What a waste of my time!!!

I wanted to like it more than I actually did... But much of the humor totally escaped me and I walked out only mildly impressed.

By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes

The all too common trait of "style over substance" strikes again. Except this time there is absolutely no substance in what is an instantly forgettable generic plot. But I'll be damned, what a euphorically surreal ride this was! I'm certain my eyes were bleeding afterwards. A woman infected with a vampiric disease plans to overthrow a futuristic government before her kind are exterminated. How does she do it? Advanced martial arts, obviously! She doesn't just tackle twenty armed individuals atop an imposing needle skyscraper. Oh no, she singlehandedly wrecks an entire army of seven hundred, with just a sword and a plethora of firearms. Only director Wimmer could capture the technique of "Gun Fu" whilst creating a vividly imaginative dystopian environment. Alas, the film is awful. There's no escaping this entirely subjective view. Anyone who watches this will immediately feel nauseated by the obnoxious style Wimmer forces upon us. From low octane inexplicable action sequences to visual effects resembling a retro PlayStation game. The exaggerative aesthetic appeal masquerades a deceptively thin plot with minimal character development and a basic narrative structure. Action, exposition, action, exposition, final showdown, the end. The acting was bland and monotonous, aside from Jovovich who is always a pleasure to watch...and her stomach, where every single frame resembled Darude's 'Sandstorm' music video. Yet, somehow beneath my thick film critiquing skin, I succumbed to the absurdity. Motorcycling through a helicopter mid-air, flaming sword fight, constant hair and clothing colour transitions for no apparent reason, gravity belt for both herself and the motorcycle, "3D me" and technology so outrageously unique that my eyes glistened with delight. Possibly the weirdest film experience ever. So visually blinding, that you begin to question if the horrific style was actually on purpose. Did I really witness a hidden stylised masterpiece? No, don't be stupid. Forgettable and laughably executed. Shame, Jovovich deserves better...

A beautiful hemophage infected with a virus that gives her superhuman powers has to protect a boy in a futuristic world, who is thought to be carrying antigens that would destroy all hemophages. If you asked me about Ultraviolet and what i thought about it back in 2006 or 2007 i would have told you that it's a great movie but now after seeing it a couple of times i can see the many problems that it faces from the laughable special effects that look like they came out of a 1983 film to the over the top action, the cheesy acting and the mediocre villains plus the story isn't that good either but as a movie it does what it was meant to do pretty well because if you want to see Milla Jovovich kicking the sh*t out of people for about 1 hour and 30 minutes you are going to get that plus the Opening Titles weren't that bad although they did remind me of Spider-Man a bit. Ultraviolet is like Batman and Robin you know it's bad and dumb and the characters are one note but you enjoy watching it for it's campy side and weird action sequences because if there are people who found Catwoman good then there are people out there as well that found something good about this film and in a way it does it's job perfectly for what it was meant to be. (8/10)

I am at a loss for words.. Direction is pretty nice, screenplay very well and also a good story- line. Acting is thrilling to the extreme.. Hats off to Jovovich. Her iconic performance as Violet will someday enter history books. Its one of her illustrious heroine performances that I will never forget.. Jovovich plays a free spirited heroine who will stop at nothing to protect a child for whom she cares. I cried hysterically towards the end. Also the punch dialogues are executed in a state-of-the-art manner by Jovovich. In the end, we feel that we have been avenged.. A marvellous classic and the best classic action movie I've ever seen. Nowadays astounding action movies like this are rare. Please, do not miss this exotic gem........

Right from the start, I liked this film! First of all, the illustrations at the beginning have the quality of DC 's "Batman - The Dark Knight" by Frank Miller and Klaus Janson. The atmosphere reminds me a bit of "Sin City". The action and martial arts scenes are a combination of "The Matrix" and "Equilibrium" (gunkata)! Obviously, this being a Milla Jovovich film, also means that she frequently changes her outfit. Apparently, all this combined inspired the makers to step up a little on the special effects. In any of the above-mentioned films, that might have looked over the top or even ridiculous, but in this film I liked it! I would easily have given this film a higher mark, if the storyline had been less predictable.
