Movie Review: "Underworld: Awakening" is Bloody Fun
AOA NEWS
By Greg Disney
This weekend's “Underworld: Awakening” is the answer to loyal fans that have patiently waited for actress Kate Bekinsale's "Selene" to rise again from the dead for this fourth installment in the high action franchise. The good news is that the film, as with the previous versions is delivered amazingly, the bad news is that as with the previous versions, I hated it. Yes, it kept up with the franchise’s original theme of bloody survival and the explosive power struggles between the two warring species (vampires and werewolves), and “Awakening” also managed to reinvent the premise by not only introducing seductive 3D cinematography but also by employing a twist involving a new character, a child, and daughter of two worlds who may be the promise of peace for both Underworld and humanity too, but I just hate this kind of movie. Obviously, it waas not my week to pick.(★★)
