Movie Reviews of Ultraviolet [Blu-ray]

Movie Review: Comic book movie
Summary: 4 Stars

As a long long time reader of comics this is how a comic would be filmed. Right up there with Ironman. And as other have stated, Milla is easy on the eyes. My kind of girl.

Summary of Ultraviolet [Blu-ray]

Milla Jovovich (Resident Evil The Fifth Element) Cameron Bright (X-Men 3) Nick Chinlund (The Legend of Zorro) and William Fichtner (The Longest Yard) star in this theatrical set in the late 21st century a subculture of humans have emerged who have been modified genetically by a vampire-like disease (Hemophagia) giving them enhanced speed incredible stamina and acute intelligence and as they are set apart from "normal" and "healthy" humans the world is pushed to the brink of worldwide civil war (a war between humans and hemophages) aimed at the destruction of the "diseased" population. In the middle of this crossed-fire is - an infected woman - Ultraviolet who finds herself protecting a nine-year-old boy who has been marked for death by the human government as he is believed to be a threat to humans.System Requirements:Running Time 87 Mins.Format: BLU-RAY DISC Genre:?SCI-FI/FANTASY Rating:?PG-13 UPC:?043396153783 Manufacturer No:?15378

As an overdose of eye candy, Ultraviolet can be marginally recommended as the second-half of a double-feature with Aeon Flux. Both films are disposable adolescent fantasies featuring a butt-kicking babe (in this case, the svelte and sexy Milla Jovovich) in a dystopian future, and both specialize in the kind of barely-coherent, video-game storytelling that's constantly overwhelmed by an over-abundance of low-budget CGI. Director Kurt Wimmer fared much better with his earlier film Equilibrium, but he's trying for a lively comic-book vibe here (beginning with Hulk-like opening credits) with a digitally enhanced, Tron-like color palette. It largely suits this late-21st century story of a "blood war" between the ultra-violent Violet (Jovovich), member of a vampire-like group of resistance fighters infected with a man-made virus called the Hemophage, and the human Vice Cardinal Daxus (Nick Chinlund), who's determined to eliminate Violet's kind once and for all. Wimmer takes all of this way too seriously, crafting a plot involving Violet's rescue of a human clone boy (Cameron Bright) that's intended as an homage to John Cassevetes' 1980 drama Gloria, but Wimmer's good intentions are mostly lost in a repetitive series of chaotically choreographed fight scenes, mostly involving the tight-bodied Jovovich wiping out dozens of armor-clad enemies. It's all too numbingly hectic to qualify as a satisfying movie, but sci-fi buffs should give it a look anyway, if only to see how locations in Shanghai and Hong Kong contribute to the film's futuristic design.--Jeff Shannon
