Great Adventure and Sequel

Rating: 8/10 (14 July 2005)

When Major Cain (Thomas Kretschmann) reopens The Hive, there is an outbreak of the T-Virus in Raccoon City. The Umbrella leader closes the gateway to the city and traps the survivals with the contaminated zombies, and releases Nemesis to destroy the STARS members to test how powerful this deadly weapon is. Meanwhile, Alice (Milla Jovovich), Jill Valentine (Sienna Guillory) and Carlos Oliviera (Oded Fehr) try to find Angela, the little daughter of Dr. Ashford (Jared Harris), who is trapped in Raccoon City, as the means to escape from the siege of the city.
Although having a kind of prejudice against movies with lots explosions and special effects, I loved "Resident Evil: Apocalypse". This movie is a great non-stop adventure and sequel of the first "Resident Evil". The choreography of the fights is excellent, the heroines are marvelous and everything works well in this great entertainment. I do not play video-games, but "Resident Evil" is among the favorite ones of my son and my daughter, and now I can understand why. My vote is eight.
Title (Brazil): "Resident Evil 2: Apocalipse" ("Resident Evil 2: Apocalypse")
Note: On 31 January 2017, I saw this film again.
