One of the only survivors of a man-made plague joins forces with a team of private warriors in a bid to save whats left of the Earth in this sequel to Resident Evil, the big-screen adaptation of the popular video game. Picking up where the first film left off, Resident Evil: Apocalypse finds Alice (Milla Jovovich) still battling the living dead who are overtaking Raccoon City. She was immune to the contagion by treatments she unwittingly received from the nefarious and all-powerful Umbrella Corporation. Alice encounters Jill Valentine (Sienna Guillory), a former member of Umbrellas internal defense team who shares Alices immunity to the zombie virus. Forming an uneasy alliance with Jills one-time leader Carlos Oliveira (Oded Fehr) and his cohorts, this tiny band of survivors seeks out Dr. Charles Ashford (Jared Harris), Umbrellas top scientist and one of the only men with the know-how to find a solution to the zombie menace; however, they discover Ashfords cooperation comes with a price -- the scientists daughter Angie (Sophie Vavasseur) is missing, and hell help Alice and her partners only if Angie is returned to him safe and sound. Resident Evil: Apocalypse was the first solo directorial credit for Alexander Witt, who previously distinguished himself as a cinematographer and second-unit director. ~ Mark Deming, All Movie Guide
