What the Critics say | ||
Cape Argus / The Star Zane Henry Fun for fans of the genre, but nothing groundbreaking. | 10 | |
Die Burger Jacques Liebenberg Middelmatige vermaak. | 5 | |
Cape Times Kevin Crust Movie for zombie fans. | 5 | |
iAfrica.com Nils van der Linden Still can't quite match the no-nonsense excitement and breathless pace of the unexpectedly accomplished original film | 8 | |

The Citizen Annette Bayne Resident Evil fans may enjoy this latest instalment from a gamers' point of view but there are times when a joystick console would have saved it from becoming dull. | 12 | |
24.com Ivan Sadler There can't possibly be an audience for something this dull and predictable, can there? | 1 | |
BBC Paul Arendt The Resident Evil console games are standard setters in the survival horror genre, so it's a pity (though not exactly a shock) that the resulting movies are so stale. | 5 | |
eye Weekly Adam Nayman The multiplicity of Jovovichs makes for the film’s one memorable image. The rest is all chunky CGI gore, hilariously solemn exposition, and limp genre references. | 5 | |
ScreenIt With no one to care about, and the action and bloodletting becoming repetitive, this quickly becomes a bore, causing one to wish it would suffer the same fate as many a zombie within it, and thus hopefully put an end to this lackluster franchise. | 6 | |
