Watched Rise of the Lycans and Taken on Friday/Saturday night.
I am a fan of Underworld, but it just wasn't the same without Kate. Decent enough I guess if you go in knowing what you're getting. There was an argument a while back when it was first announced that Kate (yes, we're on a first name basis
) wouldn't be in this and Rhona Mitra would be. Some interjected that Rhona was hotter. Um, no. She's a worthy replacement, and she is hot, but she's no Kate Beckinsale.
Taken was quite a bit of fun. I found myself really engaged in the pursuit of the guy's daughter, really pulling for him as he went from one place to another. It was completely unbelievable throughout, but it provided what is expected from that kind of movie.
