Synopsis :
As an overdose of eye candy; Ultraviolet can be marginally recommended as the second-half of a double-feature with Aeon Flux. Both films are disposable adolescent fantasies featuring a butt-kicking babe (in this case; the svelte and sexy Milla Jovovich) in a dystopian future; and both specialize in the kind of barely-coherent; video-game storytelling that's constantly overwhelmed by an over-abundance of low-budget CGI. Director Kurt Wimmer fared much better with his earlier film Equilibrium; but he's trying for a lively comic-book vibe here (beginning with Hulk-like opening credits) with a digitally enhanced; Tron-like color palette. It largely suits this late-21st century story of a "blood war" between the ultra-violent Violet (Jovovich); member of a vampire-like group of resistance fighters infected with a man-made virus called the Hemophage; and the human Vice Cardinal Daxus (Nick Chinlund); who's determined to eliminate Violet's kind once and for all. Wimmer takes all of this way too seriously; crafting a plot involving Violet's rescue of a human clone boy (Cameron Bright) that's intended as an homage to John Cassevetes' 1980 drama Gloria; but Wimmer's good intentions are mostly lost in a repetitive series of chaotically choreographed fight scenes; mostly involving the tight-bodied Jovovich wiping out dozens of armor-clad enemies. It's all too numbingly hectic to qualify as a satisfying movie; but sci-fi buffs should give it a look anyway; if only to see how locations in Shanghai and Hong Kong contribute to the film's futuristic design.--Jeff Shannon
