Underworld films are a highly specialized taste, and those who've acquired it know who they are. Everyone else should give this one a wide berth.

The plot is so convoluted that missing even five minutes at a stretch won't make any difference in your comprehension of the story.

I can't even begin to divulge the storyline because it's mostly unfathomable.
Derek Adams, Time Out
Rotten
I dare anyone to follow the plot, which manages, like some ill-baked meringue, to be both too light on the surface and too densely clotted underneath.
Stephen Metcalf, Slate
Rotten
A monster chiller sequel that is visually spectacular but rather overburdened with story.
