Editorial Review:
Sony Pictures Underworld: Evolution (Blu-Ray) DVDKate Beckinsale is back as vampire heroine Selene in the highly anticipated sequel to "Underworld." "UnderworldEvolution" continues the saga of war between the aristocratic Death Dealers and the barbaric Lycans(werewolves). The film traces the beginnings of the ancient feud between the two tribes as Selene (Kate Beckinsale), the vampire heroine, and her love Michael (Scott Speedman), the lycan hybrid, try to unlock the secrets of their bloodlines. The tale of action, intrigue and forbidden love takes them into the battle to end all wars as the immortalsmust finally face their retribution.

Description of Underworld Evolution [Blu-ray]:
Better action, a bit of sex, and gorier R-rated violence make Underworld: Evolution a reasonably satisfying sequel to 2003's surprise hit Underworld. Looking stunning as ever in her black leather battle gear, Kate Beckinsale is every goth guy's fantasy as Selene, the vampire "death dealer" who's now fighting to stop the release of the original "Lycan" werewolf, William (Brian Steele) from the prison that's held him for centuries. As we learn from the film's action-packed prologue, William and his brother Marcus (Tony Curran) began the bloodline of vampires and werewolves, and after witnessing centuries of warfare between them, their immortal father Corvinus (Derek Jacobi) now seeks Selene and the human vampire/lycan hybrid Michael (Scott Speedman) to put an end to the war perpetuated by Victor (Bill Nighy), the vampire warrior whose betrayal of Selene turns Underworld: Evolution into an epic tale of familial revenge. This ambitious attempt at Shakespearean horror is compromised by a script (by Danny McBride and returning director Len Wiseman, Beckinsale's real-life husband) that's more confusing than it needs to be, with too many characters and not enough storytelling detail to flesh them all out. Aspiring to greatness and falling well short of that goal, Underworld: Evolution succeeds instead as a full-throttle action/horror thriller, with enough swordplay, gunplay, and CGI monsters to justify the continuation of the Underworld franchise. If you're an established fan, this is a must-see movie; if not, well... at least it's better than Van Helsing! --Jeff Shannon

Underworld Evolution [Blu-ray] Reviews:
Russ' Underworld Evolution
2009-11-05 - This Underworld is THE must own out of the set of three! Kate Beckinsale is at her all time smokingest hottest! Scott Speedman's Hybrid is superb! And well Marcus' character is everything you want from a vilan! Action is incredible a perfect run time movie. You never sit there and say how much more could they do here, wondering when it'll end. Loved every second! Since I purchased have watched probably min. 5 times! A+++++

AN AWESOME SEQUEL 9 OUT OF 10
2009-11-02 - This film unfortunately, was the least liked of the trilogy. Personally I think it's almost as good as the first film. Like the first film, you should watch this and ignore everything to do with Twilight (If anything, that will rot your brain and degrade your intelligence). This is a 'real' vampire film, and not an incompetent and poorly made teen drama with no substance and a pansy emo as the main character.
WHAT IT'S ABOUT: We are reintroduced to Selene and Michael (Who is now part Lycan and part vampire), who are now on the run from the remaining vampires including a vampire named Marcus (Who takes over after Viktor's death in the previous film) who is angry and is out to find his Lycan (werewolf) brother and free him. Now Selene and Michael must find Corvinus (The father of both vampires and Lycans) and find a way to end this never-ending conflict between the Lycans and vampires and defeat Marcus and his brother. Like the first film, the story wasn't taken as far as it could have gone.
MUSIC: I have never seen a film in which Marco Beltrami's music disappointed me, and this film is no exception. This music always sets the mood and flows quite nicely throughout.
ACTION: This film is even bloodier than the first film and there's even more shootout scenes, a treat for any action fan. This film gets the adrenaline pumping and never lets up until the end. Another area that this film succeeds in, while Twilight fails spectacularly in comparison.
ACTING: Unfortunately, the acting in this film isn't as good as its predecessor. The main actors are great like Kate Beckinsale and Scott Speedman, but there are points in which the other actors aren't quite as believable or there's some cheesy dialogue. For the most part, the acting is good, but there are some actors who aren't as good as the others. However, even the not-so-great actors look Academy Award-winning in comparison to Twilight's actors.
OVERALL: This film serves as an excellent sequel to an already excellent predecessor. There's more action and more blood this time around, and it shouldn't disappoint action fans looking for a good time. Again, ignore Twilight at all costs because it's an insult to all vampire films and will make you dumber. It pales in comparison to this great film.
THE GOOD: More bloody action, great music, good actors, and a solid storyline.
THE BAD: Storyline didn't go as far as it could have, and there moment of cheesy dialogue.

Superb Follow Up to "Underworld"
2009-09-24 - What can I say? This is pretty much the perfect movie. There are a couple of scenes towards the middle that I found pretty useless (a "nearly nude" sex scene, and then a couple glimpses of a not so discreet one) but these are brief and can be skipped. The writing is tight, the pacing is perfect and the action is downright incredible. I found this movie satisfying and entertaining in every way.

(Oh, and kudos to Marco Beltrami on creating a far superior score to Haslinger's original.)

Underworld Evolution
2009-08-05 - Bought this movie on Amazon Market place used. Good Movie quick service good quality. Would recommend this to any SCI FI fan.

Underworld Entertainment
2009-07-07 - The great special effects in this DVD make for some very entertaining viewing. The costumes are LA OK. Vampire and werewolf (lycans) special effects...make up for some of the costumes.

Tony Curran, as Marcus, delivered a formidable performance, and so did Derick Jacobi, as the father of all vampires. The action sequences are very fine...making up for the rudimentary plot. This is very entertaining in a high action vampire/werewolf kind of way.
