One of the funniest movies I have ever seen. The movie started out pretty epic, but soon turned into a comedy. They ruined my second favourite character (Chris) by making him a dumb douche bag.

So, what's good about this film? Two things: The cinematography was fantastic and the 3D was great.… Expand

When you think of Resident evil, you think of Zombies and Alice kicking some Zombie ass.....that is of course until you see Resident Evil Afterlife!

All the bad acting of the first 3 without any of the awesome action. All of the fight scenes (there aren't many) are a super crappy version of the matrix slow motion dodging. I won't give away the plot for those of you who are going to see it but it's pretty nonexistent anyway.… Expand

cÂ´mon guys from "hollycrap" this movie is horrible! we all pay now we have to pay the "3D tax" to see a movie with no 3D???!!! (the funny part is that you have to use glasses otherwise....)
This is happening in lots of 3DcÂ´mon guys from "hollycrap" this movie is horrible! we all pay now we have to pay the "3D tax" to see a movie with no 3D???!!! (the funny part is that you have to use glasses otherwise....)
This is happening in lots of 3D movies, no 3D whatsoever, this is call cheating people and get rich with it.
The movie itself...who cares!!!They donÂ´t care when a girl that looks like a rotten egg appears next day looking glamorous and shine on the back of an airplane (they went to a professional hairdresser before taking off, brilliant stuff...)They donÂ´t care to show a city that is certainly burning for years (the buildings are made of a special compound of gasoline and concrete, well imagined....)they dont care to show characters that have no inner life or any sort of relation with the others around (sometimes i didn't know who ware the zombies...)
Ok i know its an action movie with brainless potential before i enter cinema but this is too much!! Ok we like to be fooled but please try to fool us well! How many people worked on this project?They donÂ´t have any one that watches the movie before it gets out? I want my "3D Tax" money back, and by the way, the normal ticket money back also....… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Bad acting, bad action, bad script and bad pacing. There you have the recipe that Paul W.S. Anderson put together to create his latest masterpiece, Resident Evil: Afterlife.

The film picks up where the last one ended, with Alice having a whole bunch of clones. Now I'll get in to a little spoiler bit here, consider this a warning. All the clones die in the first action scene.

This film is 90 minutes long, out of that the action probably takes 25 minutes at tops, and that's including slow-motion and bad one-liners in the middle of them. Speaking of slow-motion, 75% of the action sequences are entirely in slow-motion and it gets old really quick.

The story goes nowhere and the dialogue feels deader than the dialogue in the original 1996 Resident Evil game. The middle 55 minutes of this film is constant talking about nothing of interest with character void of any personality. We even get introduced to Chris Redfield, a classic character from the game, who in the film does absolutely nothing from the moment he steps on screen until the credits roll.

The fact that the franchise has made it to its fourth instalment with critics panning every entry thus far is amazingly mind boggling and I guarantee we'll see a fifth one in a few years. If this and the previous ones are any indication, the next one will be even worse.

I'd give this a lower score if it wasn't for the fact that there is but one good action scene, though waiting about 60 minutes for it to happen wasn't fun and it was over in 3 minutes.

Don't pay to see this film, it's not worth it. If you want to spend 90 minutes of your life watching monsters and clunky dialogue, then go watch someone playing through the original game, it takes about as long and is actually entertaining. Hell, you could even watch the DOOM film, that one was much better than this.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Anyone who has watched the first chapters in this story knows that it has little to do with the games other than having a few of the characters from the games in it. (by name only basically). But this latest entry into the movie franchise actually has little to do with the previous ones. After seeing a dozen or so "Alice's" slice and dice their way into Weskers underground lair and then seeing them killed off one by one we see the "Real" Alice suddenly appear with a gun to Weskers head, only to have Wesker take away her powers with a quick syringe to the neck. To which Alice says "Thank You " to Wesker. A chopper crash later and we don't know if wesker is alive or dead but Alice survives (of course).

Alice commandeers a plane and goes to Alaska to meet up with the survivors from the last movie, but all she finds is an Amnesiac Claire. Together they fly into the city and meet up with another bunch of generic survivors and lo and behold we finally meet Chris Redfield! But Claire doesn't know him because remember she has amnesia.

To make a long story longer they hatch a plan to get to a big tanker that claims to be virus free but when they get there no one is there, they are all below deck in holding tanks waiting to be experimented on. And guess who shows up? That's right! Wesker! Wesker is now an Uber Bad ass and commences to beat the snot out of Chris and Claire until Alice (who was being held hostage by infected dogs that can open their mouths really wide,) Blows the top of weskers head off with a shotgun that shoots Quarters. (I'm not kidding). Claire and Chris then shoot about a million rounds into Weskers body. They release all of the captives and go to the chopper bay and see one chopper missing. It turns out that Wesker!?! has taken a chopper and escaped. And he doesn't have a scratch on him. Alice yells to them to come up on deck and they watch as Weskers chopper explodes in a mini Nuclear explosion because Alice planted a bomb on just the right chopper that Wesker was going to steal.

