Genre: ActionRunning Time: 97 min
Plot: Loosely based on Resident Evil 5 for the gamers out there... If you haven't played the game it is the continuation of the story of Resident Evil: Extinction. Alice is her usual self by kicking everything's ass if it gets in her way, as she fights the Umbrella Corporation who is responsible for the zombie epidemic.
Alice meets up with old and new friends as they try and make their way to a sanctuary (that is zombie free) from a high-security prison in California. Most people die along the way just like all the other Resident Evil movies with a few upgraded enemies that are more difficult to kill.
Review: I am a huge fan of the Resident Evil series and find them good examples of "brainless" entertainment... Besides the first movie, the remaining of the saga is relatively the same movie with a few different enemies and outrageous upgrades to Alice. This episode, Alice starts off like a scene from The Matrix where she is taken over by Mr. Smith and f's some Umbrella workers up in Tokyo. She is successful at killing everyone except the Neo of the Corporation who ends up taking away all of her ridiculous powers.... thank you!
The rest of the movie takes place in a prison where the survivors try and make a plan to get to the ship in the ocean. I know if I wanted to make a movie like this work I would have to cast Michael Scofield from Prison Break who knows everything about the prison.... check!
The movie is full of fun action, horrible stereotypes, a juggernaut zombie, and two very beautiful women that we all love. Definitely a good movie to watch only if you have seen the others in the series and you want to sit and veg out for about 90 minutes.
Quote you might say after watching this: "I love how Resident Evil became the love child of The Matrix and Prison Break.... and the baby was born a zombie."
