Jul 26, 20116This movie isn't the worst movie I have come by. At least Milla was interesting to watch in action even though there were no memorable moments from this movie.

HappyfaceFacehappyMar 4, 20060This movie is definitely worse than Battlefield Earth.

MarkC.Aug 20, 20065This moive aint that bad it has a lot more action than most films these days u have to admit it does and Milla J. looks hot as the asskicking violet so were can u go wrong with this moive.

FoxM.Mar 3, 20060Wow. A movie so badly made and incomprehensible that it gives me a headache just trying to think of a summary. Anything that makes Aeon Flux look like Best Picture should be eligible for an award all its own.

-
HeidiD.Mar 3, 20068I think it is a great comic book movie. Keep that in mind, as everything is VERY over the top (and unrealistic at times) in this movie. I really enjoyed myself. It does have problems but I think the artistic feel of the movie makes up for it. It is almost like they literally took a comic book and put it to film in my opinion. I will be buying it on DVD when it is released.

ChaseS.Mar 4, 20061This movie had about 5 minutes of entertaining fight scenes...the rest was just overused computer graphics that looked like garbage, also there was absolutely no character development which left you asking "what the heck just happened?"
-
-
PaulK.Mar 5, 20069By far a movie that tried very hard to be cool. I don't think there is a true fan of Sci-Fi that shouldn't love this movie, the gadgets make up for any bad acting and script writing in this movie (I mean come-on dimension compression, how cool is that!!??)

TonyS.Mar 28, 20060Undoubtedly the worst movie I have ever seen, the plot was retarted, the special effects were insanely unbelievable, and the acting from ALL of the characters was just sickening. I expected Milla Jovovich to bring some life to the movie, as I liked some of her past movies, but even she fell short of my hopes. I want my money back.
-
-
JasonG.Mar 4, 20060This movie is perhaps the WORST movie I have ever seen. It is an incoherent mess. I literally sat in my seat the entire time feeling aggravated because it was so horrible. And I actually liked the Resident Evil movies. All I was expecting was a little escapist fun. Little did I know I would be subjected to a root canal.

EricMar 4, 20068There were some cheesy lines and some subpar CG, but overall I think it achieved a great comic book feel. Great comic storyline, action sequences, and the film just looked good. Feels like everything has just jumped off the pages of a comic book. I highly enjoyed it.
-
-
PabloR.Mar 4, 200610WOW! if u think this movie sucks your one of the biggest Jackasses alive. This movie had a great storyline great action , the acting was very good, and dont even get me started on Special effects. People who dont like this movie are even blind or Just Brain Dead!

JohnS.Mar 5, 20061The fact BoB S. would start by lumping in the 5th element with Resident Evil is already a sure sign of BS. Either he's just screwing around(which is a problem with metacritic) or he's a studio patsy, either way, this movie doesn't get over a 5 with even the most brainless of a movie goers.

NathanMar 6, 20060Movies don't get any worse than this. Acting, dialogue, special effects, the set.....all of it was horrible!

MichealP.Mar 6, 20060Fantastic Trailer and now a bad Movie. Why Ultraviolet and not Elektra 2, Aeon Flux 2 or Catwoman 2?
-
-
MarkR.Mar 7, 20065This movie is all action with very little story. It plays to the strength of the director who proved in Equilibrium that he is second to none in this arena. The result, however, is violence without purpose. There is a good film that could have been made of mess. At this moment,however, this is an 88 minute trailer in search of a movie. Too bad.

-
DarcyG.Mar 8, 20069All I have to say is that this is a tad weak in story line area but damn Milla = yum.

BrunoM.Apr 17, 20067Not that bad, is a entertainment movie.

BenG.Apr 29, 20060This movie never should have been made! During the "serious" parts of it, I laughed out loud in the theater! It's score should be under 10, and I'm doing this to put it there.

TJJun 10, 20080Absolute pigswill. Inspired a lot of bored sighs and eye-rolling among the people I saw it with. Did anyone see the building that looks like it's wearing a thong? Best bit. I laughed and laughed until I stopped.

DreHJun 25, 20098This movie IS a bad movie..... However, this movie wasn't bad because lack of effort, this movie is bad because they tried something and it did not work. They had ideas that didn't pan out well, and they tried to do things they thought the public would like, and it failed. This movie was made with LOTS of effort, and that's why i am giving this movie a good score.

MikeF.Mar 27, 20068I really enjoyed this movie. If you are expecting more than a comic book on the big screen you may be dissapointed, but Milla was great and very easy on the eyes. Go see it for it is... a great ride.

