I wasn't thrilled about another Underworld movie. I really dislike Kate Beckinsale. I don't know WHY I really dislike her but I do.

Anyway, When they announced Underworld: Awakening, I had NO intentions in seeing it... EVER!. My husband on the other hand is a HUGE lover of the Underworld movies (except Rise of the Lycans) and insisted we see it.

It wasn't all bad. I felt lost in the beginning... then it all came together... and then in the end... felt COMPLETELY unfinished which usually means another movie is coming... if not... then that was the stupidest ending EVER. But with the popularity of the Underworld franchise, I'd say another Underworld is highly likely.

What can you expect from Awakening? About the same as you could from ANY of the other Underworld's in the series... minus the love/sex story which is replaced with a MATERNAL story instead. That... plus one huge fucking Lycan.

Won't really give it away... I don't do the SPOILER thing... so if you are a fan of Underworld (especially the first 2), Awakening is a MUST see. If you haven't see the first 3 Underworld movies... see them first THEN watch Awakening.

As a movie in general, it is a little confusing, but once you put the pieces together, Underworld Awakening is just about the same as the first 2 of the Underworld Series... which ain't half bad for the 4th Underworld movie.
