Sure, it's not a masterpiece, but it is near and dear to my heart.
EXTREME BIAS WARNING I am fully aware that the rating I gave this movie doesn't entirely fit the quality of the film, but here are my flimsy reasons why this movie is almost a 5 of 5-star movie:
- I am a major fan of the Resident Evil video games, and this is the one out of the Paul WS Anderson saga most similar to the games.
- I grew up watching this movie with my dad over and over, so it has a good deal of nostalgia for me.
- The introduction of Jill Valentine and Carlos Olivera is awesome!
- The story following the fall of Raccoon City to hordes of undead while a small group of heroes tries to survive is my favorite plot of the franchise.
- Lots of zombies and lots of action.
