Moonlight Movie Review

Dunya says: Like, good day to all. We are here talking about the movie "Underworld".

Moonslight says: Greetings to all....Yes, my dear sister and I are here together...

Dunya says: I have to say I did enjoy the effects the most. The story line was hard to get, but I like that in a movie. For a movie maker, that means more money in pocket, for the watcher to come and see again.

Moonslight says: Underworld....I must first say I was not impressed with this one. There was a lot of anticipation and quite a bit of let down. I will agree with you on a few of the special effects, but not all. I also have to say that the story line was hard to follow.....

Dunya says: Yes but after a few times you get it, took 4 for me, LOL

Moonslight says: Well, I am sorry to say I would not watch it again as I had a hard enough time watching it all the way through the first time. The opening screen is probably the best part of the whole thing.

Dunya says: I do agree with that. To fall from a tall building and land on your feet upright, well as for the movies out there in the past on werewolves, the effects were much better then most I have seen up to now.

Moonslight says: Yes, the werewolf makeup, and transition was done very well. Well, our four-legged animals usually do....That was about the only effects I found new and interesting.

Dunya says: I liked Kraven a lot.

Moonslight says: Why? He was weak..

Dunya says: Although he was not as strong a creature as I would have liked him to be. Yes, he was weak.

Moonslight says: He played both sides to benefit himself in title. He wanted to be the ruler of all.

Dunya says: Yes he did..

Moonslight says: Once again, here we are with a power struggle...One person to "rule" over all others...Of the same kind or no.

Dunya says: They didn't want them to breed together. A blending was wrong, and the vampires would lose there rule over the lycans.

Moonslight says: Once again, trying to decide for others....

Dunya says: But in the end I liked the mix.

Moonslight says: There should not have to be a "ruler"....Why can't everyone find differences and likes amongst themselves, and go from there?

Dunya says: Perhaps if they had ended it with them winning..

Moonslight says: Well, that is something that left quite a bit to be desired....What is with that bluish-purple color? That is just it though...There really was no end aside from Viktor's. The mix has become....She gained her "revenge" for her family....She saved the hero...etc etc..But then....Nothing..

Dunya says: Yeah, typical of horror movies. Anyway, I wish there had been more to it, than ending it, instead of leaving it open to do another movie. I think Hollywood messes with too many good movies sometimes.

Moonslight says: Well, I can understand leaving the end open...For something else perhaps...But what really? The other ancients to be awakened? For what? To carry on a blood bath? How droll..Yes, I agree there. There is not enough imagination...They have to rely on others that have gone in the past.

Dunya says: Yeah, in some way there would be hell to pay.. But what if not? The other elder wakes to find one elder has run off, the other one is dead. And the lycans have mixed with the vampires. What's to come?

Moonslight says: But...Times change..They have to be brought in with that kind of understanding.

Dunya says: Perhaps he will understand and forgive, nothing further to do. Lol :o)

Moonslight says: Well, there would be less story line then....

Dunya says: Sure would..Then there would be less people like you to bore..Lol :o)

Moonslight says: LOL ha ha ...Very funny :o) And little miss tattle tail: What was her role, really? Aside from drooling around every corner..

Dunya says: Nothing really, Just a beauty blonde with fangs to bring a rise out of young men wanting to see a vamp like her, I guess. Don't all vampire movies need a beauty with fangs?

Moonslight says: Oh please...She thought she was more deserving of Kraven.....I don't know why ANYONE would want him. Beauty....Fangs yes....But a drooling, little tattle tail....NO. The "house" reminded me of nothing but a bunch of groupies hanging around, and those IV's in Victor's back....Now REALLY..Reminiscent of Matrix....Once again proving they could not think on their own.

Dunya says: Reminded me of a bunch of movies I have seen where there are havens for vampires, like in "Queen of the Dammed" The bar ..

Moonslight says: Come up with something new..Yes.....underground bar, same thing, yeah. Some punk hangout.

Dunya says: Right.

Moonslight says: Some little place in a dark corner of a little town no one goes near at night.

Dunya says: Right..In every horror writer's books. Even one of mine. Only thing that movie was missing was the fog and mist.

Moonslight says: Well, there was a little at the beginning. That was one thing - The opening had not one ounce of reality.....When she was perched on top of the building...Looking down at the passers by and knowing there were "others" mixed in...

Dunya says: I give this movie a 3 stars out of 5. How about you?

Moonslight says: 3???

Dunya says: Hehehe :o)

Moonslight says: I am sorry, but a 1 is the best I can do..

Dunya says: You are hard to please..But with every coming year, a better movie comes up that blows us away.

Moonslight says: Yes, when it comes to going to the movies, or renting or buying even...I want something that will be challenging, or at the very least, interesting to watch....I just don't find that in this one. Yes, there will be some that will...

Dunya says: And soon, we shall have some more to go over :o)

Moonslight says: Well, I cannot wait....

Dunya says: Me either.

Moonslight says: It is nice to see one side and also the other....To share it with all...

Dunya says: Right..

Moonslight says: Well, it seems we have been round "Underworld" for all to see.....Whether good or bad, you at least have two opinions to look at and decide upon.....Have a look for yourselves and see whose side you agree or disagree with....

Dunya says: I have added a review on the story line , decide for yourself to watch or not to watch.

Moonslight says: Until next time.....Enjoy!

Dunya says: Blessed be :o)
