The best out of the series!

Rating: 6/10 (12 October 2010)

After watching the first, I thought that this sequel would be worse but to my surprise, this sequel is actually betterbut not by much. The story is more-or-less the same as the first one (we need to get to point A to B by this time, fighting zombies along the way) but it's a little more stronger. The action sequences and explosions were good to watch but in some of the scenes felt like it was there to impress thirteen-year-old teenagers to keep their attention. I also noticed it follows the games a lot more in Apocalypse than it does with Resident Evil which is a plus since Resident Evil hardly followed any of the games. Gamers will be glad to see Nemesis, zombie dogs and Jill Valentine return on-screen and will also be glad that the design and make-up for Nemesis was superbly done. Yet again, Milla Jovovich was spot-on as bad-ass Alice as was Sienna Guillory who played as Jill Valentine and Mike Epps who added a little humour to this zombie action movie as L.J. The characters were done well but they wasn't done well enough that you would care about what happened to them.
The visual effects were done quite good and the action scenes were executed very well, especially the scenes in the church and the graveyard which showed great camera-work and special effects. The music wasn't very memorable and didn't fit some of the scenes well like the last movie although the theme tune was good.
The ending in this movie, for me, isn't much of an improvement from the last but it's good enough for a mediocre movie series. The start, middle and end felt like it was going at an average pace which is a good thing.
