Review of Ultraviolet (2006) by Phila. — 05 Apr 2006
This film is NOT the worst film ever "created" that honor rightfully belongs to another piece of cinematic bilge entitled "Cabin Boy". That being said, this movie could have been as good as Aeonflux if the writer had not grafted a chick-flick into the middle of what should have been a pure sci-fi action movie.
I'm OK with two-dimension characters and pointless violence, really I am. Note to writers: Don't feel compelled by some unfathomable need to please the media critics by making a movie with a "message".
Just make an entertaining movie and stick to the basics. (See Quintin for details) If I wanted to see a chick-flick I'd have gone to one, but when you advertise a movie like Sony did Ultarviolet as ultraviolent, then that's what I expect.
In the trailer I saw, the child was not shown nor mentioned once. That's false advertising and that's unforgivable. Had it not been for my compulsive obsession with Milla, this movie would have gotten an even lower score.
But I will still buy the DVD and watch it again...mute on.
