The city is sealed off
leaving the military unit STARS behind.
They're only hope of freedom is to find
and rescue a millionaire's daughter.
Alice (Milla Jovovich) returns from the
original genetically altered and teams
with them. Umbrella also unleases the
Nemesis project.
While trying to fight for survival from
zombies they also realise that they are
also crawling out of the grave as well as
dealing with an evil leader named Major
Cain (Thomas Kretschmann) by forcing
Alice to fight to the death with the evil
Nemesis along with trying to flee their
city before it self destructs.
The sequel wasn't
as good as the first one but we spot many
great special effects and more martial
arts fighting against the zombie's and
the enemies too. There's also some
terrific creepy moment with zombies
rising from the graveyard and attacking
which looked more exciting than watching Return
of the Living Dead cause they
spring right to life after they crawl out
which was more terrifying.
There's many good stuntwork used in the
film battling around the city area and
some mobster scene's too which is a bit
disturbing in which there's a moment of
peer pressure on surviving too.
Plus there's close to the ending there
seems like a resurrecting moment which
boggles your mind thinking "What the
hell?" but it was done in great
taste wanting more and looking forward
the to second sequel too.
However most of the plotline just
surrounds a group of people battling for
their lives around a small area of a city
with zombie's attacking. Yet it can be
fun and exciting to watch. Just not alot
of plotlines on this one that's all.
The acting still
looked good in which Milla Jovovich
shows terrific energy and aggression by
reprising her role and really knew how to
tough it out with her battles and came
across terrifically as a warrior. She
shows great anger and aggressions to what
she did.
Sienna
Gillory shows a great expressionless
attitude and also portrays nicely in
battle. She came across like those
androids from Terminator.
I found her to be one of my favourite
characters in the film thanks to her
performance in it.
Thomas Kretschmann really brought
his evil charm to the screen just right.
He really made it believeable having his
forceful manipulative attitude as if he
was a leader of a Mafia of some sort. His
voice sounded very sleazy like too.
Sophie Vavasseur really came across
impressively as the little girl in the
flick and focused incredibly well at what
she did making herself out to be a caring
type as well as having a clver attitude
too. I can really see her going places
due to her performance in this one giving
her acting career the perfect boost.
Jared Harris was another noticeable
actor in a wheelchair showing a perfect
seriousness to his role. He made what he
did convincing enough to prove himself to
be a good actor. He also had the right
serious looks too which was a bonus to
his character.
Mike Epps was quite a ham with his
performance in the film as a hyped up one
while trying to kill off the zombies
which was necessary since we need to have
some humorous character for a flick like
this and he pulled it off perfectly. Well
done.
Zack Ward didn't have a huge part in
the film but I found he stood out nicely
with what he had to do showing a good
anxious attitude and insecurity too. He
also knew how to act stubborn and
aggressive as well.
There's some bare breasted
zombie women wobbling along a rough
street area.
Milla Jovovich has her full nude
body in a tank of water with tubes in
her.
Many bodies are being
bitten by zombies
Some chewed up body parts are revealed
Gruesome looking zombie dogs
Lots of bloody stabbings and gunshots
Alexander Witt really
packs a punch with his work on this film
as there's some good close up shots on Sienna
Guillroy turning onto a station and
hearing what's going on as well as
showing her loading a gun and preparing
to go for battle.
Then we have some good moments with her
going in to shoot anyone who's infected
and speaking bluntly towards other who
want to survive.
There's a nice shot on Milla Jovovich
in a white area room waking up and
screaming with her pulling off tubes
attached to her.
There's good camera shots looking up on
extra's as zombie's running and trying to
attack.
There's some good blocking performed by
Zach Ward in a cathedral pointing
his gun at some other supporting cast
members and acting paranoid which looked
well energised.
There's a good shot on a motorcycle
smashing through a glass of the cathedral
with Jovovich coming out and
using her weapons as well as her martial
arts on the extra's as zombie's with
great fast action camera shots with her
doing this.
There's a nice brief dialogue with Guillroy
introducing herself to Jovovich
complimenting her skills against the
zombie's which looked quite natural.
There's many good shots on Mike Epps driving
his vehcile and running over extras as
zombie's acting nutty which brings on
some good humor.
There's some good anxious moment with Jovovich
suddenly pointing her gun at Razaaq
Adoti after she finds out he's
infected with other supporting cast
pointing guns at her which looked well
paced.
There's many great shots on extra's as
zombie's rising up from the grave with
the supporting cast shooting them and
running away and the extra's as zombie's
running after them and jumping on some of
them too. This was one of the creepiest
directions in the film.
There's a good moment with a bunch of
features extra's dragging down supporting
actress Sandrine Holt which
looked well done and intense.
There's a good stunt shot on Jovovich
sliding down a building and then
getting into action with her fighting
against bit part actors Alex Courey,
John Detoro, Billy Khoury and
Sava Drayton as people in suits
battling him as well as good close up
shots on them using blades with her
grabbing them and using them.
There's also a good moment with Thomas
Kretschmann acting evil and trying
to force Jovovich to battle his
beast while he's holding his gun towards
any of the supporting cast that are
helpless in which the way this scenerio
was directed looked a bit disturbing.
There's plenty of great quick action
shots on Jovovich with her
battling against supporting actor Matthew
G. Taylor as the Nemesis creature
with great close up shots too.
There's also many terrific scene's in a
helicopter getting shattered up with the
main cast inside it while it's ready to
crash which looked exciting.
There's a good moment with supporting
actor Iain Glenn trying to
communicate Jovovich after
resurrecting her in which she does well
trying to force out her words and then
when she speaks she does well springing
into action and attacking anyone in her
way.
There's lots more good
composing this time done by Jeff
Danna with some computerised gloomy
sounds for the zombie scene's. Plus
there's good drum poundings too. Plus
there's nice techno sounding classical
music too with the suspenseful violin
playing.
[first
lines]
Alice: My name is Alice. I worked
for the Umbrella Corporation, the largest
and most powerful commercial entity in
the world. I was head of security at a
secret high-tech facility, The Hive, a
giant underground laboratory developing
experimental viral weaponry. But there
was an incident. The virus escaped and
everybody died. Trouble was... they
didn't stay dead.
[during
a zombie outbreak in the Police Station]
Jill Valentine: I'm leaving town,
and I suggest you all do the same.
L.J.:
[a Zombie walks in front of his car]
GTA, Motherfucker!
[he runs over the Zombie, which flips
over his car]
L.J.: Yeah! Ten points!
Jill
Valentine: Those were some pretty
slick moves back there. I'm good, but I'm
not that good.
Nicholai
Sokolov: [wrestling with a dog
infected with the T-Virus] I've got
this bitch!
[sees another dog coming to assist its
friend]
Nicholai Sokolov: Oh, shit.
[Alice

Alice:
How long ago have you been bitten?
Carlos Olivera: Three hours.
L.J.: What?

Let's get out of here...
Jill
Valentine: Angela Ashford, huh?
That's a pretty grown-up name for a
little girl.
Angie Ashford: I'm not a little
girl. Besides... all my friends call me
Angie.
Jill Valentine: Angie, huh? I like
that.
[to
Terri, on how to kill a zombie with a gun]

in the head.
Major

My name is Alice and I remember
everything.
