I enjoyed the first movie. It was a great action/horror. Fun, dark, and gritty. Aside from the ending, which wasn't bad, just odd, I really liked Underworld.
The Good:
Sweet effects.
The look and mood of this piece fit well with the other film. It was different but not bad... like I said, it fit well.
The fight scenes were neat.
Kate Beckinsale was good in the film, and being clad in the skin-tight black leather outfit, that's Campbell's soup baby!
The writer/director's concept of a powerful vampire was dead on in my book (well, I might have made him a little more powerful, but the first scene with him was perfect).
The Bad:
I didn't truly care for the plot or the lore (immortals that weren't thoroughly explained).
The characters didn't seem to grow very much in depth in this film number 2.
It felt like something was about to happen all the time, but nothing ever really did.
Overall: Not bad overall. Not great, but not bad. Definately a fun watch, The Mummy Returns if you replace the comedy with some twilight undeath.
