Another One Bite's The Dust

Imagine the pitch:
Writer in front of Hollywood Producer: This is the idea: Emma Peel meets Blade via The Matrix.
Hollywood Producer: Wow! That's really derivative! You got yourself a deal!!
Yes, folks, Underworld really can be summed up in that one line concept. But, unfortunately, IMDb require more lines in a posting. So a couple of other points while I'm about it.
Ms Beckensale does an amazing job of sustaining one facial expression throughout. What an actress!
Clichés abound. As do plot holes. Note:Woman scorned eavesdropping. Guard told not to let Selene out of her room at any cost. Woman scorned turns off lights. Guard miraculously disappears. Selene escapes. Cobblers!
A triumph of form over content. The producer must be laughing all the way to the bank.
