Yeah, I have a soft spot for them. The first one I would say is actually pretty decent just judged as a film. The second's worst, but I still enjoyed it.

Granted, I also have a soft spot for the Paul W.S Anderson RE films. They are B-movie trash, even the first two (which always felt like they had the highest budget out of the lot), kind of corny, cheesy, and ridiculous...but at least they have fun with the material. And they made Alice a believable kick-ass female heroine without demeaning the men, or her belittling them. I don't think that would've been the case if they were made in today's Hollywood.

Also to this day they still have the best live-action castings of Jill and Claire.
