Well Worth Watching!

Rating: 7/10 (27 January 2004)

Ok, Video games to films? Not very good admitted, Super Mario Bros attests to that. I am trying not to be biased as i am a massive fan of the video games. Unfortunately, this film was a very very good chance to make a top notch horror flick. It's a double edged sword however, if they rewrite(As they pretty much did) the storyline, it leaves it dissimilar to the VG's that me and quite a few others love! and if they dont rewrite it, it would obviously turn out to be predictable. Besides the disappointment of RE for that matter, it is a great watch, with some special effects to make the game "come to life" (the licker) and the film is ultimately cast above such terrible efforts as mario bros and StreetFighter. Milla Jovovich is worthy of a lead role, and looks damn fine as well! A hashed "alien-style" plot of the underground laboratory security system "turning against them" was kinda shocking but given the aforementioned VG to film efforts, it holds it head up high, though without unfortunately being able to scare the life outta me!
