Ultraviolet (2006)

In the late 21st century, a subculture of humans have emerged who have been modified genetically by a vampire-like disease, giving them enhanced speed, strength and intelligence, and because they are set apart from ordinary "healthy" humans, societal riffs push the world to the brink of worldwide civil war between the human government and the enhanced diseased populace. Caught in the middle is one such infected woman, Violet (Milla Jovovich), who finds herself protecting a nine-year-old boy, Six (Cameron Bright), who has been marked for death.

I think this movie is going to be amazing because Kurt Wimmer (Equilibrium) is directing it. Equilibrium is a great movie but underated. This guy has an excellent visual style - his action scenes are very imaginative. I think this film will be like the next Blade movies.

Milla Jovovich is beautiful and a talented actress, who kicked ass in The Fifth Element and the Resident Evil films.

Here's the trailer

I wasn't even concidering watching this untill "Clubbed to Death" came on.

it Just looks like another Summer Blockbuster...

But actually somewhat worth watching.

Who is that? Xena? Lucy lawless?

This movie looks sooo good

Loved Equilibrium... That trailer kicked all kinds of arse. Sounds like a take on the I, Robot story (which in turn was a take (and a bad one) on a story done a thousand times before) only with style and much more arse-kickery.

Another

Last one, my fav one

I'm looking forwards to it, but some of the acting looked wooden from some in that trailer, hopefully it was just those parts.

Been waiting for this movie for ages, another movie that reminds me of the Japanese film Casshern. Enjoyed Equilibrium a lot, so will be seeing this one, mix of the two films.

Kurt Wimmer said that he wasnt pleased with the way "Gun Kata" was choreographed in Equilibrium and that its going to be shown the way he wanted it to be shown in Ultraviolet. So I'm assuming there's going to be some awesome action. He really knows how to make badass gun-fights.

Christian Bale > Milla Jovovich.

Don't expect it to live up to "Equilibrium", otherwise you'll probably be sorely disappointed. That said, it does look pretty badass. Some "Equilibirum" staples there as well with the armored guards, all white suits, crosses, etc.

Interesting ... Equilibrium had quite an intense plot ... a bit too much of a headache - giver for me 😄

Yeah but vampires should be good ... but how come the creator always has to make it a vampire-like disease?Why can't they just be like ... vampires that haven't been infected by some sort of disease lol 😄

I sure as hell know It won't be better than Equilibrium.

I can only hope it gives me the same feel. But Milla isn't one of my favorites actresses, and Bale is one of my favorite actors.

Doesn't even ahve the same face.. Wow.

I've been so blinded by how cool this looks I forgot to move it to the Sci-fi section.
