A very entertaining movie and definetly worth watching.milla Jovovich is a model who now is a Infected zombie killer.For some odd reason she looks hot as hell in this movie but now to the review.

Story:A girl named Alice,who looks very good, battles infected zombies in an underground construction.She faces all kinds of creepy things and finds allies along the way.

I like the storyline of this movie just because it is very well done...No it does not officially follow everything in the games but thats the beauty of it.Think outside the box.It is a very fun movie to watch because the infected zombies in the movie are scary and look realistic in one way or another.I dont think there will be a better zombie movie with great action like this but there is always that chance.

This movie really captured the real feel of terror and fear that I enjoy but maybe some did not like the cheesy lines they delivered but most of it was good.By all means watch this movie as it is worth it.If you want to see a hot girl go around shooting all kinds of infected people,then this is the movie for you.

Surprisingly Entertaining.

I was generally surprised that I liked this movie, not being a fan of either of it's stars. I decided to give the movie a try since it does deal with one of my favorite horror topics...zombies!

As a horror movie Resident Evil fails miserably, it's not scary and contains only small amounts of suspense. It is much better as an action film although much of the action is chaotic, accompanied by lame heavy metal/thrash music. But seeing as it is based on a video game and made primarily for teenage boy video game addicts it is quite good in and of itself.

The movie plays well, even though it is apparent that some scenes have been cut to achieve an R-rating. The characters do what they need to do in order to survive.

One small problem with the movie is the relative lack of zombie screen time. They do appear in two major scenes but most of the time the hallways are clear. This hive was supposed to employ thousands of people but you only ever see 100 zombies at the most. Also, the humans seem to be able to travel easily wherever they have to go until it is time for another action sequence. It would have been better if they constantly ran into single zombies which they were able to easily dispose of, but this is nit-picking on my part.

Overall I enjoyed the movie and I have never seen, let alone played, the video game. I'm not sure if this movie will have the staying power over multiple viewings for me (like Aliens) but it's a very good single viewing action picture. Easily the best movie I have seen based on a video game. Despite it's flaws Resident Evil rates a 7 out of 10, if taken more seriously this could have been a really good movie. It would have been nice to see a George Romero version.
