Mutant zombies! Hot chicks! Explosions! Sheer idiocy! It's once more into the breach with "Resident Evil: Apocalypse," the second movie based on the popular, violent video game "Resident Evil." The first flick was a guilty pleasure, due in part to the presence of Milla Jovovich. She played Alice, a tawny, model-pretty action heroine pitted against legions of undead brain-munchers spawned by a virus leaked from the labs of the Umbrella Corporation. Milla is back for the sequel, but the gore and mania aren't quite so appealing this time around. Alice made it through the first film, although she and another survivor were captured and used in further experiments by the fiends at Umbrella. Things look like they've calmed down in Raccoon City, where the population had been decimated by zombification. But there's more contamination in Umbrella's secret underground facility, Yep, the plague is gonna get loose again. To make matters worse, a new mutant, codenamed Nemesis, is being sent after the genetically enhanced Alice. The cheesy effects belong on a Game Boy, the dialogue is dim, and the characters — the square-jawed, fearless soldier (Oded Fehr); the butt-kicking but sexy female cop (Sienna Guillory); the jive talking, pimp-styled comic relief (Mike Epps); the tortured scientist (Jared Harris); the wicked military mastermind (Thomas Kretschmann) — are thinner than cardboard. | |||