As the credits roll we see a bunch of Umbrella stormtroopers in more choppers being given orders by a "Female" Wesker wearing some sort of glowing beetle on her chest.

The movie mercifully fades to black and yet another Resident Evil Movie is continued until next time.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. If you are a longtime resident evil fan, sure, watch this. Otherwise, I would feel horrible if I suggested that anyone watch this. You do not see zombies until about 30 minutes into movie... if you ask me, zombies is THE major part of the series. If you think zombies are too unrealistic to watch, stay away from this. At BEST, this is a Matrix with zombies (the two do not mix well). Worst part is, the end leaves you at a cliffhanger, leading into yet ANOTHER Resident Evil movie (they should have stopped after the second in my opinion). All in all, 2/10 at best and that is being generous. Don't watch this unless you are (like me) a die hard Resident Evil fan and MUST see anything that has to do with it.… Expand

Loved the previous RE movies, for the most part. This one puts them all to shame. Sure, we know what to expect by now. Yet this one just sucked. Badly. Lame plot. Lame special effects.

Badly. Lame plot. Lame special effects. None of the hot chicks in skimpy dresses shooting bad guys stuff that made at the least the first one soooooo (sic!) worth watching. So this one was really disappointing in most every single way. Seems they just ran out of money to hire decent graphic designers, make up artists, or script writers. Neither some guy in mask yelling and growling, a star actress looking all tired and worn out, or plot that is plain retarded is going to impress anyone these days. Hope they try better next time, and just get back to basics: good looking actors, decent plot, decent special effects, and certainly a better director.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Does Milla Jovovich still write songs? Arguably, the Ukranian-born Jovovich is the Harper Lee of supermodels-cum-songwriters. Nobody told her that supermodels were supposed to be dumb; they don't release albums as startlingly accomplished as "The Divine Comedy". Filmmaker Richard Linklater must have sensed that music was Jovovich's true calling when he cast her as a folksinger in "Dazed and Confused", where the composer of the Kate Bush-inspired "Gentleman Who Fell"(the former Vogue cover girl captures Bush's flair for the theatrical with a playful deftness) can be glimpsed strumming a blue guitar in the company of stoners. Released in 1994, "The Divine Comedy" holds up, made all the more astonishing since Jovovich was only nineteen at the time. In a sense, she invented Fiona Apple. As an actress, she also played everybody's favorite fifteenth-century heretic in Luc Besson's "The Messenger: The Story of Joan of Arc", in which her performance as The Maid of Orleans fell somewhere between Ingrid Bergman and Jane Wiedlin. To put it tactfully, Jovovich could have used more seasoning, but she wasn't awful on the scale of Sofia Coppola in Francis Ford Coppola's "The Godfather III"; she deserved a second chance at a project that called for more than a pretty face and tight physique. But Hollywood can be unforgiving to actresses who bomb in their first starring role(witness Brittany Murphy's descent after Nick Hurran's "Little Black Book"), so once again, she's "Alice in Video Gameland", playing a woman with a pretty face and tight physique in "Resident Evil: Afterlife", her fourth(fifth, if you count Kurt Wimmer's "Ultraviolet") go-around as deadly eye-candy, with the added plus of being deadly eye-candy in 3D. (Admittedly, the film works on the level of spectacle: the 3D is first-rate.) Jovovich, however, is too smart for her prevailing demographic group. (The music video for "Gentleman Who Fell" references avant-garde filmmaker Maya Deren's "Meshes in the Afternoon", for Pete's sake.) Unfortunately, whereas Apple was romantically involved with Paul Thomas Anderson, the once-promising singer-songwriter ended up with the other Paul Anderson. Jovovich's pairing with her filmmaker/husband on the "Resident Evil" series recalls Geena Davis' work with ex-hubby Renny Harlin("Cutthroat Island", "The Long Kiss Goodnight") in that the action-oriented films ruined Davis' cachet as an adept dramatic actress. "To Kill a Dogwalker", indeed. With a break or two, maybe Jovovich could've had Famke Janssen's career. As she proved in David Twohy's "A Perfect Getaway"(a vastly underrated movie about duplicitous honeymooners on holiday in Hawaii), the beautiful Versace girl does indeed have an acting range than extends beyond steely resolve, in which she more than held her own with Steve Zahn, showing at long last, the opportunity to do more than shoot guns in skin-tight outfits.… Expand

Featuring weak CGI and carelessly directed by Paul W. S. Anderson, 'Resident Evil: Afterlife' also relies on dull characters and on a repetitive storyline.

A pretty stale story told in ridiculous fashion. Paul W.S. Anderson ultimately tries and fails to prove, once again, that intelligence in filmmaking is overrated.
