Ralph R Resident Evil (2002) is a solid action-horror film that takes the core idea of the video game series and spins it into something original. The plot is simple but effective, following a group trying to survive in a high-tech underground facility after a deadly outbreak. It doesn't just rely on zombies for tension; the movie builds suspense through corporate secrecy, AI threats, and bioengineered monstrosities. The blend of sci-fi elements with action and horror keeps things engaging from start to finish, making it stand out from traditional zombie flicks. Paul W. S. Anderson's directing gives the film a sleek, fast-paced energy that keeps the tension high. The cinematography complements this with clean, stylized shots, making the action sequences crisp and easy to follow. The laser hallway scene is one of the film's most iconic moments, showcasing both the film's brutal efficiency and its sci-fi horror tone. The set design, particularly The Hive, feels sterile and claustrophobic, adding to the atmosphere. The action choreography is sharp, and Milla Jovovich's presence elevates the film. She delivers a strong performance, blending vulnerability and badassery in a way that makes Alice instantly likable. The script keeps things moving at a good pace, avoiding unnecessary exposition while letting the mystery unfold naturally. Some of the dialogue is straightforward, but it fits the film's tone, prioritizing momentum over complexity. The score, co-composed by Marilyn Manson, adds a heavy, industrial edge that enhances the movie's aggressive, cyberpunk feel. Overall, Resident Evil is a fun mix of action, horror, and sci-fi that still holds up, especially if you enjoy fast-paced, stylish survival thrillers. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/02/25 Full Review D3Z 1 Paul W S Andersen's take on Resident Evil feature film failed to adapt aspects on what made the video game as an icon. Despite some action flicks, the film ended up being underwhelming with a bland script and story, choppy editing and uninteresting characters that do not see much growth throughout its runtime. Rated 1/5 Stars •  Rated 1 out of 5 stars 01/25/25 Full Review D P Strange thing about this story is that I did not know the general plot before watching it. I am thinking this is a futuristic sci-fi action movie based on the first half hour. Then it suddenly takes a turn into a zombie movie. It was the sharpest head swivel ever. It turned out to be entertaining.

What did you expect an oscar level performance out of an early video game based movie? Is this movie video game accurate? Nope it's not but acting like it's some kind of disappointment, nah man you need to go watch other video game movies that we have now and especially the later installments of this franchise. Call it whatever you wanna call it, it's still a decent movie which you can watch. Don't get me wrong, I know it's far from perfect but definitely not a bad movie especially considering the fact that it can entertain.
