4.0 out of 5 stars Comix and Video, March 31, 2006

The Movie Guy "Asteroid Hollywood" (Da' Midwest - Earth) - See all my reviews

The Amazon review stated, "As an overdose of eye candy, Ultraviolet can be marginally recommended as the second-half of a double-feature with Aeon Flux. Both films are disposable adolescent fantasies featuring an ass-kicking babe (in this case, the svelte and sexy Milla Jovovich) in a dystopian future, and both specialize in the kind of barely-coherent, video-game storytelling that's constantly overwhelmed by an over-abundance of low-budget CGI."

My question is, "Is there a problem with this?"

Ultraviolet was a fun 'comic book movie' with a touch of Anime feel, a touch of 'Brave New World' and a very interesting blending of CGI that was (in my opinion) not "low budge" but quality controled to straddle the line between the comic book world and the 'live action world. A reasonable "graphic novel" plot... lots of action... nice parody twist on the "guns... lots of guns" bit in Matrix... plot doesn't drag... action doesn't slow down... minor moralizing (just enought to stay true to the genra)... sheesh... what's not to like?

It ain't "Gone wiht the Wind"... but then... wasn't intended to be... If ya' like you're comic-book movies to be comic-book movies you'll love "Ultraviolet"... if ya' want something deep and meaningful... watch "Lord of War"...

There are many reasons why I liked Ultraviolet but first and foremost I liked it for the intense, graphic and innovative fight sequences that splattered my screen from the second I pressed play. In books I expect the story to stir up the images but in movies it's the visuals that rock my world, and the story follows closely behind.

This movie surely had my eyes and my mind captivated from start to finish. The story as far fetched as it was didn't throw me off, as I followed Violet, played by Milla Jovovich who in my mind was born to play quirky high combat characters, and her team of friends and foes as the so called, Blood Wars fed life cycles of modern Earth. She is on a mission which I will not give away, but that mission makes her angry, unstoppable and out for blood as she flew, drove , kicked, shot, sliced though and propelled herself again st laws of gravity towards her goal. The colors, liquid metallics, flying scraps of matter, bullets, heart stopping stunts and her motorbike skills left me with my mouth open and my brain entertained in a way that is hard for most movies. I have never seen the Ultraviolet comics but this movie was swimming in special effects so collaborative that all fantastic movies now have more to struggle against as this set new standards .


I know I might have more unusual liking for movies than the majority, and as many people didn't seem to like it, I have to say that this was wonderful and intense beyond what I expected. The music by Klaus Badelt was just as magnificent and will have to go on top of my movie scores list. Great movie, as long as seen with an open mind and total openness for some fantastic butt kicking as it blends Kill Bill, The Matrix, Aliens and all my favorite super heroes into one.

4.0 out of 5 stars Hoping this will restore the cut footage that gave the film more clarity!, April 26, 2006

This review is from: Ultraviolet (Unrated, Extended Cut) (DVD)

I was one of the few who actually thought this was a decent movie, and it may be because I knew what was cut out of the film and what will hopefully be restored in this Unrated DVD. About 30 minutes was cut which told the viewer much more clearly why things were the way they were and why certain characters were doing certain things. As it was, the movie was VERY hard to understand without this footage - and thus it is no wonder it floundered at the Box Office!

Also, there should be some nifty violence re-added as well! Can't wait to see the original vision!
