Yup, you summed up what I was saying correctly.
I didn't think I would like RE2 being that the first was not a fav of mine but I did like it. The Nemesis looked kinda kooky in those clodhopper boots and packing heat like it did but I still liked the flick. I just wish they could find time in one of the sure to follow RE's to put in other zombified creatures and mutants that umbrella was working on.
I still haven't watched my copy of open water yet, I think it will be one of those movies that I will have to be in the mood for, in order to put it in that night.
