RE2 review may cotain spoilers

Rating: 3/10 (25 November 2015)

As a huge fan of RE -- after watching the first movie -- though not perfect , it is a great movie , i was looking forward to RE2 , in the hopes of seeing all the unique , original ideas , characters and creepy spooky horror elements that made the game scary ( Nemesis in particular ) hoping they would do the game justice , how wrong i was . RE Apocalypse is in my top 10 of worst movies ever made. First; Paul Anderson's screenplay is ridiculous , it is full of stupid , laughable ,embarassing , ilogical and poorly thought out ideas ever conceived to film , with some of the worst continuity errors i have seen in a movie , in both storytelling and logic , that is totally unforgivable , especially a RE fan. This movie is nothing like RE , i don't care that they tuck it in another direction , but you have to stay within the world of the games or the movie will fail as this one did. Another reason it failed was due to Alexander Witt-less' direction. This is the worst directed movie i have ever seen , due to all elements of directing. Alex should stay in second-unit because he doesn't have the skill , talent and vision to helm and sustain an entire movie to him self. Errors in this movie include; Jill Valentine walks into the police station with only one gun and in the next shot another gun pops out of nowhere. Kain is standing next to a man with a bald head and next shot a man with dark hair.( same man ) sniper shoots undead in their heads but when Nemesis shows the sniper doesn't , when in reality there would be no more nemesis. It takes Umbrella 13 hours to build an entire wall around Raccoon city , when in reality it would take months to build and we're supposed to believe it tuck a few hours. How do you write and direct a movie without noticing these things just gos to show why this movie failed. Alex directs this movie with fast cutting and a 100 shots of one punch thrown an inch forward then another 100 of another inch , and when your about to see the impact he cuts out the shot and 2 minutes of the fight is missing , and also he has the camera rammed right infront of what he is shooting and thats the way the movie is from start to finish , and when the movie is over the viewer is left thinking to them selves 'Did i just not see that?' and that is not how to direct a movie because people go to movies to experience them. But the thing that was most damaging to the movie was the constant ripping off ideas of other superior movie ;Escape from new york , Aliens , John Carpenter movies,The Terminator , so blaintly ,that the essence of RE is totally destroyed.The Nemesis in the game is a terrifying fracked-up Jason Vorheeves type character ,in the movie he was the Terminator , and any true fan of RE would never disrespect the franchise in anyway , so i can understand why people think Paul WS is not a true fan of RE but for me its a case of showing how bad a writer Paul is.This movie is not RE , it doesn't deserve its title.Arter so much thought and effort was put into this movie just for it to bomb , critically ,popularity , financially and for the fans make RE2 an embarrassment in the history of film. I give it 3/10 , 1 star for the audio commentary of Mila vovovich(forgive my spelling) and oded Fehr , 2'nd for the actress of Jill Valentine.
