I had serious doubts about this movie. I thought for sure that the movie was going to be horribly bad because it didn’t have Kate Beckinsale and it was being directed by a first-time director. But I was wrong, the movie is actually pretty good and for the most part holds its own when compared to the other two Underworld movies.Rhona Mitra does a great job with the lead role. She has proven herself to be a great actress even though in the past she has chosen to star in some pretty bad movies (Doomsday, Beowulf, Skinwalkers). Michael Sheen also did a great job playing Lucian, though I was not a fan of his outfits in the movie.
First time director Patrick Tatopoulos did a much better job than I expected. His background is in special effects and art direction. Usually when an art director steps behind the camera to direct, it all goes horribly wrong (like Janusz Kaminski doing Lost Souls or David Goyer doing The Unborn).
If you like Underworld, then you naturally have to see this prequel.
Rating: 8 out of 10
Brendan Frasier has solidified himself in my mind as one of the worst actors of our generation. He knows he is such a bad actor that he has now resorted to only acting in family-friendly films. He seemed like a hard-working actor in his early years but lately he just seems like he’s given up. In my opinion, he’s more about getting a quick paycheck then by mastering his craft and becoming a great actor.
If this movie hadn’t been created in 3-D then it would have gone straight to DVD and to the bargain bin faster than a sequel to Ben Affleck’s Gigli. The movie is everything you would expect: poorly written, poorly acted, ridiculous storyline and incompetent directing. But it’s still a fun romp of a horror movie. And the director definitely squeezed out every type of death that could lend itself to three dimensions. Pickaxe murders, squirting blood, eye popping out, decapitated heads sliding down a shovel towards the audience. This movie also contains the longest full-frontal nude scene that I think I’ve ever seen in a “R” rated film. I’m really not sure how they avoided the NC-17 rating.
This is Clint at his best. They really should have named the film “Dirty Harry: The Retirement Years”. The movie is brilliantly written and plays out like a mix of the movies “Colors” and “As Good as it Gets” (what an unlikely combo). 
This movie would have been better off had it not been born. David Goyer, the director of this film, is a brilliant writer. That where it stops though, because his directing skills are worse than an infant with a home video camera. Don't get me wrong. The cinetography was good, the actors did fine, it's just that Mr. Goyer doesn't have the knack to put all of the different elements together to make a great, engaging movie.
This is a beautiful movie that makes you think about life and death by telling the story of a man who lives life backwards. Though the plot is just a nifty trick to make a insightful movie more intriguing, it also allows the director David Fincher to display some cutting edge technology capabilities by superimposing Brad Pitt's face onto a little person.
This movie had a lot of potential. The comic artist, writer and inspiration behind "300" and "Sin City". You'd think it would at least be as good as those films. But you would be seriously wrong. The first time director Frank Miller completely misses the mark with this movie that just goes to show that some people should just stick with what they're good at.
Don't listen to the title. If someone asks you if you want to see this movie, don't be a yes man, just say NO! I fondly refer to this movie as Liar Liar 2. It's the same story, except that instead of telling the truth, Jim Carrey has to say yes to everything. Problem is that the jokes are same in Yes Man as they are in Liar Liar, except the second time around it's not as entertaining.
Bedtime Stories is a great movie for 10-year-old boys. If you're not 10 and your not a boy, sorry, this film is ridiculously stupid. Adam Sandler plays the same character he always plays, a dim-witted loser whose jokes are only laughed at by school-age children. It's same character we saw in Billy Madison, Happy Gilmore, The Waterboy, 50 First Dates, Mr. Deeds, Little Nicky, Big Daddy, The Wedding Singer and Airheads. Do you see the trend yet?
