Underworld: Rise of the Lycans - Widescreen Dubbed Subtitle AC3

Model: 27289
SKU: 9288585
UPC: 043396272897
The Underworld series gets the prequel treatment with this third outing that fleshes out the story of the ancient war between the vampiric Death Dealers and their wolfman counterparts, the Lycans. F/X technician Patrick Tatopoulos (Godzilla, Independence Day) steps out of the effects lab and into the director's chair with this entry, which sees stars Bill Nighy returning as Viktor, the king of his vampire clan and father to Sonja (Rhona Mitra), a free-minded heir who tests her parent by heading outside of their castle's borders and doing battle with the ravenous werewolves of the surrounding area. Sonja also has a secret love affair with Lucian (Michael Sheen), the first of the Lycans, a race of lycanthropes who were bred by the vampires to be slaves and protectors to the bloodsucking clan. As the news of their love spreads to Viktor, ranks of the vampire elite help Lucian escape, leading to a revolution of the Lycans against their masters and setting up the mythology of the later latexed adventures featured in Len Wiseman's two previous films. ~ Jeremy Wheeler, Rovi

The story is a bit trite, but it still satisfies the watcher that likes the action-filled femme-fatale vampire flicks.

I was expecting it to be as good as the previous movies. I was very disappointed. Great set design and lighting. The characters were boring and the movie was not entertaining.

What's not so great: Not a thing!
Finally being a HUGE fan of the first two installments, there is something on film to let me know it all began instead of a few flashback in the first 2 films. One of my favorite sequels of all time. Watch this!

What's great about it: Ties in perfectly with the first two!
What's not so great: Couldn't find anything.
My wife and I love these movies. At first, watching the trailer, I thought that Rhona Mitra was replacing Kate Beckensale (because they look a like). Boy was I wrong! I'm not going to spoil it, but Rhona Mitra does a great job and Kate Beckensale is in the movie. This is probably one of the best trilogies I've ever seen! This one literally takes you to the opening scene of the first one. I'm not saying another word, because I'm trying not to spoil it for you. Just get it! Trust me! I highly recommend! And, if you haven't seen the first two, watch this one first, then the other two. This is the perfect prequel!

What's great about it: Gore, action
What's not so great: No Kate Beckinsale
A prequel to Underworld that explains the ongoing war between the Lycans and Vampires. Awesome story line and good acting. Glad I watched this before getting Underworld and Revolutions. One of my favorite trilogies.

What's great about it: Finally getting my questions answered
What's not so great: Too short
Great story, love Luciens' character, always had alot of questions from just watching Underworld, and Underworld Evolution but it finally explains the whole story, I too would love Lucien to have his own sequel, great special effects, anyone who loved the first two would treasure this one. Hope theres' more to come!!! Big Fan!!!!

What's great about it: Lucient is back, good story, provides history of characters, filming, and great action
What's not so great: That this is the last for the franchise.
My favorite anti hero ever is Lucient in the first Underworld. A tragic hero who came to terms regarding his slavery but is awakened by unholy union with a vampire. I thought it was a great film and I was hoping to see Lucient in his own movie. Action packed and you got to see answers from questions from the original two films. This was probably the best of the three to me. I hope they make one more prequel movie with Lucient, when he finally makes the pact and goes into hiding.