SepMar 3, 20061One of the worst movies i've ever seen. it's so pointless that one may wonder how could somebody come up with 2 hours of absolute nothing. i wanted to bang my head agains the front chair in the middle of movie.

RyanL.Mar 3, 20060Wow, I think that the critics are givin this movie too much of credit! This movie was god awful.... not to mention some of the animation was sooo bad n64 graphics look better! Do your self a favor and save that money you would use to see this movie to do something more productive, like see a better movie!
-
-
Khotso_mMar 3, 20068Super movie. For once they actually followed a comic book theme. You can see the difference between Aeon Flux(horrible!!!) and Ultraviolet(neck snapping fast action film !!!!!!!)
-
-
NickF.Mar 4, 20064This movie is awful and Im a huge fan of Equilibrium. It's only getting 4 because Milla is a babe. The action is lackluster and theres barely a plot. Not to mention its chock full of bad lines Avoid this movie like the plague.

ChristO.Mar 4, 20062Anyone who gives this film a rave works for the studio. Mila does look good. You can leave after the opening credits. It's all downhill from there.
-
-
NicketasK.Mar 4, 20068Whiney critics at it again. Check reality at the door. This movie sets out to be a breakneck action ride and it executes that *very* well. Ignore the plot and focus on the action choreography, and you will have a lot of fun. Bottom line: If you want stylized action and don't mind a light plot, you'll get your money's worth.

SeanW.Mar 5, 20066Ultraviolet went over A LOT of people's heads. It is at its core a live action comic book along the lines of Robert Rodriguez's Sin City adaptation. It was a fun, pulpy shoot-em-up sci-fi adventure that introduced a lot of decent concepts - most of which fell short due to the fact that it was re-edited & rushed to theatres by Sony Pictures. For that reason alone I subtract four stars.

SamApr 3, 20062When I first saw the add for Ultraviolet, I was excited. It looked like it could be a gorgeous, great classic. Then I heard the words "Rated PG-13" and I almost got sick. No like, I thought Ultraviolet was a videogame, and that's exactly what it is.

DarkeverT.Jul 15, 20063Tremendous movie, lacks of almost any form of plot. Action scenes are not completely bad, but we sure saw much better ones. The presence of Milla saves it from a 2 or 1.

JohnJan 23, 200810This movie is awesome, it's not gonna be the next great big blockbuster and I doubt it was made with that intention but it's still an incredible movie in it's genre.

AndrewRFeb 21, 20080this is the single worst movie i have ever seen my god half way through the movie you find out they are frigin vampires my god that could have been useful information, and when shes dodging bullets on the rooftop with 13 guys and they all shoot each other do the math that doesn't add up

SamuelC.Jul 19, 20069Great Movie for action lovers like me.
-
-
DemothNov 26, 20070This movie will give you eye cancer if you actually look at it straight on. The dialogue was absolutely stupid, the action was mind numbingly bad, and the plot jumped around like some type of flea on steroids. Thanks to this movie I can no longer go to heaven.
-
-
MarkB.Dec 8, 20070I went to the theater with a friend and at first I was surprised that we were the only ones in the theater. As the movie went on I kind of figured why. The movie is hard to enjoy even if you want to and it has this strange look to it. It seems like the lighting is way off.

AMovieCriticJun 27, 20073Probably the ugliest movie I've ever seen. The entire movie has this glowing look to it, like someone needed to wipe the camera lens. There was no plot, the acting was bad (Milla Jovovich practically whispers every line) the writing was horrible...some cool fight scenes, the opening action scenes, and some cool music is really all that makes it watchable. And even then.
-
-
Oct 22, 20102Jesus... how was this even made? Shocking film and a complete waste of Milla's hardass talents. The director should be burned for this awful crime. Or just shoot him in the leg.
-
Dec 27, 20111"Ultraviolet" One Line Review! This could be in the top 10 worst films of all time, the only redeeming quality is the constant showing of Milla Jovovich's midriff.
-
Aug 29, 201110My name is Gerry Marshall and i think this movie is the best movie ever made. The acting was so amazing along with the awesome scripting and visuals were absolutley mind blowing. this was the best movie ever released. hit me up on facebook if you disagree with my review. for all the haters go eat a dick
-
Mar 22, 20120Visually, this film strains the eyes like an unending neon kaleidoscope. Mentally, this film strains the brain like a science paper written by a 6th grade special ed student. Avoid at all costs.

20Pic is hermetically sealed in a synthetic wrapping that's so total -- Sony's top-flight high-def cameras, visibly low-budget CG work, exceptionally hackneyed and imitative action and dialogue --that it arrives a nearly lifeless film.
