\"\"<\/a>Resident Evil: Apocalypse<\/em><\/strong> isn\u2019t terrible and never made me angry, yet doesn\u2019t get near the good-bad realm. However, I still like Milla Jovovich in the lead here and the addition of Sienna Guillory was nice.<\/p>\n

THE MOVIE \u2014 2\/5<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n
\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

\n

Plot Synopsis: <\/strong>A deadly virus from a secret Umbrella Corporation laboratory underneath Raccoon City is exposed to the world. Umbrella seals off the city to contain the virus, creating a ghost town where everyone trapped inside turns into a mutant zombie. Alice (MILLA JOVOVICH), a survivor from Umbrella’s secret lab, meets former Umbrella security officer Jill Valentine (SIENNA GUILLORY) and mercenary Carlos Oliviera (ODED FEHR). Together, they search for a scientist (JARED HARRIS) who might be able to help.<\/p>\n

Quick Hit Review: <\/strong>I\u2019m all for dumb action films but there has to be other elements, maybe it\u2019s fun characters, an engaging enough storyline or just made you feel like you had a good time when it was all over and done. While yes, Resident Evil: Apocalypse<\/em><\/strong> has some ridiculous action scenes, in the end, I wasn\u2019t in the least bit entertained, mainly because, as I stated in other reviews concerning zombies, I\u2019m not much a fan of them as I don\u2019t find them very scary, ditto for mutated monsters.<\/p>\n

The film is by no means horrible and I did manage to sit through without becoming angry, yet having now watched this a couple of times, it is what it is for me: a forgettable bad movie and yet another poorly made video game adaptation. At least it kept my attention watching Milla Jovovich and Sienna Guillory kick some ass, so that\u2019s a positive.<\/p>\n
