I rather liked the movie. Besides, I like good zombie movies; unfortunately around 99% of them are rubbish. The only good ones I've ever seen are the Night of the Living Dead trilogy, the remakes of Night of the Living Dead and Dawn of the Dead, 28 Days later, and then Resident Evil 1 & 2.

And I didn't think Alice with superhuman powers was a big deal. It just begs the question: Who'd win in a fight between Alice and Wesker?

It's not in the games as far as I know...

I'm actually a pretty big fan of zombie movies too. But this movie doesn't really have zombies after the first half... which is kinda where Alice takes over the lead role from Jill. I guess it's all a matter of opinion... I really thought what they did with Nemesis at the end was ultra stupid.

Yeah, Spoiler: I was kind of disappointed he died after only being hit with a couple hundred bullets and a flaming helicopter. But whattyagonnado? And, Nemesis switching loyalties was definitely not good. Not terribly bad, considering the context, but definitely not good.

what a silly question it is obvious that the almighty Wesker would win, he rox.

And Nemesis switches loyalties?? does that mean he turns...........good.............cos that just sounds super stupid in my head, and he dies differently, whats all tht about, everyone knows Jill killed him with a big gun thing (in the game) this film sounds stupider <-------is that even a word, and stupider everytime I hear summet else about it.

This post is just a big spoiler, for the movie and for the games.

Spoiler: Yeah, Nemmy switches sides in the end. But it *does* make sense, since he's that guy from the first movie, the other one that survived the Hive along with Alice.

As for Alice vs. Wesker, I'm not sure who'd win; Wesker is definitely faster and stronger, but now Alice apparently has the ability to kill people with her mind. Unless the movie was trying to imply that Alice got the T-Veronica virus, in which case they're probably an even match; with Alice maybe having a bit of an edge since she's gotten some extra work from Umbrella. Wesker's definitely cooler, but unless his bad self appears in Resident Evil 4, I'm not sure he can compete.

Did anyone notice this one was farrrr more comdeic than the previous movie? I think that worked to their advantage also.

Well, with the advent of Alice, it puts a new spin on the whole Nemesis story, and what (and who) Nemesis is, and I thought it was played out rather well. There's a really good reason for what happened. I don't know if Nemesis is given any background or anything in the game, but it is in this movie, and that's what makes the scene so awesome and gives it reason.

I saw the movie last night. It was alright. I liked it infinitely more than the Resident Evil games, which I hate. The movie had far too many "cheap" scare scenes. What I mean by that is when they try to surprise the audience with a sudden startling action on screen. I HATE when movies do that because it is the cheapest way to get a scare out of someone. It does not leave a lasting impression and is not scary. The movie Signs managed to be quite scary with very, very few of these scenes.

I can't really make the connection between the movies and the games. Strangely enough, Resident Evil is the only game to movie series that I'm not familiar with.

This isn't my fault. I just simply cannot get through the games. I find the control system horrid, and the survival horror genre just does nothing for me.
