A Repeat of Resident Evil 2

Rating: 6/10 (19 May 2007)

OK, first off there may be things you consider "spoilers" in here, so *SPOILERS*, OK, the movie wasn't bad. I enjoyed it, but there were a lot of things that make you say... why? Why would you do that? Why?? But the thing is, if you've ever seen the second Resident Evil, it is pretty much like the writer of this film just took the Resident Evil script and adjusted it. In Resident Evil, there's the happy city of Raccoon Town or something, and they're all fine and happy, until the virus breaks out. Then, the army people who are supposed to be protecting the people of the town instead end up killing everyone in the town as a way to get rid of the infection. In this movie, after all the citizens get back to England all happy, what do you know, the infection is back. And then they can't contain the infection, so the army who is supposed to be protecting the citizens, start shooting them all down even if it's obvious that they're not infected. Secondly, the reason that the infection returns is because there is a random person, the mother of our hero children, who turns out to be immune to the virus. So they don't appear to be affected, but they are just a carrier. So she gives it to someone else who then gets infected and spreads it leading to everything. If you remember in Resident Evil, Anna, or whatever her name is, yeah she's immune to the T-Virus, so even though when other people are bitten or whatever they turn into a zombie and start killing people, she looks fine. And then there's the little girl who also is immune to the T-Virus. She has it in her, but she isn't a zombie, what do you know this mother who spreads it... yeah, her son ends up to have it as well. There really isn't much story outside of that. Citizens running and getting bitten by the infected, or being shot down by the US Army. That's it... Resident Evil without the final fight between Anna and the big monster dude with guns and knives and such... and I guess that's kinda sad that that's missing. Again, it wasn't bad, I just feel it could have been better... Disappointment since I love the first movie...
