Each UNDERWORLD sequel was released 3 years after the previous one. UNDERWORLD PART 5: BLOOD WARS was released 5 years after. That might not seem like a big difference, but audiences forget fast. Especially when it comes to a franchise that has never been that financially successful. That's why this movie begins with a montage of clips from the previous installments and a narration explaining everything: The makers know that viewers don't remember. You would think that the movie would then try to compensate with non-stop fight sequences, but most scenes just show conversations. Normally, it's a good thing to focus on the plot and the characters more than in the action, but:
-They weren't well-written here. Since it's hard for us to get invested in this world, the slow pacing feels as unnecessary as serving turkey in Thanksgiving. No one will try it, because everyone only want to eat turkey. Wait, what?
-This isn't a drama. Movies of this genre require a minimum amount of action.
