      I think

      Watched the first Resident Evil, completely subverted my imagination. The filmmakers are so bold in expressing their fears of the catastrophic consequences of technological developments that the camera is as bold as a horror film. I have never seen such a pessimistic movie before. Even the final protagonist of a disaster movie like "The Day After Tomorrow" still wins a temporary victory by virtue of his courage, tenacity and other excellent qualities. A little victory against a painful...

      .

      As a thriller, it does not fall into the stereotyped plot of a year or the sensual scene of blood spurting, but rather renders a tense atmosphere; as a science fiction film, its background is credible, giving zombies Similar themes retain extraordinary authenticity, and can even trigger people's reflection on the abuse of technology; as a game-changing movie, it can not only be faithful to the setting of the game, but also has its own unique sense of cinema. All in all, this movie is really...

      classic

      As the first part of the entire series, Resident Evil is also the one with the best reputation. The main line is clear, the tasks are clear, and the game plot is perfectly restored. The umbrella company Umbrella is a drug company that secretly conducts T-virus research, and has built a base called underground in Raccoon City. Alice and another company security guard form a team of fake couples to protect the entrance to the hive. In order to steal the T virus to sell, Alice's fake...

      The originator of biochemistry

      After watching the first one, I felt that the author of the film was entertaining the public and making film and television, and at the same time, he also gave people a lot of room for reflection. Is Resident Evil only in movies? Why do I feel like this scene is very close to us? Let us stand in front of life, money, feelings, all are discouraged, in front of life, everything is powerless. From the very beginning, accept the baptism of life. Some people will lead a boring life all...

    Evaluation action

    This sci-fi film with a horrifying reality outside of biochemistry has its own unique features: the two lines are parallel, the black and white tones are concise, and the fight is clean and neat. It can basically justify itself. The red and black double Alice's styling and acting skills are impressive. Bright, a section of Special Forces members being laser cut is especially classic.
