The plot is not as good as the first one, but there are still bright spots

Compared with the first part, "Resident Evil 2" is closer to the game-it can be seen that many elements are in the game "Resident Evil 3" (church, tram, lighter, helicopter, chasing the Lord...) There are also Jill and Card. Los. The prototype of the umbrella scientist and her daughter should be the second Dr. William and Shirley. But despite so many game elements, this film is obviously inferior to the first in narrative: the first one is the case of the heroine's amnesia, she keeps recalling during the escape process, and finally gets the truth; and this one is for me. It feels like the heroine runs around to get people together. . And the plot of the heroine and the chasing master made me extremely speechless.
But the editing of a TV show after Raccoon City was destroyed by the nuclear bomb was very shocking. In my opinion, it is the most exciting part of the whole film. It is also the reason why I scored five stars: the real video of the female anchor of the TV station in exchange for her life was easily said to be yes. The "forgery" and the "truth" are the "nuclear power plant accidents", and Gil and Carlos have become scapegoats, and the real murderer, the umbrella company, has become heroes instead. The media that originally aimed at spreading the truth is actually nothing more than a plaything of power. It is extremely ironic to reverse black and white and help the gang to abuse them!
At the end of the film, Alice and her friends fled again, but obviously, the story does not end there. The umbrella will continue their criminal behavior until they themselves are destroyed.

Resident Evil: Apocalypse quotes

  • Major Cain: [to Alice, referring to her and the Nemesis] The two of you showed such promise, but we had to see you in action. And most impressive you've been. You're like brother and sister. Heightened speed, strength, agility, the same killer instincts. Parallel strands of research. And now... we discover which is superior.

  • Alice: How long ago have you been bitten?

    Carlos Olivera: Three hours.

    L.J.: What?

    Alice: Today's your lucky day.

    L.J.: [to Carlos] You should have told me you were bit, motherfucker, I'm hanging with you and shit!
