Underworld: Evolution - Comments and Message Board

I really liked Underworld - thought it was quite a funky idea - that whole lycans and vampires thing...a FRESH view, and immensely entertaining. Even the dark-blue, grey-green screens really worked for me. I'm SO pleased that Underworld:Evolution was made, because after the first one, I wanted more of the story. In my opinion, Len Wiseman did a great job of it. He kept it crisp, neat and on-the-point. This follow-up story made sense and did not stray. I also like the use of the English actors...their accents work really well for these movies - well, for these two - leaving the Canadian accent for the 'outsider', which 'Michael' was. I think it was all COOL. I'm ready for the next one - whenever! It would be intriguing to see the story of Michael Sheen's character 'Lucien'...Bring it on, Len & co.!

Enjoyed the first movie but would not have cared about the second one if it had not been for our favorite actor, Derek Jacobi. He was worth the price of admission.

I love Scott Speedman to death and I saw this movie only because he's in it yet I have no qualms in saying that I really don't care much about underworld as a movie-- not this one nor the one before it. Yes, I agree, it is damn forgettable and ordinary. Speedman was worth sitting through it though, for what it's worth. :)And, I just have to say, HEAR HEAR about your comment on Beckinsale, "I don't know if it's acting but..." Made me laugh. And, so true.
