UnderWorld 4 for 2011

Staff Writer: Grave Digger

Another one, you say? Yep, that's what we're telling you.

Underworld has a sequel in the works. No word yet on the plot or the characters. We do know Kate Beckinsale has been attached.

The film will not be shot in 3D as reported before, but nonetheless the film was pushed back from January 2011 to September 2011.

Underworld 3: Rise of the Lycans

Staff Writer: Samuntha Mackenzie

4 1/2 out of 5 shovels
In this prequel to Underworld and Underworld 2, Rise of the Lycans refreshes the franchise.

Though most of the movie is dark and gloomy, Lucian and Sonja's love brighten the Shakespearen drama. Romeo and Juliet conquer adversity and diversity only to have one perish and the other wage a war for the ages.

Underworld 3 has a quality the other two films lacked: passion. Action and violence were the center of the other movies. This film centered on the relationship between two star-crossed lovers that led to action and violence. A much better combination of factors.

The script was livelier, less derivitive and repetitive. I like a jaunt on the wild side as anyone else, but good lines are essential for every character, or filmmakers run into the gambit of campiness.

Luckily, Rise of the Lycans avoided many of its predecesors pitfalls.
