Pulpy, punk-ish story with some intense violence.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Dec 29, 2010

In the end, it's more a role-playing game scenario than a plot -- although there someone would have worked out rules that make sense.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Dec 30, 2006

These vampires have no teeth -- hell, they don't even fly.

[Beckinsale's] detached, no-nonsense demeanor helps give this chilly adventure an S&M-inspired eroticism.

| Original Score: C+ | May 4, 2005

All told, it looks sumptuously deceased and enticing, just like Beckinsale, who owns this sternum-rattlingly loud film from start to finish.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Oct 1, 2003

'Your incompetence is most taxing,' says the chief vampire (Bill Nighy). A line that pretty much nails this rusty Blade.

Full Review | Original Score: 1/4 | Sep 25, 2003

The sort of movie in which the head vampire telegraphs his evil by using a cell phone and dressing like the Kinks' Ray Davies in the early '80s.

| Original Score: C | Sep 24, 2003

Dark Shadows for the Playstation 2 generation.

Full Review | Sep 24, 2003

If this movie doesn't quite rise to the category of silly fun, it is a tolerable comic book-style time-waster with some stylistic flair and some energetic action sequences.

Full Review | Original Score: B- | Sep 23, 2003

The film takes the fetishization of the vampire in contemporary pop culture quite literally.

| Original Score: 1.5/4 | Sep 22, 2003

I've been waiting a long time to see a Shakespearean werewolf vampire movie and here it is.

Full Review | Sep 22, 2003

125 minutes is a long time to stare at a movie that's basically in bleached blue-and-white with occasional splotches of brick red.

| Sep 20, 2003

By any reasonable standard, this dark vampire epic -- all massive overacting, cologne-commercial design and sexy cat suits -- sucks.

| Sep 20, 2003

If that sounds harsh, it isn't meant to, for Underworld is a kicky good time.

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Sep 20, 2003

It needs a wooden stake and a silver bullet through its script.

Full Review | Sep 19, 2003

For all its slick, neo-noir style, Underworld brings very little that's new to a hoary genre, except for the cliches and conventions of other hoary genres.

Full Review | Sep 19, 2003

Features some of the year's most laughable dialogue.

Full Review | Original Score: 1/4 | Sep 19, 2003

Wiseman ... seems vastly more concerned with making a fashion statement than scaring the bejesus out of us.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Sep 19, 2003

A weirdly compelling blend of corny sentiment and bloodthirsty ballet.

Full Review | Original Score: 3/4 | Sep 19, 2003

What it all amounts to is a movie that is clearly too cool for 온라인카지노추천, but one that offers too little beneath the surface to offer much more than an entertaining diversion.

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Sep 19, 2003
