THE PLOT:

Selene and Michael are still on the run and Selene feels that pleading her case and the circumstances that led to the events of the last movie. But soon they learn that Marcus is awake and in no more for talk, he wants them dead and it's back to running. But as the flee Marcus they start learning more of the events that first triggered the civil war between the vampires and the lycans in the first place and how five hundred years of war was started in an instant.

ZEDD'S OPINION:

Just as good as the first movie, maybe even better. Marcus has his bat wings and looked scarier then Viktor did in the first movie, the Lycans were harrier then the first movie. Two very important improvements. Also they kept with the original actors that's always important. It ran a tad long for me, but other then that I think a vast improvement to the first movie, 9 STARS.

VOLTRON'S OPINION:

I agree with Zedd on the improvements and that it was a tad long. But again no female Lycans, what's up with that? Women can be vampires but Lycans are a men only thing. Anyway, it is an improvement from the first movie and give it 9 STARS as well.

ON THE POSITIVE SIDE (+ HITS):

+ CHARACTERS (Great characters, well written.)
+ EFFECTS (Very impressed.)
+ HAIRY LYCANS (Which is a improvement compared to the first movie.)
+ MARCUS (Vampire Markus is cool.)
+ CAST (The cast from the first movie always works.)

ON THE NEGATIVE SIDE (- MISSES):

- LONG (It does run a bit long.)
- NO WOMEN LYCANS (Who knew Lycanthropy would be such a boys club?)

...AND FINALLY...

- FAN BASED (If you aren't big on the first movie then you won't like this one.)
