Underworld: Awakening sticks to its parameters but stifles its efficacy by taking the fight above ground. [Full review in Spanish]

| Original Score: 4/10 | Jun 21, 2023

There’s little reason for anyone outside of blindly devoted fans to seek it out.

| Original Score: 0.5/4 | Feb 23, 2023

On a weekend where virtually every film is flawed yet entertaining this is one film that is simply flawed.

| Original Score: 2.0/4.0 | Sep 26, 2020

A pale woman in a vinyl catsuit opened fire indiscriminately today. Among the casualties were Plot and Consistency. She should be considered armed and extremely British.

| Original Score: 5/10 | Nov 4, 2018

[Kate] Beckinsale doesn't seem very interested in being in the film.

| Original Score: 2.5/5 | Sep 28, 2017

... seems both stripped down in complexity for a new audience as well as cut into a bite-sized chunk to more easily swallow... neither of which is going to draw new fans to the franchise or keep current fans interested.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Jan 5, 2017

It really adds nothing to the already dull mythos of the vampires war with the lycans...

As stylish and flashy as the action is this time around, I can still only recommend Underworld: Awakening to diehard fans of the series.

| Original Score: 6/10 | Oct 12, 2012

This was a film that was so soulless and so lifeless that it had not made a single bit of impact while it was playing.

| Original Score: 1.5/4 | Sep 17, 2012

if you are looking for an intelligent movie you may need to look elsewhere.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Aug 30, 2012

Underworld: Awakening boasts some fun stylized action, and Kate Beckinsale back in that skin-tight outfit, but it also continues the franchise's streak of frustrating mediocrity.

| Original Score: 5/10 | Jun 6, 2012

What begins as a promising reset ultimately settles into a too much of a retread, however watchable it may be.

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Jun 4, 2012

... a blur of generic exposition, random plot twists, vaguely maternal instincts, sloppy CGI animation, and Stephen Rea looking like a waxwork ...

| May 19, 2012

We can never tire of watching Kate Beckinsale prance about in that tight leather outfit I tell ya. Never!

| May 6, 2012

If you just accept this one as a bloody popcorn movie and don't look for much complexity, you'll undoubtedly be happy with it.

| Original Score: 6/10 | May 3, 2012

Awakening has the mentality of a straight-to-video sequel, the body of an ADD child and the pulsing veins of a meth addict.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Mar 1, 2012

he vampires and werewolves are at it again. No, Twihards, you haven't missed another "Twilight" episode. This is indeed part of a franchise, but a far different, more violent one.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Feb 11, 2012

I LIKEanthroped it.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Feb 7, 2012

I don't think this was meant to be funny, but I found it pretty darn amusing.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Feb 2, 2012
