I love the Underworld series. I saw Awakening yesterday and even though I knew the plot and spoilers, etc. I still loved it. Definite action and Selene is definitely more aggressive and angry in this one than previous ones. I do believe a little more time could have been spent on some character interaction development, such as that between Selene and her daughter (who we all know her name is Eve but I don't remember ever hearing it in the movie, I believe she was just referred to at 'girl', 'it', and 'specimen 2')as well as a little more time with Selene realizing she has a daughter and how that might impact the overall situation. I thought that part could have been a little more developed (but I am a female, after all and we do enjoy our relationships). The action was wonderful and nonstop. I left the theater feeling like Awakening was similar to Empire Strikes Back...it wasn't really a finished ending to a story- just a stepping stone to a solid ending for the story - which I really hope they do (longer than 88 minutes and with Scott Speedman for Michael).
