A Worthy Sequel, which flows like the Original

Rating: 7/10 (12 May 2012)

I was a little skeptical about this sequel since I liked the original, but after 5 minutes, I knew that this would be a worthy sequel. I don't think it is as good as part 3 or the Original itself, but I do believe that this film is top notch, going for a different style.
The plot is basically the same where the same character, Alice teams up with some survivors and fights the same corrupt bimbos who let out the virus in the first place. Although the plot is still not fully developed, I think that the themes, kills and action have changed. I thought the one eyed looking creature was also awesome as well. These elements to me is what made this sequel still stand the test of time.
The action scenes and kills are much more better, the themes of setting the story into the open, public cities was an excellent choice because it gave the film a different feel where anyone (infected or not) could be killed or under threat at any time, and even the elements of the nasty corporation being fleshed out more gave us these gritty feelings of really hating those characters.
Overall, even if the plot of RE2 is not well-developed on any level, the film itself is still entertaining.
7/10
