Rezident Evil: Apocalypse


I liked the first Resident Evil movie so I thought I'd see this one too but unfortunately it could not escape the sequel curse (but then very few have) of not living up its predecessor.
The movie seems weird from the start, there are unncessary stunt scenes stuffed in that detract from the movie rather than enhance it.
The game's principal character Jill Valentine is in this one, though it seems she was added as an afterthought. There's a side story written to increase her role in the movie but the story revolves around Alice from the first movie.
Overall the direction and screenplay seems to fall flat in places and the movie pales in comparison to the first one.
