Well Underworld wasn’t exactly what I thought it would be. I didn’t think it was a bad movie, but it did leave a lot of holes to be plugged. I got the impression that the story had been written with a sequel firmly in mind the whole time. I don’t really have a problem with that as long as I get a satisfying ending to the story I’ve gone to the theater to see.
On the otherhand, Once Upon a Time in Mexico was pretty much what I expected, lots and lots of shooting and action sequences. It stuck to the storyline of the other two movies in this trilogy. The only surprise was Johnny Depp’s character. Once again, like in Pirates of the Caribbean, he practically stole the show.
