Gun Kata: what you get when someone has no idea how things like recoil and incoming fire affect the human body but decides they want to see someone mix martial arts and guns anyways.

I agree that it's stupid and there's no way that could possibly work, but I have a soft spot for it. It's a guilty pleasure for me to say the least.
"Number of guns, many" Probably because 'shit ton' was too precise a measurement.
"And the world turned into a germaphobic dream state." Ah, so this movie inspired 2020.

Fair enough, I thought Equilibrium was okay, I can understand people loving it or disliking it. But Ultraviolet, I tried watching it for about 10 minutes and gave up.
If it helps, the tears turned the kid into a vampire, thus the human antigen inside him could no longer kill him.
How did this movie even get to the Big Screen? Looks it it was thrown together in a month. Never saw it in theaters and I'm glad I didn't waste my money.

Not straight to DVD, but very specifically straight to Blu-ray. Sony poured a ton of money into this movie and UltraViolet wasn’t supposed to be good, it was just supposed to look good and promote the new Blu-ray format. Even the name of the film is a reference to Blu-ray.
16:26 'Speak no evil, see no evil, hear no evil.' Bravo Wimmer.

Here's my question. The combat scene where everyone's in white...where's the blood? Did 4kids take over the production?
I remember getting up and walking out of this movie about 15-20 minutes in.
You don't watch Ultraviolet for the plot, you watch it for Milla Jovovich looking sexy and badass while killing loads of bad guys.

This movie is basically just a 90 minute music video (with hardly any music)
Been binge watching your videos since I discovered your channel a couple weeks ago. I love you review style. If you ever think about doing another series, I think it would be really cool to do The Dark Crystal along with Dark Crystal: Age Of Resistance
Milla Jovovich looks good, but this movie, I've never made it past the first ten minutes.
Can't believe I went to the theater to see this. All the fights were her mostly dodging. Just shitty.
1:08 The opening comic book panels give a certain Buckaroo Banzai feel where, as Kyle Garren from Brows Held High put, it wants you to believe this single story exists as the only chapter of a cinematic universe, and wants you to believe that these other stories of Violet's continuing adventures in the intro exist. However, unlike Buckaroo Banzai, I could care less about the story of Ultraviolet continuing or looking for further issues of her adventures. Unless maybe checking the Ultraviolet anime series, but even that's unlikely.
Holy shit the nostalgia from the video intro 🖤 loved these reviews can't believe they're 6 yo.
Lmao...in the scene where they "synchronized their deathes" it's a play on the say no evil, see no evil, hear no evil thing. But yea...so weird for them to do it that way
this is another movie that would make a pretty deacent video game kinda like wolverine origins other than that its the generic super hero/villain/antihero action future movie
I saw this in theaters and I'm pretty sure I lost some IQ points.
I love that there’s a completely handwaved plot point that the cops murdered a random little boy
Watching this in 2021 wow good thing this is just a movie and in no way similar to anything happening today
When I rented this from the library, I couldn't finish it due to it being hard on my eyes with the crazy filter and color palette.
part of the plot inconsistencies is because the movie was re-edited and was cut by 40 minutes, not including the 8 minutes added back to the unrated extended cut.
This is one of the best terrible movies ever. For horror there's Birdemic,drama had The Room,LGBT movies had Ben and Arthur, musicals had Sargent Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band and for action movies we got Ultraviolet.
William Fichtner was in this shit! Are you shitting me!? Visually, this feels like the exact same film as Aeon Flux which came out (a flopped) a year earlier. Not only that, but Wimmer went on to piss on two greats: Point Break and Total Recall with his shite writing. And I'll admit it, I actually thought the gun kata was a cool idea when I saw Equilibrium- the story was sooooooooo cliche, but the gun kata was pretty cool. Unfortunately, I guess Wimmer knew that.
That cup at 16:22 looks like the opposite of spill proof. Even the actor has a hard time picking it up.
With the main guy not wearing sunglasses, I get the feeling that in his head it was because he was so cool and badass he put up with the pain to make sure people didn't know he was a vampire. But he forgot to actually hint at that at any point during the film so it just ends up feeling more like he forgot about it. Though he could also just have forgotten what he wrote earlier as well, when a film is this bad all bets are off on whether its juvenile stupidity or just not paying attention to your own world.

