Ultraviolet (Unrated Extended Cut)

This movie is terrible. I liked Jovovich a lot in the 5th Element, and I generally like this genre, so I had some hopes that this movie would at least be entertaining. But the acting is wooden, the dialogue is tortured and the plot is frankly just derivative crap. It's obvious that the writing here was sub-par and even the action doesn't cover that. The first line is "My name is Violet and I was born into a world you may not understand" and there's a reason we don't understand it--it makes very little sense, especially as it is told in this movie. And frankly it's impossible to care enough to try. Why is her superpower (aside from some generic martial arts) apparently her ability to change the colour of her clothes and hair? I know she worked/works as a model in real life but it's hardly initimidating to be attacked by fashion. Also, the computer generated special effects are pretty sub-par, despite what the people marketing the movie will try to tell you about it being in the league of Skycaptain and the World of Tomorrow. It's very hard to suspend your disbelief that she is really riding her motorcycle around on the roof when you can clearly see she is not. They would have done better to rely on more stunt people than software here. Probably men and some women can enjoy parts of this movie purely because of Jovovich running around in skimpy outfits, but any appeal that has will be dampened by the constant insults to your intelligence and the jarring, ridiculous lines she has to deliver. Don't bother with this one.

A virus called HGV AKA Hemoglophagic Virus that was meant to be contained spread and started infecting people, causing them to develop fangs and better hearing and eyesight. But a shortened lifespan of 12 years. These people have been labelled vampires and a corrupt high-ranking official Dexus will stop at nothing in having them all eradicated. The Hemophages have united in rebelling against the human government that wishes to wipe them out to extinction. Among them is a woman Violet who was forced to undergo numerous experiments because of the disease. Dexus has created a weapon designed to obliterate every Hemophage from the face of the earth but Violet gets into the Archministry and nabs it with orders from Nerva to destroy the bomb. Out of curiosity, she opens up the top secret package and finds out it holds a human boy called Six. Violet takes off, unwilling to hand him over to her people or to Dexus who claims to be the child's father. A blood war between the humans and Hemophages has begun!

The 3D special effects used here in Ultraviolet were extraordinary and very dazzling! I even loved the opening credits that portrayed Violet in comic book covers like those from the DC/Marvel comics! The artwork was just stunning!

Milla Jovovich did an impressive job in playing her character Violet throughout the film. She has also demonstrated the women are equally strong fighters as men in both movies and real life. Violet could be looked up to as a superhero even though she doesn't possess any special powers. The protagonist uses either her bare hands or weaponry in combat. Hemophages aren't considered superhuman.

One thing I couldn't comprehend was how could a digitally produced hologram of Violet drive a car up to Dexus when the real Violet was hiding with Six atop a skyscraper from a distance? It just didn't make any sense!
