pretty good action flick

Rating: 8/10 (15 March 2002)

The movie was a lot better than I expected. Then again, my expectations were set *really* low (so that it would be difficult for me to be let down).
Res. Evil greatly exceeded my expectations. That means it was pretty good--not Oscar material, but good.
They movie intentionally has a somewhat different plot from the game it's based on (so that things don't get boring). At the same time, even though it's different from the game, it manages to keep a lot of the same feeling--and you can definitely still claim that this movie *is* "Resident Evil".

Warning: ::Possible semi-ENDING-SPOILER::
Watch out for that ending--it's dark, open ended, and screaming, "SEQUEL!!" It looks really cool too. :-)

Okay, that's all.
I gave it an IMDb score of 8. It would have been 9 except for a few scenes I thought were fairly lame that, in my opinion, hurt the film. Still an over-all good action movie though.
