"Director Len Wiseman, formerly of the music-video world, is still stuck on music-video logic: Throw in awesome-looking stuff, throw in more awesome-looking stuff, don't worry so much about connecting anything."

"With Underworld and its sequel Underworld: Evolution, Len Wiseman proves that he's more than capable of giving Uwe Boll a run for his money for the title of World's Worst Living Genre Filmmaker."
-- Ethan Alter, FILM JOURNAL INTERNATIONAL
:lol:Quote:
"Underworld: Evolution is what an Uwe Boll movie would look like if Sony's money were behind it rather than German financiers and if it lacked any unintended laughs."

vogueing! http://img141.imageshack.us/img141/2707/vogue7we.gif :lol:Quote:
Underworld Evolution, the inevitable sequel, comes off as a slight improvement over the original, if only because the stake lodged up its hindquarters seems to measure a few millimeters smaller. Still, even a few flashes of goth self-awareness (to say nothing of the arresting sight of Kate Beckinsale in black PVC) can’t excuse returning director Len Wiseman’s needlessly convoluted, one-note delivery. Minus any distinguishable personality, all Underworld Evolution has to offer is hairy folks in tight vinyl, squeaking and vogueing through the outskirts of Prague.

I haven't seen Evolution but Underworld was pretty good.
Not a favorite but not remotely a bad movie.
I wasn't pressed to see Evolution. I'll get it on disc.:ermm:
The internet generation needs to get their heads out of the websites.
OMG!111ROTTEN TOMATOZ GIVEZ IT TEH SUXORZ BALLZORZ!!11!LOWLZ
Who gives a shit?
There's someone on FST that has Ewan McGregor as their favorite actor so treat many opinions with a grain of butt crumbs unless you know ya'll like the same stuff.
if i were to go buy all of the major newspapers print editions that had reviews of underworld evolution and keep my head out of the websites, i reckon i'd STILL HAVE A PILE OF REVIEWS saying it suckored ballorz lowlz.
as for who gives a shit. a loaded question? you could ask the same about anything. who gives a shit whether anyone likes or dislikes anything, who gives a shit whether a movie like this exists or doesn't exist, WHAT'S THE MEANING OF LIFE (and who gives a shit)?
It just seems this is one example where they all got it wrong. Mind you, I haven't seen it but they make it sound like it was slightly better than the first, which to me, sounds like it would be good as shit.Quote:

I have critics like Desson Thompson (Washington Post) and Arch Campbell (local NBC affiliate) that have ripped a buncha shit I like so their opinion means shit to me. IMDB's average ratings are the same (which many like to cite).
That's where I say "who gives a shit?"
The more critics slag a film off,the more I want to see it.
evoloution is a good film,loads of action and blood an guts,what more could you ask for.
oh well, my first response was mainly a reaction to that "faggy critics only hate it because it's what real people like" vibe. that is such a knee-jerk thing to say. uh no, they don't just luv the arty farty flix and hate everything that's real & has computer-grafx monsters. see: MONKEY KONG GETTING 84% POSITIVE REVIEWS on the tomato. for example.
so. how WERE stealth, dukes of hazzard, and deuce bigalow 2? since those were some of the most slagged-off movies of the past year which, according to your equation of "slagged off = awesome," must've made them a high priority on your schedule.Quote:
