An Honest Review

Rating: 3/10 (27 November 2016)

For starters the movie is too dark, and that is a literal dark. It sort of seems like a teenage band that can't really play and compensates by hiding behind the feedback. Underworld is that type of dark, the type where it seems like its done to hide flaws rather than because it's a movie about vampires and they live for the night.
Think Highlander II sort of too dark.
And then I can only imagine the pitch for it. "It's the Matrix with vampires...all the PVC and black leather you could ever want in a movie." You know it got the green light on the PVC alone.
Actually no, that's mean, Vampires V Lycans is a pretty solid idea for a plot-line. It seems like fun.
The thing is, the execution failed. Any movie that relies that much on an opening narration to fill in the plot is sort of lacking. At least tie it to a montage so we don't get the feeling that Selene has the oddest thought process in the world.
But otherwise, Black leather and PVC, club wear and machine guns. Slow motion and wire-fu....honestly just watch the Matrix movies, they have more of a plot.
