Anecdotes:

The word Biohazard appears many times in the movie. This is a reference to the Japanese versions of the games. In Japan the series of games is called Biohazard.

Goofs:

Factual errors: Several errors were made regarding nuclear power. First, no nuclear weapon detonation could ever be mistaken for an accident at a power station - power reactors cannot create nuclear explosions like weapons. Second, "critical" describes a reactor at normal, steady state operation, it does not mean an accident is occurring or imminent. Finally, the "accident" is described in the movie as the worst accident since Chernobyl. According to the UN, Chernobyl has only caused 56 deaths to date and the final death toll for the accident will be around 4,000. The destruction of a city the size of Raccoon City and the death of all its inhabitants would be far worse than the Chernobyl incident.

Alice: My name is Alice. I worked for the Umbrella Corporation, the largest and most powerful commercial entity in the world. I was head of security at a secret high-tech facility, The Hive, a giant underground laboratory developing experimental viral weaponry. But there was an incident. The virus escaped and everybody died. Trouble was... they didn't stay dead.

The 3 E's... Exciting, Entertaining, and Energetic

This movie is what might happen if you take a typical zombie flick and give it a plot, lot's of action, and a large city with PLENTY of extras to show mobs of zombies. It has humor. It has suspense. And it has a plot that unfolds; even if you've played the games, it's got plenty of changes to keep you guessing. With, I might add, several of the game characters (Jill, Carlos, and the little girl). I enjoyed this movie better than any since Lord of the Rings, Return of the King. Not that you could compare the two. It's just that there haven't been too many good movies since then.

Milla Jojovich is really cool and she's a talented actress. Her character really rocks when her hidden secrets come out. Mike Epps kept me rolling with laughter. He's always funny, and it was quite nice and different to see Oded Fehr in this role as Carlos. Cool. As for Sienna Guillory as Jill Valentine... she was a PERFECT match. This movie was very fun and I'd love to see it again and again and again....

I voted 9/10. I thought they out-did themselves on this one and i thought the first one was good....
