Anyone seen it yet? I read a few reviews and they mostly say that the sequel is better acted and a better overall movie than the original.

It's #1 at the box office so someone must have seen it. Need some reviews!

Saw it.

Heh. It had sooo much potential. But dropped the ball. I thought it was OK. Sylvos thought it was HORRIBLE. Cheese factor was high.

Can't be worse than Transporter 2 in the cheese department.

That's not really saying much, Pee-wee's Big Adventure was better than the original.

Don't be hatin on Pee-Wee!

That this piece of shit is #1 at the box office shows two things:
1. Hollywood is shoveling nothing but shit out.
2. Goths and Emokids are fucking stupid and like it up the ass.

Er, the original what? Pee-Wee's Big Adventure was the original of that franchise. Big Top Pee-Wee was the sequel.

I think he was comaring the original Underworld to Pee-Wee's Big Adventure.

I liked it. Yes it could have been better. If it showed more of the history of the 2 clans,that would have made it that much better.

Over all out of a 10 I give it a 7.

Oh, I see now. My mistake, I read it incorrectly.

I enjoyed it, but I went into it just expecting to have fun watching vampires and lycans fighting + some skin based off the trailer.

If you are looking for a movie with a deep storyline and intense acting than I'd go see something else, but for what it is I thought UW2 was a good movie.

Does Kate Beckinsale get naked?

Movie was cheezy beyond belief. RAR I'M MICHAEL TEH HALF WAREWOLF/VAMPIRE..I CAN LEAP AROUND. And the effects.. omfg..every time I saw that helicopter / boat I timewarped back to 1981.

Kinda.

Anyway, if you look at the UW movies for what they are (primarily action flicks w/ "some horror") they work very well. I'd probably put it in the 7/10 area as well.

One thing though; Did anyone else notice *really* bad digital sheering/bluring whenever the camera panned? Like when you're playing a game at 15 FPS and the image appears to move in obvious discreet intervals across the screen.

I'm not sure if it was digitally filmed or if the theatre had a ditigal projector... but it looked fucking awful.

If it's better than UW1 i'll watch it!

Kate had teh best look in Van Helsing tho! Hope she gots longer hair than in UW1 in this Episode!

Breagen · Post by **Breagen** » January 26, 2006, 7:28 am

I never saw anything like that when I watched it Zaelath, may have just been your theater or a bad copy.

Personally I thought the special effects were perfectly good. I'm sure they could have been better but it's not like they had the budget of a LoTR or Spiderman movie to do them with.

If you take the movie for what it is and don't go in expecting something truly amazing I think you will enjoy them. However, if you didn't like UW1 there is no reason you would like UW2, but I thought the second one was better so if you did enjoy the first than check this one out.

Janx · Post by **Janx** » January 27, 2006, 4:08 am

I thought UW1 was MUCH MUCH better then UW2.
