This is also a movie I watched the day before yesterday. The third part of the "Underworld" series is a prequel.
At the end of the first story, it revealed the reason for the hatred between the wolf family and the vampire for hundreds of years. The plot of this prequel specifically describes this reason. It tells how the wolf tribe became slaves of vampires, the love between the daughter of the vampire boss and the boss of the wolf tribe, and how the vampire boss killed relatives righteously after knowing their love. At the end of the film, it depicts the rise of the wolf clan, fighting against vampires together, and starting a battle. In the end, the vampires ran away desperately, and the wolf tribe won a big victory. This is the story told in the 90 minutes of the film, a patterned movie, such a clichéd magical story, I can write it at home. What makes me most unbearable is that this film, as a prequel, did not finish telling the story of the prequel, such as how the wolf clan leader reached a deal with a vampire, and so on. It still has the tail of the story. It is impossible to film a " Prequel 2"? Hollywood can really make money.
Hollywood can make money, but the films must at least be good-looking, such as the "Chain Saw" series, but after watching one, I want to watch the next one. But this series of "Underworld" made me really speechless. It was so ugly that I didn't want to finish it, especially this prequel. There is no suspense in the plot. It is a step-by-step plot, and you can guess the plot with your toes; the lines are empty and there are no objects, what hatred, threats, family affection, mixed elements of various genres, this is thoroughly. A bullshit movie; the pale plot, empty dialogue, and patterned characters make the film unable to express any theme at all, of course, except for love. Love is the eternal theme of the movie. The director of this movie will only portray love. Besides love, can't we portray anything else? How can I finish watching such an unwatched movie with peace of mind?
The heroine of the first two "Underworld" series of movies is Kate Beckinsale, who is in good shape and has a lot of playing time, especially in many scenes showing her figure. In this film, the heroine was replaced by Rhona Mitra. She impressed me very much in the "Boston Law" I watch now. She is sexy and charming, with a special charm. She is a different type of beauty from Kate Beckinsale. Comparing the two is no equal. But for such a beautiful woman, the choreographer didn't give her the space to show her charm, she spent very little time on stage, and there were fewer scenes showing her figure. Although there was a passionate sex scene, it was also a covert cut. Although it is the heroine, it feels like a supporting actress. That's it. This film discards the killer feature of the "Underworld" series—showing your figure. What else is there to look good in such a movie?
The only thing this film is better than the first two films of "Underworld" is that the special effects are more realistic and the scenes are more magnificent. The werewolf transformation at the beginning of the film, the vampire and the werewolf battle at the end of the film, the special effects are all very good. Comparing the three movies, this one has the best special effects, especially the end game, which has a magnificent momentum and looks like the ultimate battle of some magical blockbusters. It can also be seen from this aspect that the technology of computer special effects has improved, and the first two parts of the "Underworld" series have also made a lot of money, otherwise they would not invest in such large-scale special effects.
In terms of actors, the heroine I have said before, she looks very good, but it is a pity that she has limited space to play, which also prevents her from showing off her acting skills. However, from the perspective of "Boston Law", her performance is still very good. The other actors in this film really have nothing to say, they are all roaring performances. The main character either stares or yells in a loud voice, as if if he doesn't act like this, he is not a vampire or a werewolf. Again, this kind of special effects action movie does not require acting skills, just perform due diligence.
Generally speaking, this is a terrible piece of money making, so terrible movies like Hollywood can be shot, so I really admire it! I heard that the fourth film will still be filmed. If the director is at this level, can the filming still be seen?
