Vampires Vs Werewolves Vs Thespians

If you like the first 2 you're gonna like Underworld 3 as well. It completes the story cycle, recalling how the Lycan / Vampire war started. For those unfamiliar with the Underworld movies, it's basically Romeo & Juliet, with a shit load of Pale thespians and groovy CGI werewolves.

Although not directed by original helmer Len Wiseman, his replacement makes a good effort of it, providing a film that looks and feels a part of the franchise. Continuity is aided by returning scenery chewers Michael Sheen, Bill Nighey and others. Rhona Mitra rises above her Doomsday blandness (perhaps trying to impress her impressive co-stars) to deliver a worthy performance. But expectation (based on previous lead actress Kate Beckinsale), plus cunning advertising, would have you believe it's Rhona's movie; it's not. The lead is Sheen who proves he can do leading man as well.

The effects are passable, the scale is pretty big (considering the limited budget), the action aplenty (if too quickly cut) and the ending cool.

And yes, its R-rated, so Rhona gets to strip.
