Movie Reviews of Underworld (Unrated) [Blu-ray]

Movie Review: Keeps your blood pumping
Summary: 5 Stars

I really hate 99.9% of the horror films made after 1974 -- It seems that after the original Texas Chainsaw Massacre, the final golden age of the horror film had ended and most of what was left was slasher films, teenagers in terror, and something presently referred to as slasher porn. Vulgar, lacking in brainpower and inspiration (unlike the wonderful old mad doctors and madmen, who made you think they were more reasonable than the "sane" people around them), the horror film has been hijacked just like the good values of a religion giving way to the rages of fanatics and fundamentalists. But, I found Underworld to be an exception. Fast paced, an attempt at a sensible story, and it contains conflict that one can relate to from all opposing characters. At some point, you almost wonder who is right and who is wrong. Great looking film (with focus as sharp as a tack), especially well done considering that it is night throughout most of the movie. Except for the dialogue often being buried and hard to understand without blasting your ears into deafness, the sound mix is, otherwise, fantastic. Everything swirls and crashes and clinks its way around you. Much better than I would have expected, especially considering that lead Beckinsale was the female lead in what I consider one of the worst movies ever made, 2004's laughably awful Van Helsing.

Movie Review: Extended cut NOT Director's cut
Summary: 3 Stars

I'm a big fan of this movie, and the extras that come with this version are nice, but I wish I had of chosen the theatrical release. The extra footage that you'll find in this version is quite good, and does a better job of explaining some of the plot points and character motivations, and I did enjoy having the director and both main characters doing the commentary BUT the footage that was cut was cut for pacing reasons and as a result this version tends to drag on. If there's ever a director's cut I'll consider buying that, but, given the choice, I'd rather the good pacing and tempo of the theatrical release than the extra story points.

Movie Review: Awesome!
Summary: 5 Stars

Arrived early in the mail and i live in Canada, good stuff!

Great audio and video quality..must have in your blu-ray collection!

Movie Review: Better than the second...
Summary: 5 Stars

I watched the second film first. Not only does the first clarify things a hundred times over. It's also a much better film overall. The storyline is much more intriguing and the characters have much more depth.

I love the Blu-ray high-def quality. I played the film on my PS3 connected by HDMI to a Polaroid 15" HDTV and multi-out to a Durabrand 5.1 surround system.

Movie Review: Amazing Blu Ray Quality!
Summary: 5 Stars

This movie is even better when viewed in 1080p high definition! This Blu Ray movie was well worth the price difference over the regular 480i standard DVD! Absolutly amazing!
