Good action as always, but that's all..

Rating: 6/10 (8 October 2004)

After seeing the original Resident Evil, I had great expectations from the second chapter (of a possible trilogy?). after seeing it I can say I quite disappointed. Of course, the movie is well done, and I don't have any complains about the actors and their acting, still - The so well known plot of some innocent citizens locked up in a city full of zombies returns again and again and again (but to be honest, this is the best of all movies with the same plot).
While in the first movie you could feel the fear and the thrill, here you will see some nice action parts but no more. A lot of "bang-bang" and none of the sophistication from the first movie. This what disappointed me the most.
The ending, which I won't tell of course, was a bit of surprising and left many questions opened to what happened in the last 5 minutes of the movie (what led me to the conclusion of making the third, and maybe the final Resident Evil).
