direct-to-video quality movie
i was glad when this movie was finally over. this is the worst in the underworld series. the two main actors were awful, very unlikeable and lacks charisma. the first half of the movie was dull and they should have compacted it into a five...

Why the Rehash?!
I was about 1/4 through this film when I realized that I already knew the main story, because it's been explained to us in the first Underworld movie. WTF! If we all know the story, then what's the point of making it last an hour and a ha...

No particularly good or that bad.
Underworld: Rise of the Lycans is the third installment of films in the Underworld series. It is a prequel set prior to 'Underworld' and 'Underworld: Evolution'. The prequel traces the origins of the centuries-old blood feud between the va...

The Wolves have come to feast
The epic battle between Werewolves and Vampires are brought to life yet once again in this supposed prequel to the Underworld movies. First of all I really thought we had seen enough Underworld movies when Evolution came out. But then here...

Underworld: Rise of the Lycans Quick Review
Tired prequel to the underworld series. Knowing what's going to happen doesn't make this any better. A bunch of hack n slash vampire vs. werewolf fights does not a movie make.

Underworld: Rise of the Lycans Quick Review
While intially I thought this was a harmless mixed bag prequel,after letting it set in over night, I found this move to be nothing but dumb bloody fluff that could easily be forgotten in a few hours after viewing it.

EXCELLENT HORROR MOVIE
by T. MILES (PORT ARTHUR, TEXAS)
THIS WAS A GOOD HORROR MOVIE, FILLED WITH BETRAYAL, ROMANCE, AND REVENGE. THE CAST WAS EXCELLENT. MICHAEL SHEEN WAS AWESOME!!! BILL NIGHY'S CHARACTER WAS DEEP AND WICKEN.
5/5
Rise of the Lycans
by J. Lambert (Tampa Bay, FL USA)
This movie is the prequel to the the other Underworld films and ties everything into one coherent series. Most of the original actors are back and we learn how Lucian became so powerful. A must see and have for anyone that has seen or is collecting the other two films. Rona Mitra gives a great performance as the Vampire daughter of the high elder who falls for the Lycan Lucian. *****

SLOWEST SHIPPING ON RECORD-STILL NOT RECEIVED!
by S. Jones (worthington, oh United States)
THIS IS RIDICULOUS! OVER 6-8 WEEKS SINCE I ORDERED THIS AND I STILL HAVE NOT RECEIVED IT! SAVE YOUR MONEY AND SPARE YOUR PATIENCE BY ORDERING FROM SOMEONE ELSE! MAKES NO SENSE THAT I AM STILL WAITING SO I WILL BE ASKING FOR A FULL REFUND!
4/5
Russ' Lycan Review
by Russell M. Sloan (Columbus, OH)
A good buy, not a great buy. Good story, but you really miss Seline (Kate Beckinsale):( Kate is why most of us started watching the Underworld series, but she leaves us for this one so we can get some history. BOOOOHHHH! A descent movie, will give a B+. Comparible to the 1st, not quite as good, definitely not as good as 2nd (Evolution).
Underworld: Rise of the Lycans [Blu-ray] Summary
underworld: Rise Of The Lycans
Delves Into The Origins Of The Centuries-old Blood Feud Between The Aristocratic Vampires, Known As Death Dealers, And The Barbaric Lycans (werewolves). A Young Lycan, Lucian (michael Sheen), Emerges As A Powerful Leader Who Rallies The Werewolves To Rise Up Against Viktor (bill Nighy), The Cruel Vampire King Who Has Persecuted Them For Hundreds Of Years. Lucian Is Joined By His Secret Lover, The Beautiful Vampire Sonja (rhona Mitra), In His Battle To Free The Lycans From Their Brutal Enslavement.
This prequel to Len Wiseman’s
Underworld
and
Underworld: Evolution
is distinctively different, especially minus the nimble vampire warrior star, Selene (Kate Beckinsale).
Underworld: Rise of the Lycans
takes its cues from the vampire/werewolf battles that occur in the other films, but director Patrick Tatopoulos focuses here on the young werewolf Lucian's (Michael Sheen) rise to leadership.
Rise of the Lycans
is set mostly within the walls of vampire lord Viktor’s (Bill Nighy) castle, so the film’s silver, black, and blue palette reflects a world happening under moonlight. From the outset, when Viktor brings Lucian, the first werewolf, into the world, this villainous bloodsucker’s daughter, Sonja (Rhona Mitra), is smitten with Lucian’s hairy appearance and instinctual intelligence. As years pass, Lucian grows tired of watching his race suffer slavery and imprisonment, and recruits a human named Raze (Kevin Grevioux) to assist rebellion. This archetypal plot is not so riveting, and what carries
Underworld: Rise of the Lycans
are the battle scenes between vampires and werewolves, which are excitingly fast-paced and brutal. The whole film adopts a medieval battlefield aesthetic that carries an otherwise clichéd story about illicit love and freedom fighting. Some characters, like the traitor vampire Tannis (Steven Mackintosh), also intrigues throughout, as one guesses who he will ally with.
Underworld: Rise of the Lycans
may not be the finest film in the werewolf and vampire archives independently, but its mixed monstrosity makes it unique and entertaining, especially on a big screen.
