Underworld SE, not worth it.


as far as the extra film footage goes, i think it has like an additional 13 minutes of footage, which really serves no purpose. i would have been just as happy with the regular version, but nOOoooooo, i gotta have the neat new cover. ah well. i haven't checked out the extra supplememnts yet, but i'm really in it for the movie, and i was not impressed. i've been spoiled by the LotR special editions!

Underworld in any version: not worth it. It is like one of those terribly self-important, overcooked movies made for the Sci-Fi channel, only with a larger budget.

I'll also chime in here and say that I rushed out to buy the director's cut. The reviewer up above was correct, the extra footage adds nothing to the movie. This is definately not worth it. Stick with the original version.

As this is something that only exists on DVD, discussion belongs in the Software forum, where there are several existing threads, including:
