Critics Consensus

An incomprehensible and forgettable sci-fi thriller, Ultraviolet is inept in every regard.

Rob Nelson

Village Voice

The most receptive audience will mainly be enlightened to know that you can make a movie as thoroughly unprofessional as this one and still get it released in 3,000 theaters.

Chicago Reader

Despite the expository speeches draped over this like birthday bunting, the story remains largely incomprehensible.

Guardian

Some spectacular action, though obviously digital: free of risk, free of drama.

Rated: 2/5

Fiction Machine

Ultraviolet is short, confusing, visually murky, and dramatically underwhelming. It is not, by any reasonable measure, a good film.

Rated: 3/10

Milla Jovovich is as amazing as you expect, but her participation in this style of films, which seem all the same, begins to tire. [Full Review in Spanish]

Dare Daniel

With a visual aesthetic that recalls a 1998 screensaver and a script penned by Google Translate, the film is either admirably unwatchable, contemptuously unwatchable or Vice-unwatchable. Whatever the case, it's unwatchable.

Rated: 1/5

I don't know what idiots have written such trashy reviews about this movie, probably the same ones who think The Hobbit series are the greatest movies ever made. Ultraviolet is a great action movie, and doesn't seem to get the love it deserves. From the opening credits to the finale it is nonstop Milla Jovovich at her best. When I found out Ultraviolet had only an 8% rating, I knew I needed to do my part to change that! Watch this movie, you will not be disappointed!
