Resident Evil: Apocalypse Reviews

It is certainly bad news for cinema when a video game gets turned into a full-length feature film.

| Original Score: 1/4 | Jan 8, 2019

By-the-numbers gory horror flick -- not for kids.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Dec 28, 2010

Fans of the games will have fun spotting the Easter eggs on display, but precious little else. Indeed, the chief horror here is the cliffhanger promising a third instalment.

| Original Score: 1/5 | Apr 1, 2006

The heart plummets at the prospects for a follow-up.

| Feb 9, 2006

A zombie movie as dead-eyed and soulless as its walking dead villains.

| Original Score: 1/5 | Oct 6, 2004

This is strictly second-tier terror.

| Original Score: 1.5/5 | Sep 19, 2004

How quickly things change. Resident Evil: Apocalypse is terrible, free of any of the guileless charm or B-movie cheekiness that made the original such a repulsive joy.

| Original Score: 1/4 | Sep 18, 2004

Is it utopian to expect better of the next first-person shooter that comes to the screen?

| Original Score: 1/4 | Sep 17, 2004

The undead are back to stumbling in the dark, sometimes even in blurry slo-mo, making the many packs of them about as terrifying as the mobs waiting for Matt and Katie outside the Today studio.

| Original Score: D- | Sep 16, 2004

Obviously padded, too long on action, and painfully short on irony.

Full Review | Sep 14, 2004

Resident Evil: Apocalypse accomplishes the odd feat of having several things going on at once yet never being terribly exciting.

Full Review | Original Score: 2/5 | Sep 14, 2004

... dreadful piece of work.

Full Review | Sep 13, 2004

Alexander Witt's campy Resident Evil: Apocalypse. may be brain dead, but it's nonetheless also heartily, feverishly alive.

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Sep 11, 2004

Monstrous zombies rampage through a peaceful metropolis. Carnage is everywhere. Still, one can't help but yawn one's way through Resident Evil: Apocalypse.

| Original Score: 1/4 | Sep 10, 2004

It's junk, but it's fun junk, and its target audience won't be disappointed.

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Sep 10, 2004

Almost nothing in the movie seems original.

| Original Score: 1/4 | Sep 10, 2004

Even for one interested in bio-horror, RE:A is pretty generic stuff.

Full Review | Original Score: 1/4 | Sep 10, 2004

There is nothing startlingly new in Resident Evil: Apocalpyse, but it is delivered with some panache and humor.

Full Review | Original Score: 2/4 | Sep 10, 2004

Should please the target audience.

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Sep 10, 2004

There is no acting or character development here -- just shouting, shooting and calisthenics.
