The “Underworld” series isn’t known for being Oscar award-winning or anything, but they do have a big fanbase that allow the franchise to make a lot of money. This entry into “Underworld”, “Underworld Awakening,” isn’t any different.

The film, starring Kate Beckinsale, is only at 33% on Rotten Tomatoes. The audience, however, gave the film a rather high 78% rating, obviously fine with the amount of action and supernatural elements.

The critical response to the film, according to Rotten Tomatoes, is:

“There’s more vapid action and less story in ‘Underworld Awakening’ than previous installments, making the whole affair feel inconsequential.”

Quite a few of the critics’ individual articles seem to reflect the general sentiment, but there are some critics who gave it a tepid-to-mild positive review. One particularly glowing review comes from Joe Leydon of Variety, who said, “Once again, Beckinsale brings an impressive physicality and subzero cool to her portrayal of Selene.”
