Mike's Daily Blog

So I saw Rise of the Lycans tonight for the second time (thank you Chris Fleming for finally paying for something…lol) and I just had to post a blog about it.  I really, really liked this film.  It’s very rare I see a movie twice in the theater but no one in the group tonight had seen it and I really liked it when I saw it a couple weeks and I made Chris pay my way so I was good.  I thought Lucian was a wonderfully complex and conflicted character, which when mixed together in the right combination, makes for a riveting and sexy vibe that is fun to watch.  The prison scenes when he’s mostly shirtless are way hot.    I like how the story lines compliment each other and I love how the this prequel bookends right up to the start of the first Underworld.  The action and fight scenes are a little graphic but after all we are dealing with two of the most sinister dark world species:  vampires and werewolves.  Finally, honorable mention has to go to the character of Victor.  Oh my gosh!  His character is both intimidating and powerful…and ruthless.  His iron-fisted lordship over the coven is as good and convincing a performance as Michael Corleone in the Godfather II.  This films gets an A from me and if you haven’t seen it yet and are looking for something fun to do this weekend, you should definitely check it out.
