Resident Evil: Apocalypse (2004)
#66 on my Top 100 List
It's like Lara Croft: Tomb Raider but with zombies and Oded Fehr - what's not to love? I really do love Oded Fehr and he's never hotter than when he's kicking ass, whether it be zombies or mummies (like in the Mummy movies). The movie has some continuity issues, as well as costuming challenges - it tries to stay as true to the video game as possible, but some of those clothes they put on video game women defy the laws of physics, so making them into real costumes for a movie is hard and usually comes out ridiculous looking. Umbrella Corporation, the bad guys in this universe, are 100% evil, which is kind of unrealistic, but they follow through on that in the movie - they don't frak around. Or bluff, as one unfortunate character learns late in the film. This one's the second of the three live action Resident Evil movies but I think it has the most complete story and feel.
My Netflix rating: 5 stars
