Michael Corvin, played by Scott Speedman, was named after Ashe Corven from The Crow: City of Angels (1996). The character name of Ashe Corven was previously named Michael Corvin.

Errores:

Errores que Revelan: There is a shot where Selene picks up a camera that was on the floor. She is seen running with it in hand when she is running inside the subway. But then it is never seen again as she flips out through the rear window. We never see the camera again until back at the Mansion when she is reviewing the pictures taken. Where could anyone possibly conceal a camera of that size?

Citas:

[first lines]
Selene: [voiceover] The war had all but ground to a halt in the blink of an eye. Lucian, the most feared and ruthless leader ever to rule the Lycan clan, had finally been killed. The Lycan horde scattered to the wind in a single evening of flame and retribution. Victory...

Now I Know

Better than people want to admit

I can understand why some people were unwilling to give this movie a chance. I started out thinking, OK, so Anna Valerious from Van Helsing is now a female Blade! I was wrong! I also went in thinking it was going to be a push button movie with no real twists.

Again I was wrong.

I didn't really see the twist coming at the end (surprising, since I figured out who Kaiser Sosay was!) I liked this move for a lot of reasons. The darkness in the movie wasn't oppressive. The acting was good, and the story strong.

I give it a 7 out of 10.
