This movie was totally not scary. But maybe that's because it's an ACTION MOVIE!!!

Oh, I agree with you, "Underworld" sucks compared to "Dog Soldiers". However comparing "Underworld" to "Dog Soldiers" is like comparing apples to hand granades.

For starters "Dog Soldiers" is a good old fashion low budget werewolf horror flick. Lots of blood and gore. "Oh look sausages!"

Now "Underworld" on the other hand is a huge budget Hollywood action film. (ie not horror) In that sense yes "Underworld" is OK. nothing to stand up and shout about, but hell it is not as bad as "DarkWolf" or "Werewolf" either.

Than again I am the dumbass that compared "Underworld to "Dog Soldiers to begin with. So I have posted this to clear things up, I hope this clarifies my original post.

I totally agree. LOL. The movie should not be in he horror genre at all. Hmmm... there's a little bit of drama but you can't really put your finger on it coz of the bad acting...

egg,

I didnt think it to be anything else, all horror has some amount of action in it, Dog Soldiers did, and I am not trying to compare the 2 but even as an action film, this movie masturbated sea lions. I just didnt care for it.

On a 1-10 scale it scores a solid C-. The acting in this one was horrable, Scott Speedman was drift wood. The concept and some of the effects were decent but I need a little more than that. The editing was probably the worst part, anyone else feel like this movie was a bunch of room entrancesand exits? The whole movie was someone walking into a room with 2 other people saying something and leaving. It's watchable but I wouldn't go out of my way to do so.

I'm astonished at all this hate. Horror movie or not, I totally loved it guys. It's the history that clenched it. Seeing as how I was rooting for the Lychans to begin with, and it turns out that the vamps started the war, it couldn't have turned out better. Also, the CG was kept to a minimum as someone pointed out and I'm happy for it. Can't wait to see what Markus will do in the sequel.

Acting-wise, Kate Beckinsale will also be in The Aviator. And if you don't like Kate Beckinsale, don't worry. Nobody makes bad actors seem GREAT, like Martin "God" Scorsese.

I thought they could have did a better job on that too.. and man they could have made him whop some ass faster as well... I guess they wanted to make him look more vampirish.. Cool claws though.. I do look forward to the other underworld movies..
