I LOVE Kate Beckinsale. She is amazing and the guy who plays Michael was a pretty good choice. As a matter of fact, it seems that all the actors played their characters well.

A guilty pleasure.
Good vampire films are rare.
This one has depth. The mythos around Viktor and the elders was fun.

One of the best Underworld movies. In fact it might be the best. You either hate or love these movies. I love them.

Really enjoyed this movie till the last second. What's fun about it is that there is no good or bad side. The transformation scenes are really well done for a 2003 film. I recommend it to anyone looking for a good action movie.

1st of the Underworld' trilogy.
Not excellent but close to be one of the best Vampires/Lycans movie ever. A pitty that sometime it decline and can look like a B-movie.

Not my kind of vampire movie. Especially the fact that they've given them guns. Its not the worst though. It has the action packed thrill to it though.

Yea I know this review is a lil' late but I got to tell you, I'd rather watch this film ten times in one ago without breaks then sit through 1 film of the terribly Twilight Saga series. PROS: Kate in cat suit, Good acting, cool characterYea I know this review is a lil' late but I got to tell you, I'd rather watch this film ten times in one ago without breaks then sit through 1 film of the terribly Twilight Saga series. PROS: Kate in cat suit, Good acting, cool character design, an interesting intake in the Vampire vs Werewolf phenomenon and did I mention Kate in cat suit?
CONS: Forgettable side characters, occasional effy writing especially in filler scenes, anti-climactic looking Hybrid. Seriously I expected something really awesome and cool but no its just a muscular guy with black skin and eyes, pretty simple and lame… Expand

The devil is in the details and the Underworld series spins a unique web of bloodlines, ancient traditions and old world betrayals. There's a lot in this franchise to sink your teeth into, if you so wish. This first Underworld effort is probably outdone by it's excellent sequel, if only by slim margin. Nether-the-less, the acting is great, the art design and effects are spot on and the action scenes are impressive. The movie has a great balance. Basically speaking, Underworld is the perfect start for a much underrated franchise.… Expand

The third fourth stand-out more than the first two, but here's where it all began. Kate Beckinsale leads the way as Selene, a vampire trying to protect a human being hunted by werewolves. There is plenty of Action going on and while it gets a little dull in the slower parts it picks up towards the end. As mentioned, its not the best in the series but a good place to start as all four films are great! Overall well worth a look … Expand

The acting was good, the story was different and interesting, it was action packed, it was bloody, the practical effects were really well made and it was very entertaining. What's more to like?

Underword is a great mix of action, horror, and good music. Plus, It gets tiring watching old fashioned monster movies where people go "O My F***ing God it's a Vampire or Werewolf.

Plus, It gets tiring watching old fashioned monster movies where people go "O My F***ing God it's a Vampire or Werewolf. This movie ditch's that tired style of monster movie and gives you a high tech modern day monster war where vampires and lycans (werewolves) are duking it out in Matrix style fashion. Add to that Kate Becinsale in tigh leather what could be better in this genre?… Expand

Certainly stylish, and wears its gothic production well, but the constrained budget limits its potential. Action is good, but could be even better. Story actually is quite interesting. Hope Len Wiseman and Co. can grab a much higher budget Certainly stylish, and wears its gothic production well, but the constrained budget limits its potential.

Enticing and absorbing popcorn enterment with a sexy leading lady who puts out a good performance, or at least as good as you can get in the genre.

I thought the movie was great! All the costumes and everything. I just wasn't into how the warewolves looked. I kind of have a different perspective on how they look. But all in all they looked pretty good.

OK, Gone With the Wind it's not -- but stylish yet violent supernatural fun it is, in spades!
