Underworld: Awakening (2012)

Underworld: Awakening

after the events of Underworld: Evolution (2006), humans discovered the existence of Vampires and Lycans. a war erupted, where "the Infected" had to be purged. Selena the vampire and her lover, a vampire-lycan hybrid named Michael, were captured during the war, used for experiment. after her escape 12-years later, Selena started having strange visions, which she followed with the hope that it will lead her to Michael. but to her horror, it led her to Eve, her daughter with Michael.

as a standalone action flick, Underworld: Awakening (2012) did great. but as a sequel to its previous 3 installments, it was slightly disappointing to have not enough depth in its plot and little character development. Eve being such an interesting and lovable character did not had enough airtime for us to fall head over toes for her, but left hung mid-air. and seeing vampires holding guns just failed miserably to blow my mind away. however, the movie was fast-paced, having absolutely no boring moments, which made it highly entertaining for an action flick. and of course, Selena alone gave us enough actions to glue us to our seats.
