Underworld: Awakening is essentially just a non-stop adrenaline-fueled action pic from start to finish. Filled with loads of gore, great action sequences, an uber-Lycan, and a hot Kate Beckinsale in more tight-fitted clothing, this all adds to it being one of the far more entertaining additions to the series. I highly recommend this if you're a fan or if you just want an all-around great popcorn flick.
Since the first film in 2003, the Underworld series has been known for their great blend of action and horror and have (for the most part) kept up that tradition with its sequels. Although I still enjoyed the previous installments, they just didn’t seem to fully offer the high octane entertainment that was delivered in the first. With the second being more of an adventure-romance and the third being a period piece, which had its moments, but was 
ultimately disappointing in certain aspects (for me anyway), so I didn’t exactly go into this fourth with high expectations. To my surprise, not only did it recapture some of the great action that was seemingly absent in the past sequels, but it kicked it up a notch and essentially delivered a non-stop pure adrenaline-fueled popcorn flick!
