Better than expected but had major flaws

Rating: 8/10 (16 March 2002)

Resident Evil is at least not like Tomb Raider when it comes to video games made into movies: bad. While Resident Evil is scary, violent, and has some great action sequences, I really did wish it stuck more to the first video game, or at least not have put in the "Red Queen". The movies does have its little twists that will surprise you. One more flaw is that sometimes the actors are actually trying to ACT. Those scenes are almost like watching Battlefield Earth. Overall, I thought the movie is good and will most likely buy it on DVD. The only people who may not like it are the Resident Evil fanatics. I may be wrong, but that's how I see it.
8/10
