As is the current trend with all red hot video game franchises, Resident Evil has spawned a number of Hollywood films bearing its name. And as is the trend with those films, all of the characters were poorly casted (not to mention poorly portrayed) by some soulless, greedy suit who has never even played the games.

Don’t get me wrong, Milla Jovovich possesses decent acting chops and her looks were pretty much the only reason to keep watching after the elevator scene, but why break what doesn’t need to be fixed? That would be like giving Lara Croft a cybernetic arm and a talking chimp sidekick voiced by Robin Williams.

This is something you won’t want to miss, you may be surprised at what I have in store.
