Underworld Evolution - Dir: Len Wiseman

This is the sequel to the werewolves versus dracula battle fest starring Kate Beckinsale. There's no denying that she looks good in a skin tight PVC cat suit but really that's the only straightforward thing in this movie. For the first hour at least you are wondering what is going on, the story is so complicated. The director has recently completed Die Hard 4.0 which was an action fest and although this movie has it's moments, it is so dark on screen it's hard to appreciate them. Ultimately pretty average. This is a JM THUMBS DOWN.

Die Hard 4.0 - Dir: Len Wiseman

Best movie of the year so far without doubt. This is an old school action movie and vintage John Maclane. Nice plot revolving around hackers taking the US economy down, with Bruce Willis in the wrong place at the right time. Funny but not cheesy in places, good direction from the director of Underworld, and some money shot action scenes. One in particular near the end with a plane and freeway is very reminiscent of True Lies. This is most definitely a JM RECOMMENDS.
