Maybe 4 after a few beers
The film/sound/extras have been well reviewed by others.
As far as film goes it depends what you are wanting.
If you are after a shoot 'em up full of zombies being shot as the heros go from A to B, to C, to D.. then you are in for a treat.
If you are after an intellectual challenge then prepare to do a crossword at the same time.
Some decent acting (shoot zombie, kick zombie, hit zombie) by some attractive looking actresses/actors and Milla plays her part well.

Even better on Blu-Ray!
This is an excellent film (as is the first one) that I've had on standard DVD for ages but this version is simply stunning, its almost like watching the film for the first time as there seems to be so much more to see that isn't apparent on the standard DVD.

NB: I'd recommend adjusting your TV's picture to a setting with high brightness & contrast and cool colours as too much 'warmth' can ruin the HD effect.

The special features are very good too and there's a Blu-Wizard that allows you to select from a list of extras designed to be watched with the film. your choices are seamlessly integrated into the film at appropriate points, which is an excellent concept.

A fun, action-packed horror flick
'Resident Evil: Apocalypse' sees the outbreak of the deadly T-virus spread onto the streets of Racoon City, infecting it's residents and turning them into flesh-eating zombies. If that's not enough there are also zombie dogs, creatures with razor-sharp tongues and the Umbrella Corporation's deadliest weapon, Nemesis, who's primary objective is to eliminate all the members of the rescue team S.T.A.R.S. Milla Jovovich returns as Alice, who alongside Jill Valentine and Carlos Olivera takes the Umbrella Corporation head-on whilst also trying to save as many of the city's survivors as possible.

This is easily the best in the Resident Evil trilogy of movies - especially for the first hour. If you've ever played the game of Resident Evil 3: Nemesis that came out a few years ago, you'll see that this game is pretty much spot-on to the locations, characters and action of the game, just with the addition of Alice from the previous movie. Although it isn't very beleiveable or realistic and doesn't provide the scares that you'd get from other zombie films like George A Romero's Dead movies, this is an extremely enjoyable film with enough cheesy acting to keep you entertained throughout and the action is literally non-stop and the special effects are brilliant.

I can't think of many bad points about this movie and watching it on the Blu Ray format is simply breathtaking. Highly recommended for anyone after an exciting, action-packed no-brainer.
