Strengths
Kate Beckinsale ...the skin tight leather/latex lady..makes us to watch...She is glorious and gorgeous in the leather costumes....sexy vampire....Kate jumps, leaps,fights,kicks ass...sounds more confident and mature in Selene role..her stunts are quite dashing and daring...emotes well in the scenes with Eve.those who love Kate and her dare devil stunts ..will sure lap up this underworld franchise...she is the soul and heart of the movie .other cast does their job quite good.
Photography is great..with some stunning visuals. Dark movie color tone suits the mood..best part of the photography when watched in 3D are action sequences...Music with some rock band and Evanasence at the end credits are noteworthy...sound editing is good ...Directors hope ..this part needs more of action...mmm!!yes..their significance goes to the action part and the movies pace..they have succeeded in bringing out .Action scenes are splendid.. feels this franchise had superb & stunning action then previous ones....screenplay has its own surprise too...
Weakness
The movie doesn't have a solid story line..it seems Len Wisemen has purposefully dragged it... wafer-thin story.. it seems gets routine..The movie is very short (1 hr 28min) couldn't do justice to the story department...all other previous part( 2 sequel and 1 prequel) had better story and execution... humor in the dialogues could have add some pep to the movie...some actors are wooden and lazy.
Still..the movie is a smart addition to franchise..Do you love 'blood'y action,guns,vampires,werewolves, fights..chases..and obviously the hot leather beauty Kate..then go for it...waiting to see the next sequel soon with Kate as Selene..
Verdict: 5.5/10(1.5for Kate Beckinsale, 1 for photography, 1 for sound/music, 1 for action and 1 for screenplay)
Movie canvas Punch: Underworld Awakening...action guaranteed..

Good movie with full of action. Watching 3D would be a better option. Those who cannot understand fluent English should go for the dubbed Hindi version. Both Kate Beckinsale and the girl playing her daughter character have done excellent work with awesome action scenes which has scenes of blood sucking vampires and horrifying attacks by the lycans. .
