Awfully Cheesy

Rating: 2/10 (19 September 2004)

I must say that I will not be terribly upset if Paul Anderson never writes another movie so long as I live. The screenplay was incredibly cheesy!!! The characters often explained what was going on through dialogue rather than expressing what was happening through action. It was also very vague about explaining what was going on in the storyline. On the upside, the movie had a good Director of Photography. They did a great job of acheiving the right look and mood of Resident Evil. Also, I thought that the part of Jill Valentine was very well casted, she looked a lot like Jill. However, they really should have gone into why Jill knew so much about the Zombies already and explain her backstory, because it sort of leaves a blank space for non-fans of the game.
