Summary: Great movie!
Review: Having never played the video game, I bought this movie only because of the star, the ever beautiful Milla Jovovich. I've really enjoyed a lot of her past films. That said, this movie floored me. I've seen several, video game to big screen adaptations in the past, most of which were horrible. This is not the case. Resident Evil is an absolutely great movie that has some great acting on everybody's parts. I'f you've not taken the time to watch this movie, correct that.

Review: What a great film!
I don't understand critics - This movie is a Zombie/Biohazzard/corporate conspiracy thriller based on a COMPUTER GAME, for goodness' sake. If someone is fool enough to approach it expecting an art-house quality production then they deserve to be disappointed.
RESIDENT EVIL does what it says on the tin - takes an atmospheric and scary game and successfully tranplants it to the silver screen in a way that is FAR superior to the recent TOMB RAIDER travesty (Angelina Jolie excepted, of course)
The pace doesn't let up, the atmosphere is heavy & creepy, and the acting is remarkably above-par. MILLA JOVOVITCH merely confirms what I thought after THE FIFTH ELEMENT; She is a very good actress capable of some pretty intense work, as well as being very suited to the role physically.
I'm not a follower of the games so can't really comment on that aspect, but I do know that the ending was very similar to the start of RESIDENT EVIL 2 (the game) so a sequel seems inevitable (Fine by me!)
Of the extras, MAKE SURE you listen to the entire audio commentary at some point. MICHELLE RODRIGUEZ is a very smart, funny lady & Milla comes across as a hillarious (and perhaps a little crackers) personality!

Summary: "Resident Evil" is a noisy mess
Review: I`m one of the fans of the video game {Resident Evil} the game is really scary but with the movie nothing scary here except
for some awful acting and lame special effects in fact the video game is a lot more fun than the film.
All we hope for is some cool special effects and fight scenes But even on that level, "Resident Evil" is a disappointment.
I do not think being a fan of the game could've possibly improved my enjoyment of this film.

Summary: a surprise
Review: From all the bad hype this movie received I thought it would be a stinker.Was I wrong.I found it to be exiting from start to finish.I took away 1 star for the so-so beginning.It has a good story line based on the capcom game.The director managed to keep excessive gore in check yet still produce a shocking movie.I would reccommend it to either a action or horror buff.

Summary: Calling all Adrenaline Junkies!
Review: Zombies and guns. Trapped. Zombies and guns. Running. Zombies and guns... It may sound like B-grade, popcorn, adolescent male fodder, but Resident Evil is actually a well-crafted movie of the survival-horror genre. Eschewing gore in favor of imagination, it skimps on the on-screen bloodbath, and instead plays a guessing game that keeps the viewer on the edge of their seat.The scenario is that in the ultra secret military lab of the Umbrella Corporation, an extremely volatile virus has been set loose. The alarm is triggered, and the Red Queen, an artificial intelligence system, quarantines "the hive" to prevent the virus from reaching Raccoon City, trapping the workers in the process. In an effort to save the survivors and salvage the research, a team of commandoes is sent in to reboot the Red Queen, before she seals the Hive permanently. A simple objective, but one immediately complicated by the discovery of our protagonist, Alice, a young woman suffering from amnesia. She has no memory, but the Team Lead recognizes her as an employee of the Umbrella Corporation, so she is taken into the hive with them. What she finds there makes her doubt that she wants her memory back. It may sound like overdone tripe, but Resident Evil (RE) takes some of the old horror cliches and makes them new again. Alice's memory loss is handled with intelligence, and enough mystery to keep the viewer guessing. The gore is minimal, as the film culls its scares from sound cues and implication rather than onscreen blood. Unlike so many other horror movies, it doesn't have gaping holes in it's plot (though there are a couple of lapses in continuity). Instead it cleverly weaves it's elements, slowly revealing how everything came to pass as it heads towards it climax. The coup de grace though, is the action. Milla Jovovich and Michelle Rodriguez put the "grrr!" in "girl." Wallflowers won't survive in the Hive, and these two ladies are intent on living. When the ammo's gone, they resort to hand to hand combat, taking a chunk out of their adversaries. I won't recommend RE to those who are faint of heart, or abhor lots of shooting, screaming, and scares. But for those that love a good action movie, pop a bag of popcorn, and make yourself comfy on the couch. You're in for a hell of a thrill ride. And when the movie's done, check out the special features. The 2-disc Collector's Edition coming later this year will have the lion's share, but the Special Edition is no slouch. There are several "Making of" featurettes, a music video by Slipnot, and a commentary track featuring the principal actors and the director. Definitely worth your dollar.
