I wish I could Lycan this to a good film

Rating: 4/10 (14 June 2012)

Amidst a generations old war between vampires and were-wolfs, Selene (Kate Bekensale, "Haunted", "Uncovered"), a sexy vamp, finds herself inexplicably romantically drawn to lycanthrope, Michael, whom she saves despite facing the ire of her own kind, and whom might just have the key to finally eat this decades long feud.
An exercise in style over substance, this overly long, overtly (almost to the point of clownishly) melodramatic piece of fantasy action assembly-line product looks good but all is for naught as it lacks any kind of heart (or indeed brain). I truly tried to watch this flick with an open mind and choose to give it the benefit of the doubt. My friend loves this franchise, alas I had to come to the uncomforting conclusion that his taste in films is quite suspect to say the least.
My Grade: D+
