A high point of the franchise in this intense action-packed sequel

Rating: 6/10 (28 January 2017)

Filling in some details from the events right after the original, the sequel begins on a grander scale. All of Raccoon City falls victim to the infection of the T-Virus. Alice (Milla Jovovich) wakes up from experimentation and starts fighting zombies. The film introduces a new set of characters who struggle to survive the Apocalypse. Jill Valentine (Sienna Guillory) is a tough cop who isn't afraid to shoot a zombie in the head as the virus begins to spread. Carlos Olivera (Oded Fehr) is part of a tactical team that ventures into the city to help extract civilians. L.J. (Mike Epps) is a petty crook with custom pistols who is just trying to survive.
As the virus spreads, the military begins to quarantine all the citizens and only evacuate the important members of the Umbrella corporation. Major Cain (Thomas Kretschmann) leads the operation and is tasked with evacuating the scientist Dr. Ashford (Jared Harris) who tasks the remaining survivors with finding his daughter Angie (Sophie Vavasseur).
