Resident Evil: Apocalypse

Post by **CinnamonGirl** » 13-09-04, 12:27 pm

This movie opened up this weekend and was number 1 for the weekend as well.

For all those that were a fan of the Resident Evil games, I am sure that you as well were waiting for this sequel to finally come out....since I have been seeing trailers for it for months......FINALLY!

I really loved this flick! Great sequel to the first movie and really completely different from the first one as well.

Mila kicks ass as an action star...she did in the first one and was kick-ass as well in The Fifth Element. Nice cross-over from a career in modeling....especially since most models-turn-actress tend to suck at it.

Action was great......zombie action was cool....I would have preferred more though. They still had the menacing Lickers and the zombie dogs. New to this movie was the Nemesis...if you remember the end of the first flick, the guy Matt who survived with Mila (Alice) was taken away by the Umbrella Corp after he was infected by the T-Virus which had begun to mutate......well, he was back as the Nemesis. Totally cool how they brought the video game creature to life in this! Real bad-ass guy!

As I said, lots of action...lots of zombies and freaky creatures and plenty of bad guys....even had member of the S.T.A.R team from the games in the flick so that was cool as well.

I recommend it to Resident Evil game lover as well as people who didn't play the game but perhaps saw the first one.

CinnamonGirl gives it a big

ooo oo must see

. I gave a HUGE thumbsup to the 1st res evil movie. I actually didn't think it was gonna be much good, with it having Mila in it (She's a hottie, but the 5th Element sucked, or maybe it was Brucie that ruined that for me --Hes John Maclean, he'll always be John Maclean

)

Not a fan of the res evil games though

goes off to suprnova :search:

I liked The Fifth Element but it is ok if you didn't.

I havn't even seen the First RE movie.... like voidster I thought it was going to suck.

Might check thsi one out though if it has the Nemesis in it

....... I loved that character in the game....... that was actually the last RE game I actually enjoyed, got bored of the whole survival horror genre by then.

But I loved the first 3 games on the PS1 and the Nemesis was great in the third game, when you'd hear him stomping along at random moments in the game

........ he was one tough bastard

Since then the games have bored me somewhat....... although the new Resident Evil on PS2 is going to be online and looks quite interesting

This movie was filmed in Toronto. The helicopter scene in front of the 2 curved buildings and small domed one which is the Toronto City Hall. This building was also used in Star Trek.

That is the CN Tower. It's the tallest free standing structure in the world....or was. It has a revolving restraunt at the top with a glass floor.

Just got back from the movie and dinner and it kicked ass.

It helps also if you know the RE storyline.

Yes it does....wish they would have stayed a bit more on the story line of the game but I guess that would have been a bit difficult.

The mansion was always scary.

hehe RE has never really scared me. The only scary thing I can think of is that this could happen in real life. Imagine if Umbrella did exist?

Anyway..at least they had the licker in this one.

And Nemesis! Even though they made Nemesis look like a good guy at the end.

Yeah....made you feel sorry for him and all. That sucked.

yeah Nemesis in the videogame is a bad arse. He can't be killed easily..lol

You kill him, and he just gets resurrected.

Post by **CinnamonGirl** » 22-09-04, 1:21 pm

Tell me about it.

You had to make sure you were plenty healthy and had lots of ammo to kill him....one of the hardest parts of the whole game.
