, William and Marcus despite the hyping where actually starved of development, sure people where talking about them but they were'nt getting to anything important, even now I have no fucking clue why Marcus was doing ANYTHING he did in the film .... he just goes walkies and starts fucking things up and you have to be like .. yeah okay ... I buy that, problem is I didn't

So Mik...does this make it worse than A werewolf in paris?

From a werewolf perspective it was shit. From a vampire movie perspective it's not the worse i've seen.

I talked about what i thought in lj but i cant be bothered copy pasting it.

American Werewolf in Paris was trying to be a humor/ horror without any of the class nor wit of the first first.


In the same respect Underworld 2 was trying to be the first but without the deep history and cool concepts.

so it's on par with the shittyness of AWIP
