Underworld -- 2003 -- d: Wiseman -- s: Beckinsale

This sounds like a cool movie. Hopefully, it doesn't get lost in the shuffle and has a decent release; unlike Equilibrium.

I hadn't heard of this movie until I ran across this thread. Now, after reading up on it, I'm getting pretty excited. Vampires, Werewolves, Matrix-style fighting, Crow-style atmosphere and a heroine who likes to dress in tight-fitting rubber/latex/leather? What's not to like!?

Hopefully they won't screw this up with a bad script/story. I guess we'll have to wait until Fall of this year to find out.

HOLY CRAP!!! This movie looks amazing. I posted a thread about it a few weeks ago & most people just panned the movie as a Matrix rip-off

Looks more like a female version of Blade to me. But I have no problem with that. This is easily one of the top 5 movies I'm looking forward to the rest of this year.

Damn that movie looks like total ass.

I'd better order of a Very Large heaping of "suspension of disbelief "

It does look Blade/Matrixy but that's ok.

Which themselves were ripoffs of other movies. Who cares! This looks freaking awesome! I'll watch a beautiful girl in black leather kick ass any day.

I'm on board!

Look, this is a darkly stylish (Se7ven), supernatural (Blade), Gun-Fu Fest (Matrix) with a Hot Chick (Dark Angel). Yes it lifts from many interesting sources, but so what?

I'm looking forward to this romp.

I'm really looking forward to this...yes, it looks heavily influenced by movies like Crow, Matrix, and Blade, (and even a little Daredevil spliced in) but the fact that the star is a female and the implementation looks excellent makes it a must-see...wow! I hope a higher rez trailer comes out soon.

I actually said Blade/Matrix/Crow meaning a good thing, so calm down everyone. Underworld, at least from the trailer, looks like it is obviously influenced by those films- that's all I was saying. The trailer looks good. Hope the movie follows.
