It is entertainment

Rating: 10/10 (1 October 2003)

As a fan of the genre, I have to say that Underworld is on of the best vampire movies that I have seen in a long time. There actually is a multi-layered plot that unfolds as the movie progresses. I look forward to the sequels that are currently on the drawing board for this film due to the room left in the story by the writers. The violence and action are not over-done or full of gore. The look of the movie is simple and clean while at the same time remaining dark. The film focuses more on the scientific rather than the fantastical elements of vampires. If you are wanting to see a film that is excellent example of the genre and highly entertaining, then I would gladly recommend Underworld.
