What can we say about Underworld Evolution? Better than the first but then again thats not saying much. It's vampires & werewolves meet the Matrix. The story takes place where the first left off, Selene played by Kate Beckinsale dressed in tight leather yes a Trinity knock off but she looks much better than Carrie Ann Moss has killed one of the elder vampires and she is being hunted. Along with her is a hybrid vampire/wereelf played by Scott Speedman. The ladies will appreciate the fact that he wears no shirt throughout the movie. They attempt to wake up the original vampire to tell them what has happened, but too late he's awake and hunting Selene down becuase little does she know she knows something of great importance. The story unravels the origins of vampires and werelwolves.
Pretty good action and special affects, but I always wonder why Selene constantly uses guns, she's a vampire and should be able to kick ass without them. Plus I don't understand why she needs a flashlight shouldn't she be able to see in the dark.
The plot is a little to intricate, everyone has to make these sci fi stories with multiple plot lines, gets a little annoying.
Beckinsale shows very little skin during her love scene, not much since her husband was behind the camera directing.
Overall entertaining, but the story line lacked interest and Beckinsale just shot endless bullets into people when she should have just bit their heads off.
Overall: C
