UNDERWORLD
With
Kate
Beckinsale,
Scott
Speedman,
Bill
Nighy
Directed
by
Len
Wiseman
What
seems
like
an
obvious
match-up
that
could've
been
tackled
long
ago
is
successfully
brought
to
the
screen.
The
Vampire
and
Werewolf
genres
come
to
a
head
in
this
gothic
tale
of
an
ancient
battle
between
these
two
nocturnal
species.
There
are
underhanded
dealings
afoot.
A
bit
of
Romeo
&
Juliet
is
thrown
in
with
the
forbidden
romantic
possibilities.
Beckinsale
doesn't
look
too
bad,
but
lack
some
voluptuousness.
There
is
an
unmistakably
strong
Manga
and
Matrix
approach
in
style
and
costumes
(rubber
/
leather
/
PVC),
but
they
manage
to
blend
it
into
this
film's
own
identity.
Action
packed,
the
movie
plays
through
without
a
single
hint
of
daylight.
Crappy
moments
include
the
ludicrous
and
laughable
deep
voice
of
one
of
the
lycanthropes
and
vampire
extras
over-posing
as
they're
placed
in
their
positions.
