Loved it!!!

I loved this movie! It is by far my favorite Underworld. I've always been a little upset that the vampires dont seem to be able to hold their own against the werewolves, but if you know anything about the two species, the lycanthropes have always been physically stronger than the vampires, but vampires had them beat on mystical powers.

I think the story and premise of opening the war up to the humans is quite engaging. And there has to be a fifth one because the story is still open. I'm going to go see it again!

    Wow. This was horrible. By far the worst plot of the series. I was shocked when the movie ended because it seemed like it was the middle, no resolution, just an empty feeling. Hardly any development of the charactors. Just seemed like it was slapped together to bleed a few more bucks out of the frachaise.

    I almost felt like it was a teaser for a second set of movies (like a trilogy or something)... when they got to the roof and i saw the credits opened i just got angry... the movie was good but waaaay too short... the way they ended it hinted at a sequel that would shortly be released... but no sequel appears to be spoken of yet :(

      Michael fell into some water then Selene went in after him, then a bomb of some kind went in after both of them and ended up blowing up between them. Someone ended up putting both of them in suspended animation (froze them). Selene somehow escaped, found out that Michael was still alive busted the vessel they had michael in, but had to leave. Came back to get him. He was gone. No one knows where.

    I LOVED THIS MOVIE !!!! This was my 1st IMAX 3D expierence and I was sooo impressed. The true mark of if a movie is good is if you could watch it twice. I LOVED THIS MOVIE SO MUCH I WANT TO SEE IT AGAIN AS SOON AS POSSIBLE!!!

    Non-stop action and interesting revelations, the trademarks of this franchise movie. You'll think that it was a short one but because it was really a great movie that you'd want more especially after a long wait. This is also one of those movie series that you can watch over and over again without getting bored. It won't be at the top box office for nothing! So, don't be left behind!!

    Don't you people who are wondering why Michael only played a minor role in it understand why? To keep you guessing as to what happened. I know at first you expect him to be "Subject 2" then when it is revealed that Subject 2 is in fact the daughter of Kate and Michael, you can't help but wonder if Michael is in fact the Werewolf on steroids that is out to get them (after all, they are in a lab, and when they do not reveal what happened to him, you cannot help but wonder if the pulled a Resident Evil move on him and tried creating him as a stronger lycan to bounce back against humanity and the vampires). Also, by leaving him as undiscovered until the very end, it leaves room for imagination and climax in the action. It creates a mystery that goes unsolved, which is what this entire movie is about, waking up and finding Michael. If you analyze the movie instead of expecting to have it explained to you on the screen like many movies do nowadays, you will understand.

    Selene is one sexy vampire.I also love the "Underworld"movies and have never been disappointed in the acting or action.I do hope they bring back Scott Speedman's"blue hybrid"creature.

      Really? You loved all of them? The first was great, the second was ok, the third was horrible and this one is terrible.

      I liked them all! the 3D in this was pretty good, lots of movies come out in 3D and theres nothing actully 3D about it! But this one i would not want to see it in anything but 3D

      Funny thing is.....3D couldn't filter the bad story and make you think something different was happening on the screen!

    Why do they charge an extra $5 bucks for the 3D glasses and then have a box right outside the door for you to drop them in after the movie? Why would I give you back something I just paid for less than 2 hours ago? They should have someone standing there to give you your money back for the glasses after the movie instead of the box.

    UNDERWORLD AWAKENING IS AWESOME!! I have just seen it and I would rate it as on a par with the first movie. In 3-D it is really spectacular, the stunts are unreal, how Kate Beckensale kept from breaking her back and arms is beyond me! This movie is far better than anything else I have seen this last year!

    Nonsense!! Anyone who did not like this movie especially in 3D Just does not get it. If you don't like a movie you should list why you did not like it. These types of reviews are not helpful. Its like saying I did not like the movie because it was only playing at 7 PM. It has nothing to do with the movie itself.
