Have Guns replaced Fangs in this Underworld?

Rating: Null/10 (22 April 2004)

I'm not an expert of Vampyr mythology, but I was always under the impression that Vampires had a physical, as well as mental edge over Lycans, so it was confusing (although visually appealing) to see a leather-clad Kate Beckinsale swirling in her black cape (a la Matrix) shooting from a pair of inexhaustable handguns at physically larger and more powerful werewolves.
I did appreciate the backstory to the War between the Vamps and the Lycans, but I think Wiseman failed at the exposition. Too much unneccessary exposition of Corwin's character and his odd chemistry with Seline could have been done more effectively. Their initial kissing scene came so far from left field, I felt embarrassed for the actors.
