Vashirdfel Simply A Masterpiece

Actuakers One of my all time favorites.

Voxitype Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.

RoboRabbit89 I will be honest, this film is not my favorite in the series, back when this was a new release on DVD in 2008, my buddy brought his DVD copy over and after seeing it I was let down by it, also I thought in a sweet nostalgic way it was going to be the end of the story. I was wrong.I was mainly disappointed with it because it doesn't really do anything different in terms of story, it's just more of the same, but in a new location this time the Nevada desert. Also it doesn't follow where the second film leaves off which always bugged me, even to this day. I really wanted to see the adventure that took place after the second film with the scientist's little girl.The story from this film and the three sequels on word is pretty lazy, the action scenes are OK but what really lacks is story. As of today I feel a little better about the film I still think it's weak but after seeing it more often the film grew on me. The story is honestly confusing because you don't really know what is going on it's kinda hard to explain without ruining the film. But the action scenes are alright, luckily it's fast paced enough not to be boring which it could have easily done.I give it a 5/10. Not the best but watchable. I'm at least glad Afterlife was better.

view_and_review Resident Evil: Extinction is number three in the franchise. The world is even more bleak and the infection is hyper-epidemic proportions. Milla Jokovich is surviving off the grid and the Umbrella Corporation is still performing clandestine experiments and operations.I just saw a trailer for the latest Resident Evil which prompted me to freshen up on the franchise. I also just saw Kate Beckinsale as Selene in Underworld: Blood Wars and she is a hard act to follow. Alice (Milla Jokovich) is nice. She's skilled, strong and a major badass in her own right but Selene is a notch above.Besides the Selene/Alice comparison, I think I'm suffering from zombie fatigue. I've seen countless zombie movies and what... seven seasons of The Walking Dead? I still like the zombie genre but the Resident Evil zombies are too strong and fast for my liking (not too mention the fact they were climbing structures as well). Besides Alice's new found abilities there was nothing to really distinguish this movie.

adrian_doherty Wow, I'm surprised there were not awards won. The most gripping and suspenseful story to date in this amazing franchise. The characters were perfectly cast, truly amazing CGI and stunts makes for an unforgettable 90 minutes ever. I could possibly watch this movie over and over again. It really reminds me of the lord of the rings franchise, minus the long walks which is replaced with sharp second to second action. It really was a coming of age movie, it came at a time of my life where I needed hope in my life. Thankfully it was here when I needed it and it fully cured my phobia of zombies or as others say, the undead. Hopefully they will continue to make at least 5 more movies. Do yourself a favour, buy this title.

ivo-cobra8 Honestly I was a little disappointed with this flick how it turned out to be! Resident Evil and Resident Evil: Apocalypse are my all time favorite films that I love to death, but Extinction is not my favorite Resident Evil film but I still can watch it, I love this film is not as good as the first two films were that were more scary and more darker, this film isn't! It is more an apocalyptic action film in the desert why is the film in a desert when it is all extinction? Is this a game anymore? Directed by Russell Mulcahy and written by Paul W. S. Anderson. Russell Mulcahy directed Highlander 1 and 2 my all time favorite films and he directed a lot of movies. So now Russell Mulcahy want's to make this film Road Warrior meets the zombie film okay cool idea.Plot: Survivors of the Raccoon City catastrophe travel across the Nevada desert, hoping to make it to Alaska. Alice (Milla Jovovich) joins the caravan and their fight against the evil Umbrella Corp.I still think the first two films are superior movies than this one the third one, I do have a lot of problems, again this movie is just not scaryenough to me and I don't think it is a horror movie at all. It is more a sci-fi action movie, it is still better than Afterlife and Retribution that both of the films were a let down. Milla Jovovich is back to kill more zombies in the third chapter of the hit Resident Evil franchise! An action/horror film filled with huge special effects and edge-of-your-seat terror! Then again...I got addicted to this movie and the fantastic Mila Jovovich who seems to be perfect for this role. Don't get me wrong, as a female, I actually like Ali Larter more (she plays a role in this movie too) but I think that Mila Jovovich is perfect for this role. The makers of this trilogy tried to cash in on three separate movies and I actually don't like this. Each party ended somehow with an "unfinished business" and I don't like open endings too much. From an action point of view, this movie is a first rate action blockbuster. But I still think Apocalypse perfectly ended the story and we didn't need the third movie or more. They should have stop by this one, after this movie the franchise went down hill.Milla Jovovich is superhuman now so there's no real threat to her. Ali Larter does OK despite being Sarah Connor-esque. Oded Fehr does good also, but lacks much screen time. I like Linden Ashby in this movie he did a decent job acting his character, Ali Larter from Final Destination 1 and 2 is in this movie and she is very sexy and very hot. Oded Fehr and Mike Epps from the second movie both come back for the third ride but they both die in this film I do have that problem!Another problem with the film I have is we see the same opening scene from the first movie just this time Alice is killed, I don't like a copy of that scene looking like Alice is dead in this movie! This movie has a lot of problems that I really don't like, but there are things that I do like: Russell Mulcahy has a good eye for visuals and it shows with how crisp the film looks. It is visually stunning at points and the editing is actually coherent. The zombie action and gore is amped up even more so and it delivers. The zombie bird sequence is actually a nice little spin on zombie attacks and it is the highlight of the movie despite some terrible CGI. Milla Jovovich is still the ass kicking Alice so nothing much else here aside from the usual fetishizing her being in towels. Oded Fehr's role gets cut short, but he's still good as Carlos. Ali Larter was OK, but she reminded me too much of Sarah Connor to take her seriously.Even tough with all those problems this film is not that bad, is definitely not a bad movie, Alice saved survivors that Carlos and L.J. were driving together she saved them from zombie birds that they were attacking them.Alice drives a motorcycle and she kicks ass the scavengers trying to kill and eat her awesome! Overall: 8 out of 10 this film has a lot of problems the first two are still MILES way better than this one, but I will still take this movie over Afterlife and awful horrible Retribution!
