I'm not comparing these two films. I'm saying the reviewer would have been justified in saying teh original was great and that, by comparison, the sequel was crap. I felt exactly the same, when I reviewed them. 'Underworld evolution' had far too many problems (a main character being pointlessly zapped out of the story for ages, the villain killing everyone who would have willingly helped them, for no apparent reason and so on), but 'Underworld' was fantastic. It was one of those things which had a huge amount of potential and squandered it for nice visuals.
