Good Movie

Rating: Null/10 (27 July 2003)

** May Contain Spoilers ** Right off the bat the movie caught my attention because I had NO IDEA what was going on. I know a lot of movies start like that but Resident Evil did this in a way where I wanted to find out what was happening and why. For almost 1/3 of the movie I was left guessing why the events were occurring and what would be uncovered. The film did this in a suspenseful, fast-paced, and terrorizing way. Also, what caught my attention, was the futuristic institution where the entire film took place. I thought the idea of an underground secretive laboratory, owned by one of the richest corporations in the world, was very innovative. The AI that controlled the facility and the weaponry that guarded it was awesome! Also, the music in the film always seemed to match the scene and point out that something big and dangerous was about to be uncovered. I also happen to LOVE movies that don't have an expected happy ending. The ending in this movie totally reminded me of the beginning of "28 Days Later" (maybe that's where they got the idea?). I felt that the movie was very unique and I love movies that stand out from the regular predictable ones. 8/10
