Ultraviolet Movie Review 2006

After being given a virus by the military to create a group of superhumans, sexy vamp Violet (Jovovich) must kick some major butt to save their lives when the powers-that-be decide to terminate them. Their ultimate survival rests within a boy named Six (Bright), whom Violet must protect. Set in a "Matrix"-like future world--a world where no shirt exists that properly fits Violet--writer/director Wimmer seems proud to crudely rip off a mishmash of other such action flicks as "Tomb Raider" and "Kill Bill," not to mention "Resident Evil."
