This was a tough one. I reviewed all four films and discussed the games as well, so it's a bit longer than I wanted it to be, but not as long as I feared it would be:

Good call on these. The first one, while a decent movie, was very disappointing for having nothing to do with the game ... and barely any zombies! Two is good, the rest stink. The dialogue in the game sounds like a bad high school play.

I didn't realize James Purefoy was in RE. He's my boy.

I'll tell you--lack of zombies notwithstanding, I still get chills watching those scenes of people getting sliced up by those laser beams.

So yeah, not a great movie, but not the worst movie either.

I never saw any of the sequels.

I just watched that Biohazard 2 commercial on YouTube. I was hoping it would be some kind of epic two minute commercial or something. Oh well.

Somehow all of the RE films have awesome casts. I'm guessing none of these actors who signed on to the sequels ever watched any of the RE films.

Then again, maybe they did. I'd appear in a Resident Evil movie.
