The clone opening is the funniest piece of shit then they ruin it ... oh hey Paul WS is back. Still mad over the shower scene, everything about it. I don’t know whats happening in this series anymore and I was barely scraping by two movies ago.

Takes on a bunch of new elements from the latest video game--I have no complaints about that. Has good action and the 3-D was a plus, but suffers a bit from pacing issues where the plot seems to stop and take a stark turn. Jovovich is still hot and I'm not sick of Res E zombies yet, so I say to Anderson, keep 'em coming.

Resident Evil Marathon, Hour 7.1: W.S. skulks sheepishly up to the Wachowskis: "Hey, um, can I be your friend?" They scowl under their pink hair and go hang out with Netflix. Jilted and ashamed, Paul forces Shawn Roberts to play Agent Smith, providing superficial companionship. "I'll do a slow-motion Tokyo scene in the rain," he mutters under his breath. "I'll add umbrellas. Get it, Wachowskis? I can do subtext, too!" He retreats into an ennui of explosions and angry white boy music.

Paul W.S. Anderson vs. the Laws of Physics, bout IV. Once again, the former wins, because the latter was awarded a lucrative payday to take a fall in the 2nd round. Just because an extra Van Damme made Double Impact the greatest action movie in film history doesn't mean fifty Jovoviches can save a franchise that was chewed up and shat out by a pack of zombie dogs the instant Michelle Rodriguez died.

Ok they are all starting to melt into one movie in my memory banks now but I think this was actually a step in the right direction as they nerfed Alice to make her more vulnerable again which allows things to return to a more horror vibe than the pure action of the previous effort. Chris Redfield shows up and Miller's performance is suitably cheesy.

Stupid, but at least has a modicum of entertainment buried beneath the stupidity and useless pandering to the 3D craze. The whole thing is so nonsensical and badly staged that it doesn't just rewrite the rules of physics and logic, it rewrites it using crayon and Eastern European finger paint, the kind that causes brain damage and should be kept out of reach of children. Which seems to be the only target audience for this franchise.

Holy hell what hahahahaha! The opening where they dismiss the previous film’s sequel hook with prejudice is hilarious, as is the Matrix-as-directed-by-chimpanzees finale fight. This is probably one of the stupidest movies I’ve seen, give or take xXx The Return of Xander Cage. In one scene Milla is just about to take a shower before getting interrupted at the last second and I was finna chuck my TV out the window

Okay, for info I have only watched the first movie before so my opinion might be a bit off the track. It's generally a good action-packed movie that's quite enjoying to watch. Milla is hot, as she normally is (or I'm just very fond of her), and there's plenty of gunfights. However, there are way too many scenes which were made entirely for 3D and were quite a disappointment for me. Another problem is the ending which is just silly... Final judgement: a solid zombie apocalypse movie.

Another slick addition to the series that is still high on cheese but has what the fans wants and delivers with impressive results.

Resident Evil: Afterlife is the best film of the Resident Evil series so far. It took most of the problems that the previous films had and fixed them. The story still needs work, and the acting isn't going to blow anyone away, but it's an entertaining action film that serves as a good way to continue the film series. It is a fun film, like the previous installments, but Afterlife just does everything better.

Better than expected, Anderson really pushed the limits on all fronts to make this one, and it works. A nice follow up from the decent third film of the series. Its pretty much the first film with a lot more action. A heck of a lot more!

Terrible... the final fight scenes are not inspired by but copied directly from Matrix...

I find it hard to rate this badly. It isn't a very good film in any sense, but I still struggled to hate it like I should have. The acting is sub par, with a few characters bordering on terrible, the plot silly, the screenplay is far too jumpy, the slow motion horribly annoying...yet, I still enjoyed it. It has some nice vistas to take in, I like Jovovich...I don't know. I'm vastly overrating it here, I'm aware, but I did enjoy watching it. I think I have a strange zombie fetish...

There's something here about a franchise taking on the characteristics of zombies themselves, a mindless shambling automaton that doesn't quit because there's a chance Milla's husband will show you her boobs.

These movies are kind of a guilty pleasure of mine. I know they're awful but I will continue to watch them. If you are going to see this movie I would recommend seeing it in 3D.

Apparently Jovovich and Anderson had a toddler when this film was being made. I suspect she might have written it. It's got a certain weird child logic, as characters and creatures periodically pull magical powers right out of their ass, and the plans require a weird combination of clairvoyance and outright stupidity.

Way too many shots ripped straight from the Matrix. It's been 11 years since that film, surely there's something new or creative that can be added to the bullet-time visuals other than "Now with extra zombies!" Also, when you've got Wentworth Miller in the cast and the goal is to break out of prison, it's simply required that the prison break plan be brilliantly elaborate. "We'll swim through some water and then crawl down a hole" does not qualify as a brilliantly elaborate plan!

Another good performance by Milla Jovovich. This time I was (as in part 2) a little displeased by the fact that there were different kinds of (smart) zombies. It wasn't explained where these guys came from and/or why they were created.. big flaw. I was expecting the worst resident evil cause of the cast, but Wentworth Miller's (aka Scofield) performance was actually pretty good, same goes for Ali Larter. Bring on the next Resident Evil movie!!!

The most uncompromised in the franchise, with CGI of beautiful artificial action set-pieces. Anderson's procedure remains the same: a voiceover to place things in their place and then a movement-driven plot. The army of Millas ends with her losing her powers to the President (guy with sunglasses). She finds new allies, but has to kill a giant executioner in a raining room and stop the President. It ends frontally begging for a sequel, with survivors in the ship about to get attacked by Umbrella.

Yes, a couple of Anderson's choices make it obvious he loved the Matrix, but who cares when he puts his own (multiple) spins on it? He may be looked down on by many, but his work here is impressive. Not only does he maintain an always exciting pace (the first 20 minutes would be any other action flick's last 20), but there are several stunningly beautiful visuals here, whether they are CGI or not. As a writer he also always follows up on previous threads & treats this as the ongoing story it is.

What was left of a premise at the end of Extinction was lost within the first 5 minutes. Please let this series die.

They just keep churning these out. This is like the Saw franchise of zombie movies. Add in a character that is essentially a ripoff of Keanu Reeves' character in the Matrix and you have this steaming pile. Should be called Resident Evil: Please never make another movie again.

Some entertainment value, but most of it is just ridiculously overdone without any substance. There's about 15 minutes of actual plot progression 20 minutes of slow motion fights and the rest is just nonsense.

Under Quarantine Film Reviews #36: This is a big-budget B movie without any heart or charm of what makes a good B movie. Idiotic characters making idiotic decisions really sunk this ship. Just two more left, I can get through it.
