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

Once again, Beckinsale brings an impressive physicality and subzero cool to her portrayal of Selene.

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

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.

[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

More aggressively violent and thankfully less mythology-driven than previous installments, Underworld: Awakening is strictly for the converted.
