Underworld: Rise of the Lycans Review

I had to see Underworld: Rise of the Lycans the day it came out in the theater.  I hope they don't stop this wonderful saga.  The story was great, it is a prequel to Underworld and Underworld Evolution.  I kept reading reviews that people were so disappointed that Kate Beckinsale wasn't in this movie, and I admit that I was a little disappointed, but you can't have Selene in the prequel which tells the story of the beginning feud between lycans and vampires.  After watching Rise of the Lycans, I was happy that Rhona Mitra played Sonya, she did an awesome job and it makes the story line fall in place with Selene.  There is a lot of action, blood, and violence, but it goes along with the story.  Michael Sheen who plays Lucian is such a great actor and he makes you believe that there really is true love.  All I can say is that if you don't watch all three of these movies starting with Underworld of course, you are missing out.
