Resident Evil: Apocalypse
Something evil's lurking in Raccoon City, and the fearless Alice (Milla Jovovich, reprising her role from the original film), is one of only a few willing to put her life on the line to investigate the malevolent force. A virus is attacking the area's denizens, turning them into the undead. With the help of her colleague, Jill (Sienna Guillory), Alice sets out to uncover the truth, even as she fends off her biggest enemy, Nemesis (Eric Mabius).

Apocalypse - Resident Evil 2 - NessView
For some reason, I like this better the first time I watched it. I certainly didn't mind it however, as I love zombie movies. It could have done with some more good zombie scenes though. It was more a clash of the Titans with the two Nemesis at the end.Holy Wow - TsTa
After watching the first movie and becomeing a fan of the series i was no doubt goging to rent this one too. I found the action very satisfying and always kept me at the edge of my seat. But this is probably not a movie i would recomend watching with a girl on a date.
Overall it was well worth the time investmentGood for what it is - SB1-
I'm not a fan of zombie movies, nor do I closely follow the RE games. As such, I went into this movie with zero expectations, I hadn't even seen the first one.
For what it is, I thought it was quite good. And by that I mean this is a shoot-em-up-action-survival-horror-zombie flick which means lots of fighting and explosions, little in the way of complex plot or character development. And that's fine by me. High drama is great but sometimes you need a purely escapist film that you don't need to think about. This movie fits the bill.
There weren't any gaping problems that I noticed in terms of plot holes or bad acting. I'm starting to think that Milla Jovovich is worth watching no matter what role she's in. She kicks butt as Alice.
If you're looking for a fun bit of mindless action with strong female leads, then by all means, give RE:A a try.
