Storyline

- TriviaAlthough the film includes flashback footage of Bill Nighy, this is the first Underworld film not to feature new performances by Nighy, Michael Sheen, or Brian Steele.
- Goofs(at around 1h 6 mins) When Det. Sebastian is watching the security videos, we see a shot of Dr. Lane taking Eve down a hallway, with the security camera preceding them down the hall (moving with them), rather than panning to follow them as would be expected from a fixed-position camera.
- Quotes
Eve: I dreamt of the day we would meet. Like a silly little girl. You're as cold as one already dead.
Selene: Yesterday, I was with your father. He was only a little further away from than you are now. I went to sleep. And when I awoke the next day, I learned that, overnight, 12 years had passed. And instead of the only man I ever loved, there stood a girl with his eyes. My heart is not cold. It's broken.

The story was, quite simply, lacking. It's difficult to explain this film's shortcomings without spoiling it, but, to say the least, they ignored elements that could have made a good movie and skipped to rather simple, unsatisfying plot devices. This movie was also absurdly short, testifying to its lack of content.
In the end, it just didn't feel like Underworld. I would compare this to the way I felt about The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor, Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, and Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides - just an out of place fourth movie of a series. I really wanted it to be good, but it just wasn't.
