  • Resident Evil - Porcupine (12/12/2002 4:42:09 AM)
    Walked up to the local video store with Ninja and his girlfriend while fat Mike goes off and buys some alcohol. We have troubles deciding. Resident Evil is there but Leanne doesn't want to see it. There's not anything else that she want's to see, she's tired and probably won't see the whole of any movie we get so we get Resident Evil anyways. Besides - she stopped us from seeing it at the cinema and this is a kind of revenge. Not that I am into that.

    I have seen a couple reviews for this movie and they were all pretty negative. I guess that's just the way critics are.

    Sure this movie has plot holes, but that is not what the entertainment is about. It's obviously not an intellectual piece, I don't know why people try and treat all films as though they should be some sort of documentary. I can pick stories apart too, but at least I can see the movie for what it is. Entertainment. If people have trouble letting their imagination have some fun then too bad for them.

    Leanne left us three guys to do all the watching when the elevator scene looked as though it may get a little messy.

    Milla Jovovich, the female lead, is gorgeous! She gets to play a very strong character and kicks some serious zombie butt with a couple extraordinary stunts that had the three of us cheering! As did some of the other stunts throughout. The pace is great except towards the end where things tend to wind down a little, but the ending itself is rather cool, in my opinion. Resolution isn't everything.

    Note that there is nudity, but you really can't make too much out. Even when you run back over the scene a couple times using slow motion and freeze framing.

    This is well worth seeing if you want some light plot, high paced action type movie. Great fun!

    Aw dude. Look up "subtlety" in the dictionary will ya!

    I think you're in need of a "Time Out" session. You just sit in the corner for an hour and think about what you did.

    Hey,
    I'm not the one using freeze and slow motion.

    ;P

    It was all experimental, I assure you. We were worried about the rating being too light so had to ensure that everything was safe to view.

    On a different note, did you know that PowerDVD takes pretty good screen shots?

    No... I wasn't,
    you should post a shot or two.
