| What a pleasant surprise :) I
played all the games on my playstation and really love horror
movies. Even if the stress of watching these films scare the
poop out of me - LOL. I had read some very bad reviews before
seeing Resident Evil and coming out of the theater, my friend
and I could not understand what they were talking about. I
realy enjoyed this movie. It works great for the type of movie
it is and I must say the best videogame adaptation made so
far.
The visuals of the set designs are really cool and give you
the creeps. I must have jumped out of my seat at least 5 times.
The flashbacks are paced just right and though the zombie
munching is not as discusting and graphic as the George Romero
Dead trilogy (Night, Dawn and Day of the dead) they still
look great. Even the Zombie dogs.
The pacing of the film is a lot like in Aliens, searching
to get out not knowing what's around the next corner. One
of my fave scenes is when the Marine Types go to shut down
the Red Queen Computer Terminal. It's not a coincidence there
are LOTS of lights in that room :)
So if you like the games and horror movies and to get stressed
out for 2 hours, Resident Evil is worth the money. I enjoyed
it more then Time Machine. I know I will buy it on DVD when
it comes out in September.
