    IMAX & 3D is BEST!

    by vipraygarcia

    Go see it in IMAX 3D and watch the blood splatter out the screen. Not as good as Avengers - then again nothing was this summer...certainly better than The Expendables 2 a total cheesy laughable movie. Milla still looks great for a flat chested woman and the movie certainly left it open for yet another sequel.

    Wait for the DVD

    by tmarankin

    I'm a big fan of the Resident Evil series. However, I was totally disappointed with this latest installment. I did like the fight choreography though. Milla, of course, was sensational as well as the other big name actors. Everyone else was doing B-movie acting or worse. Who wrote this dialogue? Fire them immediately please! Also, as an intelligent person, I questioned most of the situations because they were kind of silly. Example: Why would the team need a computer program or GPS to figure out how to escape to the back of the store? How did Alice suddenly know sign language to talk to her clone-child? I sincerely believe they only made this movie as a precursor to a video game. Therefore, wait for the DVD release.

    Resident Evil: Retribution or should I say Ridicules!

    by gomothepromo

    The movie should be called Resident Evil: Ridicules. I love the series of Resident Evil movies until now! Acting/BAD, story plot/RIDICULES, action segments/OK but not enough of them, computer generated graphics/POOR. Essentially, a waste of money and boring! Save your money and go see End of Watch!

    Alice Is At It Again...Big, Loud, Beautiful and Well-Armed.

    by Alon Patterson

    If you've followed this saga in film this far, the current installment won't disappoint you, as it represents yet another chapter in what appears to be an endless story(line). Still, this one is just as fun to watch as all the others and for the exact same reasons. Plus, you won't get a headache trying to follow the plot line (as in Total Recall). There's actually very little time for a plot here though, what with all the endless creature murder, violent angst and physically impossible body language...Side Note: One mustn?t spend too much time on that body language comment, as the posters alone speak loudly to this point. Without criticism, frankly it amazes me just how many different ways a movie murder can be performed without becoming monotonous. Don't bother counting them here either. You'll never get an accurate figure. All-in-all, this movie's entertaining and worth its ticket price. What more can you ask? Free popcorn? You're dreaming. See this movie. It's not bad.

    Y'all are trippin!

    by keetdamodel

    Sorry, but I really loved this movie...well I am not sorry I feel like my opinion is valid here. This was a good movie..I am a diehard resident evil fan, and this movie totally had me on the edge of my seat because I just didn't know what to expect next. They brought back some essential characters that didn't make such a debut but it is only because it is setting you up for what's next! I just wanted to know what was going on, and the movie explains it. Go see this movie, and at the end of the day if you're a fan, no matter how much you DIDN'T like it guess what? YOU WILL GO TO SEE THE NEXT ONE JUST 'CAUSE YOU WANT TO KNOW WHAT WILL HAPPEN IN IT! And that's that's the point! However some of the acting had me laughing but hey it's all good...still worth the money! GO SEE IT! Milla and Michelle ROCK! My 2 favorite actresses of all time!

    Evil Goes global

    by damenist1

    This movie was action packled, supensful, and had scenes that made you jump out of your seat. It truely added a new unique flavor to the Resident Evil. One that really unfolds all the gaps, leaving you toward the final chapter in this saga. I should also mention the specail effects and animation were out od this world

    by Minni318

    Wasn't as great as i expected, not as great as the others, but all in all its ok. I wish I hadn't spent the money to see it in IMAX thinking it was going to be as great as the others but oh well.

    It just may have been the best one...

    by Chrisinpa

    They had me from the first explosion. The opening credits just may have been the very best that I've seen: Creative, well-shot, original, exciting. Saying more than that would spoil it. After the opening, they provided an overview that they gave to get old and new viewers in the right frame of mind for the action to come. Once the movie started, they never let up---moved quickly and purposefully. The action was just what you'd expect--violent, well-timed, just the right amount of ridiculousness to fulfill your escapist-action needs.

    Have you ever played a video game where the opener and the cut scenes were just really well done? The kind where you went "how come they can't do these graphics throughout the game?!? That's how the movie was. They even made the live characters look like video-game people (they had "anime hair").

    I had fun. I thought the ending/set-up for 'next' movie was a little crazy. But I had so much fun I said "heck, I'll deal with that when the time comes!

    Cut and Paste With a Few Extras

    by

    This movie seemed to be more of a cut and paste work. Bits and pieces of past Resident Evil movies were shown. There were a few twists on the plot using past cast members. Just not really all that different and engaging. I was left with the feeling of "Why did I come?" when the credits rolled. All I could think of was the same old hash rehashed. Save your money and pass on this.

    Good action but lacked depth. Movie was condensed way too much!

    by

    Overall the movie was good and the effects were great. When Retribution was first announced, it was supposed to be over 2 hours long. Why did the director cut over 40 minutes from the movie? I believe this cut hurt the movie overall. The cut probably had more story and content we missed at the movies. I know it will get a blu-ray extended version but it should have never been cut from original format. See Wiki for original run time. Good movie, but I'd wait until you can actually see the entire movie on Blu-ray release date. I look forward to watching the original score not cut.

    Sadly, No :-(

    by Underwood1984

    I had high hopes for this Movie. I loved the first one and I have been slowly disliking those that followed more and more as they each came out. I love the games (Resident Evil 4 is the best by far on the Wii). But the sad truth is that this movie doesn't add anything to the franchise. Sure we have a few characters from the games that we love, but this movie doesn't do them justice. If you loved the first one, you won't like this one. I highly recommend this movie on Netflix or Redbox, but it is simply not worth the money to see it in theaters. And if you have never seen any of the movies before, don't start with this one.
