Underworld: Rise of The Lycans

Official Site: entertheunderworld.com


Lucian was born a unique Lycan. Unlike other Lycans, Lucian could transform into a Lycan, and back to a human. As an infant Lucian's life was spared by the lord of the vampires, Viktor, who later claimed Lucian, even as and adult, as his favorite pet. However, after a incident involving Viktor's daughter Sonja, Lucian would loose that privilege.

For the most part, this film was entertaining. The story was not extraordinary, but it held my interest enough not to classify it as boring. Contrasted with the previous two, this film's story was seemingly not as complex, in that, it was not multifaceted, but linear.

Although it was difficult to see many of the fight scenes clearly
(perhaps because they were cut too often) , the action scenes were good, but they were missing a certain flair. Moving on, the production was off the charts with the Gothic costumes, castles, and weapons. Visually, these films are always amazing to watch. According to metacritic.com the film earned generally mixed reviews, and rottentomatoes.com granted this film 16 fresh tomatoes to 21 rotten ones thus far. this film was entertaining, it gets a C+.
