Selene!
Kate Beckinsale is my absolute favorite as Selene in the 'Underworld' series..aside from the first film (BOTH Director's Cut and Theatrical), this might be my favorite...would love to see this one in the rumored 'Unreleased' Director's Cut/Version...enjoy!

Improves on the first
The challenge with a sequel is that it should both build on the earlier release and at the same time stand alone dramatically. Anybody who sees a lot of movies knows that this is a very difficult task, but Wiseman makes it seem simple.There is a very brief prelude that quickly and effectively summarizes introduces you to the story of the previous film, but the story continues to develop in interesting and innovative plot twists in this sequel, without seeming contrived. The production quality is improved somewhat from the first movie. The plot moves along nicely with a very good mix of action and character development. The reprising cast builds solidly on their prior excellent performances, and Derek Jacobi brings a terrific gravitas and interpretation to his role as the "founder" of the respective Vampires and Lycans.If you love Werewolf and Vampire movies, this is one of the most creative interpretations I have seen. If you haven't seen the first movie, you will still enjoy this movie. If you have seen it, then all the better. I gave the first version 4 stars, but I thought this was actually a little better movie in terms of the story.

Enter the Underworld !!
Finally, a release date for the superb follow up to the first Underworld. I am really looking forward to owning this DVD, I only hope it includes many great extras like the special 2-disc special edition of Underworld. Underworld Evolution picks up right where Underworld left off with Selene (played by the amazingly talented and beautiful Kate Beckinsale) and Michael fresh off the slaying of Viktor. The storyline is wonderfully written and the transition from the first Underworld to Evolution is seamless (it's like one long movie). I don't want to give anything away (and I probably wouldn't be as I'm sure most people reading this have already seen Evolution) so I won't go too much into the story. Let's just say the 3rd and only remaining elder, Marcus, is awakened and there are issues between him and Selene. I will finish by saying that the original concept for this story was a trilogy with part III perhaps being a prequel. A prequel makes the most sense because you can bring back all the characters introduced in the first 2 including Viktor, Amelia, Kraven, Marcus, Lucian, Raze, et al. Again, I'm really looking forward to buying this DVD!

Huge fan of the Underworld Saga...
I remember seeing the previews for the first movie and I wasn't quite interested due to the lack of CGI for the werewolves. The suits just looked too fake for me, however, I was bored one night and decided to rent the first one on PayPerView. Instantly, I was hooked. Since then I have seen and now own every single Underworld movie.
