Plot: In the late 21st a disease called Hemophagia has genetically modified nearly an entire race of people, leaving them with such enhanced speed, intelligence, and strength that they resemble vampires in nearly every way. Fear begins to breed within the power elite as the disease continues to spread and those infected prove to be truly superhuman, and now, a civil war is brewing between uninfected humans and those altered by Hemophagia. Caught dead in the center of it is an infected woman called Violet (Milla Jovovich), who is bent on vengeance and has little left to lose. Provoked beyond reason by powers that will not rest until she and her people are dead, she will become everything her persecutors feared her to be. ~ Cammila Albertson, All Movie Guide

All that I can say, so much better in Blu-Ray. Watching the movie in HD you really truly get the idiosyncrasy pieces that the director was going for when the film was made. The only question I have to ask still, when will there be a sequel? :-/

The fighting scenes are good!!
Added 9/10/2009

This DVD was something I wanted to see for a long time. I'm a big fan of M. Jolovich and her fighting/action movies. This movie carries throughout all the fighting one person can handle. The choreograph action and visual-effects are worthed the money. However, the story line could use some help; for example how she (Jolovich's charater) came into being. I find it hard to believe constant testing can make a person more advance than others, eventhough the lost of a child can be life-changing. Maybe that is what may her a skill fighter...I don't know. That's why I gave this 3-stars. The director or the writers were not very clear so I was left to wonder myself. Overall, the movie does keep my attention with action and set background...spectecular but, of course, mila looks incredible sexy in leather too.

like an extremely bad version of a futuristic 'Resident Evil'-film

This film could be called an extremely bad version of a futuristic 'Resident Evil' film.
Jovovich plays the same type of character: genetically manipulated human-being becoming superhero. But this one doesn't have the good storyline, directing and acting as those series of films.

The graphics or art directing is just terrible, it's looks completely unconvincing and fake, I really hated it. I contrast this to 'Minority Report', which actually looked convincing.

The storyline is not good either, it's more drama, with a few action scenes, than science-fiction. I was very bored with it, it was predicable all the way through.

For more serious viewers looking for some action or science-fiction, then I think this film will just aggravate you, like it did me.

Nice fight scenes, others not so much......
Added 8/29/2009

I saw this movie in a discounted movie theatre (ya know, $.99 cent tickets, $8 dolar popcorn sold) and it was worth the price I paied for it (which was again...99 cents)

The movie will confuse the heck out of alot of people from the start and may just disinterest more throughout.

Having bowling balls shoot assassins into a building and then dropping the scientists does set the tone for the kind of movie you will see. And what guy wouldn't want to see Mila kicking some serious butt either. She can wear whatever she pleases as well!! :)

This was eyecandy and the fighting scenes were awsome. The guards with the energy rods (?) did rather suck when they attacked her. She moped the floor easy. She then mops the floor with all the other guards before jumping off the building at the helicopter shooting at her. Oh yeah, the suitcase held a kid???

It becomes boring when it switches from the mindless fighting until the action keeps up again. The story just wasn't there at all. The part where she takes down 3 rows of guards with weapons drawn already was a little too much for me though. She just seemed to kick everybody's butt too quickly.

Overall, an average movie with no balance between action and story.
