Resident Evil: Apocalypse Trailer

Milla isn't a bad actor, but she needs some refinement in her work. I don't get what the big deal is over seeing her M&Ms, because I am not sexually attracted to her at all.

Rodriguez is a pug-faced hack of an actress, whose motivation for the film was apparently, "Act like you just took a bunch of Carnation Instant Bitch." That also seems to be her motivation for every role she's ever been in.

The theme for the Resident Evil games has always been dark and creepy, with a lot of detail and ambience. That's why the games worked. The setting for the film was a "mansion" (made up of an outdoor hallway and a bedroom), and an underground lab that's all bright and shiny.

The film, as a whole, wasn't the worst. But when you tag it as being an adaptation (or in this case, a prequel, though there already was a prequel being made for the games) to a video game series, there's a lot of needless changes that wrecked it. But if it wasn't an RE film, it would just be called "Aliens, but with Zombies."
