Resident Evil Apocalypse is not a bad follow up to the action packed original. The story picks up right where the first movie left off but also introduces new characters Jill Valentine and Carlos Olivera. The zombie outbreak is now overtaking Raccoon City and the government along with the Umbrella Corporation is detaining the citizens while trying to cover up the truth. My favorite part of this movie is the realistic depiction of all-out war with the undead as the police and army try to hold off an ever growing horde of zombies lumbering toward the city. This film has great special effects, action-packed battle scenes and halfway decent acting; all of which make up for a predictable plot line and an overall lack of gore. If you enjoyed the first Resident Evil I recommend checking out the second installment as well. I'm sure you'll find it pretty entertaining.

Not a Bad Sequel
A Really Fun Action-Packed Sci-fi Sequel
Resident Evil: Apocalypse is a kick-ass action flick but when i first watched it on video way back in early 2000's i didn't like it. Now in 2022 I've watched it again & think it's Awesome!!!
Apocalypse isn't as good as the first film but it's still a damn good sequel & companion piece to that film.
The Apocalyptic scale of Raccoon City promised at the end of the first film is on full display here. The city is in a panic & the corrupted Umbrella company is locking everything down & locking everyone in. The virus has spread from the reopening of The Hive & our hero Alice (Milla Jovivich) is on the hunt. Jovovich is Awesome again in her "Ripley" type of role & gets to team up with other survivors including some left-behind S. T. A. R. S soldiers & what we get is a group of survivors trying to make their way to safety & rescue a young girl lost in the chaos.
The action scenes are well done with cool kick-ass stunts & slick feel to it all. The atmosphere is done well with a blueish look to everything & with a mist & rain it has a nice Horror film feel & look. There's plenty of Zombie action & the cool looking Nemesis creature that is like a big mutant Terminator & looks Awesome.
Mike Epps (Next Friday) is pretty fun as one of the group & has fun in his role.
Apocalypse is just a damn good fun action-packed ride, a fun late-night movie ride.
