Wesley Snipes watch your back...

Rating: 7/10 (8 May 2004)

A fun popcorn movie, by keeping your expectations in perspective, you can look forward to the sequel and purported prequel. The story line has great potential but the director seems content to revisit action sequences seen in the matrix, highlander, and blade, etc. Kate Beckinsale's Selene gives Carrie-Anne Moss' Trinity a run for her money in the black latex department and essentially saves the movie despite its somewhat abrupt ending. Great foley effects keep you in the middle of the action and the the blue grey tones maintain the 'underworld' environment that the characters thrive on. A good rental and a nice way to spend a rainy weekend.
