Great movie, could've used a little more RE

Rating: Null/10 (4 November 2002)

Long before it came out when I first about the plot for the Resident Evil movie (Red Queen computer?) I was very disappointed. I probably wouldn't have gone to see it but the day before I was shipping off to Army Basic Training I went to the movies and they were showing RE and Blade II. I decided to watch RE and I was very pleasantly surprised. It's a really good movie despite some really stupid plot holes. My only little "gripe" with the movie was that it was action not horror unlike the games. Through the whole movie I felt kinda like "This has so little to do with the Resident Evil games". Then the guy says "I want him for the Nemesis project." and I'm thinking "Oh please, that's just cheap." But when it was over and I looked back on it, I loved every second of the fun-filled, action-packed ride. Milla and Michelle were both great. No one else really stood out too much (not at all saying they weren't great). I enjoyed the Red Queen more than I expected I would. And I must say the last scene just kicked major arse! Eagerly anticipating the sequel.
