(trailer review) - Resident Evil: Welcome to Racoon City

 


What I will say off the bat is, the Resident Evil movies were terrible.  They were horrendous BUT, some people liked them and had fun with them.  I was not one of those people.  I saw the first movie and it looked nothing like the first game I played and never completed on the first PlayStation (later called the PSOne).  I then went on to play a little bit of Resident Evil 2 and if I'm honest, I just couldn't get into them how I wanted because those computer games scared me a little, but I would run out of bullets and all that puzzle solving, hassle.  I did get and play Resident Evil 5 and I actually did really enjoy that one.  I was always intrigued with Resident evil and the lore was sooo interesting, but it really did stem from the first game...the mansion, the locked doors, the Lickers, so that first movie was just garbage and I believe I saw another after that, which was also garbage, but THIS trailer, well...it looks alright.

The Music is terrible in this trailer, I'll say that, but the although the special effects in places isn't great at all, I do really like this trailer.  It does come across as a little cheap and I understand why this movie might be 30 million if that, to make, but it does seem like the movie has stuck as close to the first two games as possible whilst giving it a little face-lift with some of the characters and a little bit of the story.  What I would hope more than anything, is that they have or WILL work with the Biohazard team AND get as close to the story and lore as possible because the Resident Evil story is great and spans several decades.  I do feel they could have made this trailer scary and more tension based because even The Batman trailer is more scary and tension-filled.

Directed by Johannes Roberts and starring Kaya Scodelario, Hannah John-Kamen, Robbie Amell, Tom Hopper, Avan Jogia, Donal Logue and Neal McDonough

(film review) - Captain America: The First Advenger

Steve Rogers was just any ordinary guy, but when Steve Rogers bit into a Banana, he became... actually, that's Eric. Steve Rogers bits into a banana and becomes, Steve Rogers, no changes. Poor guy. But with that said, the story of Steve Rogers goes like this. He is an average guy, if anything, very thin, mild-mannered and would do anything for his country; even join the Army. However, Steve gets rejected for the Army on multiple occassions for not passing standard requirements and then puts himself down for the super soldier enhancement program which turns him into Captain America. Meanwhile, elsewhere in the world, sinister Johann Schmidt aka Red Skull (Hugo Weaving) is trying to rule the with a device called the 'Tesseract', and Captain America is the only person who can stop him, along with his band of merry men.

Dispite what anyone says, this film is very decent. I think, if you compare with Ironman and Ironman 2, then your not understanding the film and when it was set. However one thing you will need to remember is that this film is or the time period is half a centry before modern technology, i.e Tony Stark Iron Man Era.

Have a watch of the film, you should like it as it is very watchable and when you think of the prospect of this being the beginning of the Avengers, you know that The Avengers and sequels to this film will be much better.