I liked it, for what it was. I will say if you'd listened to her flashback a bit, she mentioned that the virus is in bodily fluids. Which unrealistically includes tears. Her "magic tears" basically infected 6. Lol anyone here in 2020 thinking this looks like a covid outbreak
Looks like an ad for Loreal
I saw this on "movie mix channel digital 32 on Freeview UK TV" Deus you are one cool dude
So, did you like it? I couldn't tell...
that intro is fucking awsome
Supposedly Kurt Wimmer was born in Honolulu, HI. Where I was born and raised. That being said, I don't accept him as my own fellow because of this movie.
There couldn't be any more style in this movie if they tried. Over stylized would be the greatest understatement ever uttered by man.
Who's watching this in 2021?
Poor cg rendering aside, I appreciate the style of this movie. But literally nothing else works.
i have seen this video more than 5 times now and i just now noticed that you called violet's belt a Henshin belt holy shit xD
Wow...it really looks like they took some early pre-viz for those city shots and decided it was good enough to use on its own. Given how bad it looks on a little KZread window, I can only imagine how godawful it must've looked on a theatrical screen.

Trust me, it was garbage. I made the mistake of seeing it in the cinema. It looked liked video graphics from the late 90's with a Vaseline smeared over the top.
Just to point out, i believe the film maker wants us to think that a bloodborn pathogen somehow transferred to the kid through violet's tears thus making the human killer virus not lethal to him. I think there is a throw away line somewhere near then end saying as much.
Wow. This is a bad movie. I though that the Resident Evil series was bad. I didn't fully like equilibrium but wow.

Love your reviews .This is super late but i recently got into your reviews and the one thing i disagree with is the the whole taking the gun out of the bag. Its not taking it too far because yes people who are germaphobs dont stop being germaphobs because the audience knows now it would lack consistency with the character shown being an over the top germaphob. Me personally i didn't really take the movie seriously because i think that was intended it was hust supposed to be an over the top "Stylised" film it was still bad but just saying from what i have watched.
I think her tear infected 6. I think that's what the flash back was implying.
I like this movie. I also liked Equilibrium. But I've enjoyed your reviews too. Hmmm.......oh well.
Why does it feel like a good bit of this was stolen from Ruroni Kenshi? The villain's serrated sword catching on fire looks to me like it was lifted directly from Shishigami Makoto...

pretty sure your the only person to say the Total Recall Remake and Point Break Remake is good the latter of which I think I read someone putting it best saying "go pro and red bull made a movie" and speaking of which he had nothing to do with the original point break so not sure why thats on the list
The joke in school on this movie was "Ultraviolent". Not super original, I know.
I'm not sure Kurt Wimmer understands what the word 'antigen' means.
I really liked equilibrium, mostly because Christian bale is a great actor and I like bleak, dystopian futures, but good god, this movie is like Robert Rodriguez wrote it for his kids.
this reminds me of AEON FLUX. that is also worth a review

I really feel like some of the actors who read the script thought it was a comedy thus the weird comedy acting in places. And honestly that would make sense as if you saw in the script "and he takes out a germ sealed gun" you'd be in your rights to assume it's a comedy.

Just want to point out one fact: The scene when Violet faced the gang on rooftop (11:32), they were speaking in VIETNAMESE not Thai not Hindi not makeup language ThaiHindi whatsoever. It might sounds gibberrish because Violet's accent was heavy, but the guy was speaking very clear, and after a few listen in closely, I could tell Violet was speaking Vietnamese as well but heavily accented.
