Vampires Versus Lycans

Rating: 6/10 (29 July 2016)

Selene (Kate Beckinsale), a beautiful warrior, is entrenched in a war between the vampire and werewolf races. Although she is aligned with the vampires, she falls in love with Michael, a human who is sought by werewolves for unknown reasons.
What so you get if you create a world of sleek vampires, make them angry at a world of werewolves, infuse some "Matrix" mojo, and add a blue-grey lens to the camera? You might think "Twilight" or "True Blood" or something else, and you'd be right. Add a butt-load of guns, and you would have "Underworld".
Is this Kate Beckinsale's breakout role? I mean, I know she did some BBC films or something classy, but if you live in my bubble (the genre film bubble), this is what you most associate her with, sort of like Milla Jovovich in "Resident Evil". And with about thirty sequels, why not?
