RESIDENT EVIL: APOCALYPSE

Under discussion:

I don't know... 4 or 5 out of 10, I guess.  20 minutes into this, I began to regret my impulse to queue up RE: Apocalypse after watching RE for the first time.  It felt too much like a made-for-TV action flick.  Not a low budget "we're being creative with limited funds" flick.  A "we're cutting corners and using leftover tricks" sort of flick.

But I didn't *not* like it.  And now I feel obligated to catch the 2007 RE: Extinction that I didn't even know existed.  I just watched the trailer (thank you, Spout) and I liked what I saw... filling that gotta-have-my-cheeseball-action/horror craving.

Here's my beef with Apocalypse -- as the plot unfolded, it felt too much like an Alien Resurrection rehash.  Heroine is made almost perfect and shares some sort of deep bond with the enemy.  Sounds familiar, right?
