Ultraviolet
I really wanted to see this flick when it hit the theaters, but never made it out. I picked it up after it was released, and watched the director’s cut. I’d heard both good and bad things about this, but since Milla Jovovich was the star, I had to watch it. I’ve loved her in The Fifth Element and the original Resident Evil. So, I plopped down this afternoon, tossed the DVD into the player, and fired it up. It was good eye candy. Like my recent review of Brokeback Mountain, it lacked much plot. But, action flicks often require a more robust suspension of disbelief, and Ultraviolet certainly was in this category. The effects were okay and the action was good, in a John Woo kind of way. If it comes on TV, check it out.
