Movie Reviews of Ultraviolet (Widescreen Edition)
Movie Review: Best Action Movie since Kill Bill ! Amazing visuals !
Summary: 5 Stars
I am not much of a action fan ! But I have to say this was an extemley entertaining film ! The visuals were amazing this was one of the most ultramodern movies I had ever seen. Most movies that take place in the future looks like today's world. U are able to tell something is out of sync, somehow. But Kurt Wimmer had a vision, a true vison. Non of the buildings were recognizable all of the vehicles were prototypes. U had a bracelets for credit cards? Dispensible telephones that pop out of a machines? The set and architecture were all original. Even though they were CGI's at least there was time and thought put into it. The sets were very colorful and the costumes were cool. This was extremley well made as far as creativity was concerned.
The fight sequences were bad ass ! Yes, there were a couple of fights that were too short. And the odds were just unbelievable ! But for the most part these were some of the best fight sequences I have seen since Kill bill ! Especially when she took out all those guards in that library and that orchestrated music was playing. At the end of the fight she held her gun up in the air, Kneeled down with sprinkles falling ! That was bad ass ! I almost wanted to get up and clap after that. I was high off of adrenaline the whole time I was in the theater. I hadn't felt like that since kill bill ! Milla was stunning throughout and very tough through the film. Her confidence and straight forwardness, made u really believe in what she was doing. Everyone's arguement was that she was no stronger than anyone she was fighting. Well ! have u ever been pissed off ? When someone is pissed they can do the impossible. And she was a very pissed and a angry young lady. Which the explained at the beginning of the movie Why? So in a since I can see that it is quite possible for her to take out some of the people she did. The movie opens up with 40 mins of none stop action ! This is before u get to any type of plot which I felt was a new and interesting way to open ! I love the matrix as much as anyone else did ! But in all honesty after the first, reloaded offered very little more. At times the Matrix got to preachy and put me to sleep ! Equilibrum showed Kurt Wimmer's potiental as an amazing fight coordinator ! But was illustrated very little because of Equilibrium's long drawn out plot ! In this film he just showed out and gave us nothing but action. It seemed like he was trying too hard but it was effective ! I have never seen ANYTHING like this ! I can honestley say with a straight face! I am not a action move lover because they bore me ! But this was a visually stunning film, I don't care what anyone says ! This was much more appealing to me than Resident Evil: Apocalyse ! That had wooden acting and not so great effects compared to this ! But Ultraviolet delivers something abit more ! If your looking for "Brokeback mountain" this movie isn't for you. This is a artistic piece for people that like visuals!
The movie critics are horrible ! Noone can appreaciate a fun unusual unique movie anymore. Its a shame when movies like Underworld: Evolutions, Bloodrayne (Better than most), Equilibrium, May, High Tension, Mulholland Dr and Donnie Darko. Can't get any awards, recongnition or decent ratings ! But Sh*t like Brokeback Mountian and Memoirs of Geisa this is the Sh*t that people think it Great ? What is the world coming too ? And King Kong ? Something that has been made twice already ? Please David Lynch, Len Wisemen, Lucky Mckee and Kurt Wimmer don't give up in film making ! There are still people out there who can appreciate real art and not "Tear jerkers !" And how is it that "Million dollar baby" got voted out over Kill bill,last year at the Emmy's or Oscars ? Who knows ! See that is what I am talking about ! Even Hustle and Flow ? That was crap but that is what the world has come too ! Oh well ! I am interested in seeing how Basic Instinct 2 does ?
