Resident Evil: Ex-Stink!-tion

Rating: ★☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆

 

I shall start by first noting that, I dreaded writing this review. I knew I needed to warn the world of the horror that was the movie, but simply couldn’t bring myself to write about it. Resident Evil: Extinction, the 3rd, and rumored to be final movie of the RE trilogy, was a nightmare.

 

Since there was a lot more wrong than good, I shall start with the negative:

 

  1. Alice is the “savior” of what is left of the world. Why did I chose savior, she has this very annoying glow to her face. I’m not trying to say she looked great or bad, I mean the directors literally put this glow on her face that made her look immaculate. This look was annoying throughout the movie.
  2. Zombie dogs were once again attacking the woman, but once we’ve seen it done once- we’ve seen it done a million times.
  3. Alice’s blood, again the key to our saving grace, has created angrier zombies. I was almost reminded of Bub from Day of the Dead, except he was cute and friendly. These zombies just carried a new strain of the T-Virus and…
  4. …turned freaking Dr. Isaacs into some mutant with a GOD complex.
  5. Claire is an interesting character. She’s a great shoot and at the same time sucks arse.
  6. There were some cheesy dialogue
  7. There were useless scenes, e.g., When Alice stops at the gas station and fights the zombie dogs after being attacked by some losers. How did push the story line forward? What was it’s purpose?
  8. Also, ASHANTI? She’s mad ass! I am sorry for the hate. I am so tired of actresses, Ashanti and Megan Good,tend to fall into this category– they’re these head rolling, lip puckering, getting by on their “ass” type of actresses and it drives me nuts that people are casted for these movies. She was not a good choice for Nurse Betty, and what makes it worse is that she didn’t even do that much nursing in the first place. The only guy she took care of, Mike Epps, was the man she’s been fucking. Not just that, she was too busy flirting with him to notice the big ass bite he had on his chest.
  9. Finally, *SPOILER ALERT* since I have to go to bed and there are way too many things that made me unhappy about the film to continue, CLONES?!! WTH? Not only is Alice now going after Wesker (who sort of sucked too), how? By using the hundreds of clones created by the Umbrella Corp. BLAH I tell you, blah!

Now on to the positive:

 

  1. There was a scene where Alice uses her “powers” to kill all the zombie infested crows. That scene, which lit up the sky of death, was AMAZING. I do believe it was the only scene I liked. Thank you.
