To tell you the truth, I liked better RE than FF when having in mind what you were expecting about them.

FF Spirits within was an outstanding movie talking about special effects and all the work they did on that part. But it greatly disapointed me to see that it had very little of Final Fantasy itself. Very vague details, and something really out of place when talking about what Final Fantasy really is.

Now, Resident Evil, WAS RESIDENT EVIL. It just didn't have bases on the game, but it followed a lot of elements from it. (talking about all RE's in general)

As in most of cases, it's storyline probably was not as good as it was in the game (but having in mind that IT IS A MOVIE) they have to make the events kinda quick so everything gets explained. (but take in mind LOTR, everything happens ridicously fast when comparing it to the book, but if they didn't do so, the movie would probably be terribly boring)

I highly recommend you rent it. But I don't guarantee you'll like it, since I don't know how your tastes are... but I really liked this freaking movie.
