Roger Moore / Dallas Morning News

Pitiless, puerile, pointless and perfunctory - and those are just the "P's"

Joe Leydon / Variety
Jan 23, 2012
Once again, Beckinsale brings an impressive physicality and subzero cool to her portrayal of Selene.

Laremy Legel / Film.com

Kate Beckinsale's "Selene" remains one-note, but it's a wildly entertaining note.

Andy Webster / New York Times
Jan 22, 2012
The combat quotient, to the movie's credit, is way up, with narrative folderol kept to a minimum.

Tom Russo / Boston Globe
Jan 21, 2012
The most generic entry of the bunch.

David Hiltbrand / Philadelphia Inquirer
Jan 21, 2012
There's not much to this movie beyond a slick procession of dark, gleaming violence.

Glenn Whipp / Los Angeles Times
Jan 21, 2012
A brisk creature-feature that ditches the series' dreary mythology in favor of a more direct, action-oriented approach.

Peter Howell / Toronto Star
Jan 21, 2012
Beckinsale's Selene is back with a vengeance, that famous black catsuit and two fully cocked pistols, having wisely sat out the wretched third installment of the franchise. Don't expect much more than this.

Nick Pinkerton / Village Voice
Jan 20, 2012
The entire production is single-mindedly, earnestly devoted to serving up feats of BADASS, and it succeeds in this devotion to the exclusion of everything else.

Joe Neumaier / New York Daily News
Jan 20, 2012
[The] latest, dreadful entry in the vampires-battling-werewolves franchise.

Richard Corliss / TIME Magazine
Jan 20, 2012
Of all the movies whose makers designate them as crap by not screening them in advance for critics, forcing me to go to a multiplex in vampire hours and write a review in a sour overnight stupor, Underworld Awakening is one of the best.

Frank Scheck / Hollywood Reporter
Jan 20, 2012
More aggressively violent and thankfully less mythology-driven than previous installments, Underworld: Awakening is strictly for the converted.
