...and I occasionally love art house dreck. But sometimes the brain needs a break. Enter Ultraviolet.
Ultraviolet has an incredibly sheisty plot, late-night Cinemax acting, and, honestly, pretty soft action sequences. But it's visually fun, super colorful, and Mila is trying way too hard to be bad-a**, which is kind of cute. Basically, what you end up with is a 94-minute (thank you "unrated" DVD version) vignette that I fully expected to see followed up with the name of a perfume or sports car. There are nights when a 3 & 1/2 hour treatise on the sociological implications of man realizing his Super Id amid the shackles of a defeatist human logic as seen through the eyes of a Ukranian milk man is just the thing. And then there the other nights....where I'd just as soon watch a hot chick in multi-colored leather unrealistically battle her way through hundreds of bad dudes to save the day. Can you feel me?
