Movie description:
The lovely Milla Jovovitch is back with a vengeance as amnesiac,
genetically-altered zombie ass-kicker, Alice, in this sequel to
the 2002 hit film, which is based on the video game. This time
around the sinister Umbrella Corporation sends a team of
investigators into their destroyed underground lab (the
ground-zero of carnage in the previous film) and unwittingly
unleash the still-staggering zombies and monsters out into the
population of Raccoon City. Soon Umbrella has evacuated all of
their own key employees and has shut everyone else inside to be
devoured. A mastermind chemist's daughter gets left behind in the
confusion, and she is the one ticket out for Alice and a handful
of dwindling survivors, including the equally hot, skimpily
dressed, and almost-as-tough lady cop, Jill Valentine (Sienna
Guillory). There's some nifty motorcycle riding, plenty of bullets
and splattering blood, and even a new monster--the hulking,
heavily-armored, seriously ugly Nemesis. Comic actor Mike Epps is
great as a pimped-out hustler who handles the whole
dead-coming-back-to-life thing with cool nonchalance. In some
ways, this nonstop creep show is even an improvement over the
original, with a pervasive mood of nihilistic corporate
dehumanization adding extra concern about the future of
civilization to the mix of shooting, dying, punching, and
munching.
