Underworld: Rise of the Lycans

Just got back from movies and dinner with the wife and we went and watched the new Underworld movie. My wife loved the 1st two and this one was no different.
I've read numerous times on other sites people not wanting to see this because Kate Beckinsale wasn't in it. I really don't see why not, it's an origins movie about Lucian, Viktor and Sonja (Viktor's daughter). It didn't need Kate and besides Rhona Mitra who play Sonja is practically just another Selene (by design).

Probably my favorite part of either of the 1st two is the opening scene of Underworld: Evolution, with Viktor and the other vampires clearing out the village of werewolves while dressed in their mid-evil garb. Rise of the Lycans is like that but longer, with a love story mixed in.

Is this movie going to win any awards, no, but it isn't suppose to just like the previous two installments. But if you liked the 1st two, then I see no reason why not to like this one.

Krystal and I are going to see it tomorrow, I love the first two...but that may or may have been because I have a teensy bit of a thing for Kate Beckinsale...soo I was a little disappointed, but I like the movies themselves and not JUST her.

Glad you posted something! I'm stoked to see this, so I'm glad it was good!

The movie looks cool from what I can tell. I liked the first 2. For some odd reason I have a thing for vampire movies anyways.

mmmmmm Kate Beckinsale.....

Me too about the vampire movies. But I go crazy over werewolf movies - so I have high hopes for this one!

I can't wait to go see it, I'm glad you gave a good review on it :GJ: Maybs not the best, but as long as you say if we like the first two, we'll like this, then that's good enough for me. I'm a sucker for anything fantastical/sci-fi :rolleyes:

Chris I can't wait to see the Rise of the Lycans! I just have to find time to break free from the baby!
