The movie was pretty damn good and had some surprises, but due to the thin plot and some weird decisions it didn't quite live up to my expectations...

Rating: 8/10 (11 September 2010)

First of all, I must warn you: If you're expecting Apocalypse all over again, don't! When I first saw the trailers I was looking forward to Apocalypse (which is still my favorite part) on steroids and ended getting a movie with much less super powered characters and Matrix action. If you think realistically, it was a smart move to make the RE movies more survival horror again, but I'm a huge action movie fan and expected more action and crazy stunts from this 3D movie:/... There's still plenty of action, don't get me wrong, but you can clearly see that most of the 60 million dollar budget was spent on the first and last big fight and influenced the script a lot. The special effects are veeeeeeeeeeeeery good, but frankly if you've seen the trailers and clips, you've seen it all... I would have loved to see more action like there was in the first 15 minutes or so. They kinda wiped all the sci-fi away and we were left with a not so scary survival horror movie with great backgrounds and effects and slightly above average action scenes. And you'll be shocked to see what they did to poor Alice to make her ''more human'' :rolleyes:... But all that aside, the plot is fairly simple, kinda like a RE game back in the days when graphics and character voicing weren't that developed, so they had to keep a simple story. So you could say that this movie truly is the best RE game port to the movies, but it's kinda not enough for the big screen movies when you only look at the plot itself... But hey, we've seen much worse! The acting wasn't anything special either, but frankly you can't expect more from a survival horror... Still, the actors do deliver... Especially Milla, oh I love her so much!:D And many may say they don't like the soundtrack, I love it! It packs so much adrenaline or a sense of no hope... I'm interested to see what they'll do in the next one cause this one is clearly just and introduction to something new and doesn't bring a lot of story with it, plus they've really brewed some stuff together that I have no idea how the characters are going to get away after from, you'll understand me once you see the ''ending''XD... To conclude, you should go watch this movie, but don't expect it to be like in the trailer or in the first 15 minutes... I'd still like to comment on some decisions in the movie that I find questionable, but I'd start posting spoilers then, so no...
