It's not porn, it's pretty.<img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f600.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":D" title="Big grin    :D"  data-smilie="8"data-shortname=":D" />The story is pretty thin and a lot of the beats are just missed or don't make a lot of sense -- why does dropping through a hole in the floor make werewolves lose track of you? How come Lucian can run after a car and catch up with it the first time but the second time he just says, "Ah, heck," and turns away? What happened to those silver nitrate bullets? How did the vampires stay on top of the werewolves all these years?And why oh why did our, er, hero, just sort of gently BOUNCE off the pillar when Victor hurls him through the air?Some of the wirework was very good, I thought. I thought Kate sold her moves with real acting and the guy playing Victor was very good as well. I'm glad they didn't overplay the emotion between the two leads -- no cheesy sex scene, hurrah!We watched it on DVD and it didn't hold up very well, however. A few good bits but overall a very flawed film.Still, worth a check if you like fight scenes -- there were some clever bits in there. Not enough shots of Kate's posterior, however.</blockquote>
