watching movies one cup at a time

Welcome to Ice Cubes In My Coffee :: The Caffeinated Movie Guide. I love movies and I have strong opinions about all of them. When they are great, they can change your life. And when they suck, you can at least have fun ripping them to shreds. I have seen a million movies and I have a bunch of movie facts and trivia stored up in my head - it's time to share. I'm going to be filling this movie guide with reviews on an ongoing basis, building up a large library of reviews so YOU, the movie-watching public, will know what movies are essential viewing and what movies you must avoid at all costs (hint: anything with the words "Starring Dane Cook"). I will also be posting some interesting articles and lists along the way as well. So grab a cup of joe and settle in for some movie talk!

Resident Evil: Extinction

Starring: Milla Jovovich
Director: Russell Mulcahy
Year of Release: 2007
Rated 4 cups

Well, it is what it is - a b-grade zombie flick loosely based on a video game. I’m not a big fan of any of these movies. They are pretty weak in general. I like the idea of an out-of-control company like the Umbrella Corporation, but we don’t get much insight into them. This film takes place in a future where the whole world has pretty much been taken over by the “T Virus” which kills everything and then reanimates it zombie-style. Milla Jovovich is back as the genetically-enhanced Alice, ready to kick some a** as usual. And really that’s the most fun part - watching Milla do her thing. She pretty much only acts in movies where she can whup on people nowadays so she’s gotten really good at it. High kicks, flipping all over, knives, guns, what’s not to like? The rest of the cast and the story is pretty forgettable. Even as an end-of-the-world scenario it’s so-so. Fun if you want something mindless.
