When Alice is attacked by a group of militarized commandos, she meets Rain.
Neither Alice nor the commandos know about the outbreak, and believe the Red Queen went haywire.
Third time’s the charm?
Rodriguez plays Rain with a lot of grit, muscling through nasty situations.
During fight scenes, Rain bites back her cries and pushes forward rather than screaming.
A classic tough girl, Rain isnt just physically strong, but emotionally resilient, too.
Rain is a refreshing break from this mold.
Her devotion to the other characters makesRain a dynamic character, not her ability to shoot a gun.
When even battle-hardened Rain looks horrified, audiences know the situation is rough.
There is a real urgency toResident Evil, ensuring the film never gets slow or dull.
Critically panned and divided among fans,Resident Evilhas not seen the love it deserves.
Regardless of their familiarity with the franchise, any audience member can agree: Rain is the best character.
