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.

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.

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.

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 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!!!

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!

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.

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...

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.

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.

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.

Eventually the fuel would run out. My mild appreciation for the series has died in the 4th chapter. Not even solid 3D work will save it as the film borrows heavily from 'The Matrix' and 'The Thing,' and seems to regurgitate and combine the look and feel of Parts I and II of its own franchise. 'Afterlife' isn't necessarily worse than the other movies, I just have no interest left and was bored most of the time. When characters die again and again and again, what is the point in continuing?

It had almost no story, and when you got to the end and the story started to make sense it didn't really matter. But the 3D was REAL 3D, and was a reminder why it was so effective in Avatar. Lots of fun action scenes shot with the same cameras as Avatar made this movie kinda of enjoyable despite a lackluster plot.

I should've switched of the TV after I a saw "produced by Bernd Eichinger" in the beginning. Another prequel without a storyline, without good fighting scenes and without good actors. The worst thing: Afterlife got nothing to do with the awesome game, except some character names and the Umbrella Corp. sign. It's a pity because this awesome game deserves something better.

Better than part 3, but that's like saying one pile of shit stinks less than the other. Story continues to degrade everything that made RE lovable, going so far as to make Wesker a pointless minion, Chris and Claire's reunion the most awkward and robotic thing I've ever seen, even though it takes great strides in bringing the terrible movies closer to the games stylistically (the Majini zombies looked great). The fight scenes are much improved, but this draaaaagggggsss for such a short movie.

The RE franchise has spiraled downwards since Paul W.S. Anderson directed the first rather solid film from 2002. Now he is back, and does he take the quadrilogy back up again? The answer is no. This is the worst of the four films! Yeah it has some great action scenes for the 3D audience, but that is it. The story, which were there in the first film, is simply non existing and this movie follow the trend of action films where you have a couple of decent scenes but the layers in between are crap!

One of the worst movies of the decade. Being cheesy is one thing (like using samurai swords and throwing stars against armed guards) but it reaches a whole new level of idiocy by introducing terrible characters (the homages to RE5 actually don't help at all) and by far the worst story of the series. Worst of all, to zombie film enthusiasts, is that the director couldn't make up his mind about fast or slow zombies. The zombies become ridiculously slow when convenient, and fast all other times.

Barely possesses a plot, the acting - stark, CGI - terrible, leaving the 3D to hold the audiences interest long enough for the film to end, it did not. The 3D did have it's moments despite plagiarizing them from several other films, most noticeable is the art direction replicated from the Matrix. Miller is cast so laughably he may as well have prison blueprints tattooed on his back. Also, there is a character called K-mart. I suppose in a few years the next Bond girl will just be called pepsi.

Saw this in 3-D D-Box (with moving chairs and rumble seats, etc)... this movie felt like a tech demo of what movies could become. Great integration of the D-Box tech, and shot with D-Box in mind. Unfortunately, this is more of the same, and the action scenes just are grueling. Also, knockoff pyramidhead out of nowhere. Still better than part 2, but not as good as the legit-good part 1 or the bleak but interesting part 3.

Lots of slow mo action scenes, excessive cgi, and Milla Jovovich's tight ass. Don't expect any oscar winning performances here but it's what you expect from a video game adaptation. Anderson has a good eye for interesting scenes but little else. Made purely for technicians to stroke off on 3d capabilities. The villain(s) are comically bad as are the paper thin character archetypes in this.

Slightly more impressive camera work when compared with the rest however the slow-mo is used to such excess that it quickly loses any impact. The story is beyond retarded but it at least it admits that Alice becoming some kind of wargod was even stupidier so it attempts to remove that aspect of her character. Personally I think they should've never gone there in the first place. If you like the Resident Evil movies then you're a tool (so you'll probably like this).

I didn't think the first half of the movie was bad. I enjoyed the idea of survivors being trapped in a prison where we almost get a glimps of survival. Then the entire last act was just a montage of rip-off's form various Resident Evil games. It is probably my favourite of the Resident Evil movie franchise - which isn't really saying much considering the four movies are an insult to gamers (excluding the Max Payne movie).

Every fight scene features things being thrown in slow motion, bullets whizzing past in slow motion, shrapnel flying in slow motion, and the lead character Alice jumping in slow motion. She's like Sportacus on a hot-plate. I'm all for clever technology but when it gets in the way of telling a story, or when entire scenes are added simply to exploit a technique (like the gratuitous 'roller-coaster' scenes in IMAX films like Robots and The Polar Express) it just winds me up.

It's amazing, really, that this series could get to four installments as nothing in this one feels new. The special effects are just retreads of those in earlier, better movies; the villain looks like he comes right out of The Matrix; the actors look to be going through the paces, though the script doesn't give them any dimensions or even emotion, really. A collection of dull actions scenes stitched unharmoniously together. I would like the serial-style cliffhanger except it means another movie.

Definitely the slowest paced of all the movies. Once again, Alice comes across a group of survivors and they band together if the hope of finding a safe haven. The side characters are bland, and really just serve the purpose of giving us something to look at as they're slaughtered. Lots of the filming looks like it was meant for 3D and was way overdone. However, a couple action sequences were done well. Overall, nothing really more than to just past the time, but better than Extinction.

While the previous entry in the Resident Evil series took on a more cinematic and even serious tone, Afterlife is hopelessly cheesy and violently ridiculous. It's so over-the-top that it puts the first two movies to shame, and I think the preposterous corniness of it all actually helps it, providing laughs when silly and dumb characters suffer horrible deaths due to hesitation or betrayal, and bludgeoning the viewer with impossible action. So... not so much out of tune with classic zombie films.

Afterlife took inspiration from the wrong games in the franchise. The story is dependent on event from the games that only the player would be aware of. Paul W.S. Anderson's visual style is definitely improved by the need to slow down the edits to accommodate 3D.

If you want to take your bad movie franchise and make it worse without any enjoyable features, call Paul W S Anderson.

Either the series is getting better or I'm becoming acclimatised to them - while this does nothing to stand out of the pack (or horde) of zombie films, it's fast paced, light on its feet and entertaining enough to be satisfying - while Anderson indulges in too much slow-motion (to a laughable degree), he keeps things moving along satisfactorily enough; the zombies, who now seem to have become an "Alien" hybrid, are genuinely unsettling at times. Competent and polished, if undistinguished.
