![]() The characterization of entity is lite, but she is given more substance than any other character in the film. The single redeeming element I can even begin to put a finger on regarding this film is the A.I. They fit the concept of “Born Sexy Yesterday” like a glove. I don’t tend to see the female form as inherently sexual, but anyone who might will likely find these to be playboy level depictions of the actress, for no reason whatsoever except bait. However, the scenes are easily flag-worthy if you’re watching with a child or other person with whom the memory of a survey of female anatomy might linger. In both shots, Alice is in a “waking up confused” situation, taking the nudity out of sexual context. Second intro is at the end of the film, after a fade-out. The camera even pans around her giving the viewer the feeling that they’re going to eventually get a good look-but they end without showing body parts. She is shown as close to fully nude as possible. The two intro shots of “Alice”, the female lead, are non-sexual nudity. However, no mechanics of intercourse are depicted and no genitals are shown. The flashing sequence combined with audible moans from the woman, imply intercourse. Two separate “flashback” sequences each depict a naked man & woman rolling around on top of each other in a bed. The only semblances are the zombies, monsters, a virus, and names “Umbrella” and “Raccoon City”. There is no character development, and the script is baffling, (especially in comparison to OG source material-which is saying something). It’s mostly implied, and when they attempt to show people rotting, eaten, killed, sliced into pieces, etc, it is so poorly rendered it is less convincing than you’d expect, and certainly not horrifying, unless you spent money to see it.) (Silver-lining for parents: comical CG fail renders the gore moot to minimal, even by today’s standards. ![]() *The early CGI is shockingly bad, even for the early 2000’s. Namely, shortly after the opening sequence in Alice intro 1, and at the end, after the fade-out: Alice intro 2, when they set up the sequel. The bulk it’s production complexity is in the way the team managed to deliver two scenes of female nudity without showing any body parts. ![]() Resident Evil is generally considered a horror property, but this is no horror film. As for this specific property, don’t expect much…because there’s not much of anything to this film, period.
