I never gave a shit about the Underworld series. The only reason why I saw this was because I was invited by my friends, who are really into vampire and werewolf lore, and have actually watched this series.
The movie starts with a brief recap of the first three movies for...some reason. It certainly helped me out a bit, but so would leaning over to my friend and asking "who the hell is Michael?"
This being the fourth installment, the film basically assumes the audience has seen the first three movies so I was just thrown into this world without much knowledge of anything, except that vampires and lycans exist and have somehow come to our world and have been ethnically cleansed by the humans and I stopped caring after that.
It certainly feels like a sequel, because nothing is really explained or analyzed unless it was important to the plot. Sooo, I certainly was a bit lost, not that I cared.
I have a few questions:
If this is an R rated movie, why do they try so hard to cover up Kate Beckensale's breasts when she awakes naked in a cryogenic pod? You can have her shooting lycans left and right, blood splattering everywhere, but not have her show her nipples? Really? Maybe it was a contract thing, or maybe she didn't want to be exposed like that. Eh, whatever.
Why do they keep making these movies? And why did they leave the ending open? Are they really making a fifth one?
My opinion? This:
I saw the trailer and LMAO'd.
