Great film!

Resident Evil: Apocalypse is a great film that has a good cast which includes Milla Jovovich, Sienna Guillory, Oded Fehr, Thomas Kretschmann, Sophie Vavasseur, Razaaq Adoti, and Matthew G. Taylor. The acting by all of these actors is very good. Jovovich in My opinion had one heck of a performance. She worked very hard fighting and handling the weaponry. The zombies are filmed really cool! The RE characters such as the Lickers and the zombie canines are cool. Nemesis is awesome in this film! The movie is filmed very good. The music is outstanding by Jeff Dana. I recommend that you stop by Amazon.com and buy the score! The film is quite interesting and the movie really keeps you going until the end. This is a very good and thrilling film and I don;t understand why this film didn't do well at the box office and now it has a IMDb rating of 5.6/10. You got tons of great action, some RE characters from the games, and whole lot more! What more could you want? If you Milla Jovovich, Sienna Guillory, Oded Fehr, Thomas Kretschmann, the rest of the cast in the film, Resident Evil video games and the first film, Horror, Sci-Fi, Action, and interesting films then I strongly recommend you to see this film today!
