Great action/horror combo

Rating: 9/10 (17 July 2005)

This is one of the best movies in this genre. The research facility provides a nice and scary high-tech atmosphere. An excellent soundtrack by Marilyn Manson that really suits the environment. The story is definitely interesting and keeps you focused. Flawless acting.
One of the few things I find bad about Resident Evil is the excessive amount of zombies towards the end of the movie. IMHO 'Monsters' should come unexpected and in limited amounts to make it more thrilling. The huge mutant monster towards the very end could possibly be left out of changed to give it a bit more credibility.
I also find the Red Queen mainframe computer 'laser' protection system somewhat stupid but this is a minor defect.
A similar scenery and feeling can be found in the game Half-Life, so if you enjoyed playing that you will probably like this movie.
