Resident Evil: Apocalypse (DVD) ... DVD released 28 December, 2004 at Columbia TriStar / Features of the DVD: AC-3, Closed-captioned, Colour, Dolby, DVD-Video, Full Screen, Special Edition, Subtitled, Widescreen, NTSC / The lovely Milla Jovovich is back with a vengeance as amnesiac, genetically-altered zombie ass-kicker, Alice, in this sequel to the 2002 hit film, which is based on the video game. This time around the sinister Umbrella Corporation sends a team of investigators into their destroyed underground lab (the ground-zero of carnage in the previous film) and unwittingly unleash the still-staggering zombies and monsters out into the population of Raccoon City. Soon Umbrella has evacuated all of their own key employees and has shut everyone else inside to be devoured. A mastermind chemist's daughter gets left behind in the confusion, and she is the one ticket out for Alice and a handful of dwindling survivors, including the equally hot, skimpily dressed, and almost-as-tough lady cop, Jill Valentine (Sienna Guillory). There's some nifty motorcycle riding, plenty of bullets and splattering blood, and even a new monster--the hulking, heavily-armored, seriously ugly Nemesis. Comic actor Mike Epps is great as a pimped-out hustler who handles the whole dead-coming-back-to-life thing with cool nonchalance. In some ways, this nonstop creep show is even an improvement over the original, with a pervasive mood of nihilistic corporate dehumanization adding extra concern about the future of civilization to the mix of shooting, dying, punching, and munching.

 ... Nemesis, and Resident Evil Code: Veronica, but bafflingly makes a film that is just more insulting as it clearly just treads over the franchise without any regard for what happened in the games or what fans want. The film continues the travels of Alice (Milla Jovovich), who is now trying to shut down Umbrella after they re-opened the Hive. She meets police officer Carlos Olivera (Oded Fehr), who is trying to keep the police, along with S.T.A.R.S member Jill Valentine (Sienna Guillory). However, with the evil Nemes...more

Premium Review Resident Evil: Apocalypse (DVD): Meet your Nemisis (680 words)
by - written on 14/05/09 (Very useful, 43 readings)
Rating:

The world of films has long since been riddled with computer game spin-offs. Generally these are dire, melancholy affairs not worthy of note. No matter how good the game was, the films tend not to match up. Let us remember Kylie's dire effort in Streetfighter, or more recently the painfully bad Max Payne movie. Like all things though, there is sometimes a film that rises from the ashes, like a pheonix, to conquer the movie world. Resident evil made a slowish start. The first film was watchable, and for a fan of the games like myself, it was entertaining. It seems, that the series is getting stronger, though, as apocalypse turns out to be a rip-roaring ...  Read the complete review

Resident Evil Apocalypse is a 2004 science fiction/ horror film and the sequel to the 2002 film Resident Evil. It was made on a budget of £21.5,000,000 and grossed an estimated £64,697,418 at the box office. The critics ended up disliking this film even more than the previous instalment, with one critic stating that this movie is an utter waste of time! The film is rated 15 and runs for approximately 98 minutes. This film is directed by Alexander Witt, the previous was done by Paul Anderson who decided to take a backseat role as the producer, maybe he didn't want to deal with all the flack he got for the last film but in the mean time still make some money! ...  Read the complete review

Premium Review Resident Evil: Apocalypse (DVD): Popcorn movie - No Oscar But Plenty of Action ! (841 words)

It started snowing at home on Sunday, so we decided to watch Resident Evil Apocalypse. Personally I can take or leave these kind of movie's - rehashing the original - which came from a computer game - I'm not that fussed. I wasn't expecting much and told my other half - if I fall asleep don't worry - just don't let me sleep for more than half an hour. Not so I wouldn't miss the end - no - So I would be able to sleep at night. What came for the next 97 minutes was, not what I expected, it was actually ok - and I didn't fall asleep! General Story 2002 - Resident Evil the movie was released; this came off the back of the computer game. ...  Read the complete review

Premium Review What Did They Do To You? (1758 words)

I’m not a huge fan of video game to movie adaptations, I have to say. The track record isn’t terribly good and the original Resident Evil movie was no masterpiece. It was a bit of a surprise, therefore, when they decided to make a sequel and true to the law of diminishing returns, Apocalypse isn’t even as good as its lacklustre counterpart. The film picks up the first when left off, almost to the moment. The Umbrella Corporation, a multi-billion dollar corporation, has been researching viral weaponry deep beneath the surface of Racoon City. A lethal virus (the T-Virus) was leaked into the underground research station called The Hive, killing all the scientists ...  Read the complete review

Resident Evil: Apocalypse was released in 2004 and is the first sequel in this series. This film is rated 15, the same as the first film, due to strong language and constant violence and it is 98 minutes long. Plot After being taken in by scientists in the last film, she wakes up in the hospital with wires plugged in all over her body and covered by a tiny bit of cloth. She realises she's all alone and that she needs to get out of there, but when she picks the lock and escapes, she see's that the city is deserted. Fearing that the virus will spread further than Racoon City, Umbrella decides to shut down the city and only let through people ...  Read the complete review
