Yes, Resident Evil was FINALLY released in Australia today (don\'t ask me why it took so friggen long to get here).
I went in there with pretty low expectations, thinking that if it would be somewhere along the lines of Tomb Raider. I was pleasently surprised. The opening sequence was very impressive, especially with the elevator sequence.
The plot was great, so was script (for a videogame movie anyway) and I thought that both leading ladies gave great performances. Matt (Eric someone) was also very good.
The zombies were very good, and the sequence just before the Queen Ant with the laser thingo was very impressive.
I also liked the way the movie didn\'t finish when they got outta the mansion. It was good to lead it on, to show what had happened, and hopefully continue on with a sequel.
The only gripe I had was the licker/hunter. It looked really fake. Milla Jovovich was very good, and I liked the way it explained the whole Umbrella thing (even though I finished all the games, it answered alot of questions).
For a videogame movie, or for that matter a movie itself, it was very good.
