Greatest Video Game to Movie translation EVER!

Rating: 10/10 (17 March 2002)

Being a fan of zombie-movies and the biggest Resident Evil fan in the Northern Hemisphere, I loved this movie. The scenery was superb. Some of the shots are taken directly from the game and give any true Re fan a feeling of coming home. This has been my most anticipated movie for a long, long time.
The plot is fairly basic but works very well: An experimental virus has been released in a top secret, underground facility. A team of highly trained, highly equipped "problem solvers" working for the Umberella Corporation is sent in to take control of the situation. As they enter the superficial cover of the mansion that is the entrance to the installation, The Hive, they find an unconscious Alice(Milla Jovovich) and a cop named Matt(Eric Mabius). After acquiring their two new members they break into The Hive and the fun begins. The computer "brain" of the Hive has gone homicidal and wants to kill everything within its grasp. After they go underground the action starts to run together and be non-stop, but in a Very good way. Possibly lurking around every corner is a zombie or something much, much worse. The scene to really watch for is when the team enters the corridor outside the main computer control room. Also not to be missed is the nude scene Milla Jovovich did. HOT HOT HOT!!! This movie works on so many levels. It is a great movie that really entertains and has a thumpin' soundtrack. ROCK ON PAUL ANDERSON. Hurry up with the sequel.
