The movie is crap. I've heard some not-so-good things about the transfer too.

Rise of the Lycans has the most action and politics of the 3. So if you want to see romance, huge battles and politics, this is your movie. Good set-up for the other two, flows well.

I am going to watch this again movie because I am on the side of those who think the movie is crap. In fact, RoL is in my to sell pile.

If you like the first two give it a chance..its worth it.

This!

The transfer's real problem is it's over filtered with blue hues.

This is one of those movies and franchises, that divides people right down the middle. You either like it, or you don't. Personally, I thought this movie ok. Could it have been better...sure! Did it suck, I didn't think so. Being a fan of the franchise, I had to see it. Liked it enough that I knew when it was released on BD, I'd get it, and not regret it. Then again, I don't really buy a movie without having seen it first!

MyBlu-rayBrotherEd · 09-08-2009, 01:18 AM

It was a good movie IMO, just different from the other two and sadly no Kate. Watch it and judge for yourself wether on not to keep it.

Blu Myers · 09-08-2009, 01:20 AM

I liked it. One of the worst transfers I own on blu-ray though...reaaallllly grainy, and not the good kind of grain.

Coming from the guy with the following movies?

Dog Soldiers
Gangs of New York
Gladiator
Planet of the Apes (2001)
Predator
Species
Terminator 2: Judgment Day

Sorry about this part, I normally hate to do this.... but you own a 42" 480P extended definition plasma, 32" LCD and a Home Theater in a Box. Not to be a jerk but that's hardly is what I would call proper reviewing equipment.

PS: Grain is a GOOD thing, it's holds image detail

Mr.White · 09-08-2009, 01:20 AM

The first one is the only good one!

yeah, I actually didn't see it nor cared to till I saw it was on demand and actually liked it. Its just different from the other two movies.

KilloWertz · 09-08-2009, 01:25 AM

Ok, to get an honest short review. If you are a fan of the Underworld series, you will enjoy the movie. The only reason not to is if you only liked Underworld because of Kate Beckinsale or you don't like this type of movie. I love Kate as much as the next person, but her absence in this was because it was a prequel. Also, the transfer was fine. I didn't notice any major problems with it. It was on par with the other two Underworld movies in PQ, with maybe the first one being a little better overall.

BTW, love the -1 you put in there, shadblz.

geneboi · 09-08-2009, 01:26 AM

Lord_Stewie · 09-08-2009, 01:16 AM

Reviews Are Biased. Since Kate wasn't in the movie.

It was a good movie but not great for someone who is a hardcore Kate fan.
