Resident Evil Retribution


I just recently watched Resident Evil Retribution in the theater. I’m going to tell you the parts I liked and didn’t like so it may be a spoiler to those who haven’t seen it yet . When I was on my way to the movie I had a feeling that this movie might be kind of like the others were they don’t follow the game’s plot exactly  and kind of just make up characters. This movie surprised me because it of course did what all the other ones did but  it added things to it that I thought made it special and different from the others.  One thing I thought mad e it special was that at the being during the credits they had an action scene going in reverse which is not only different from any Resident Evil movie I’ve ever seen but any movie I’ve ever seen. It was cool and after the reverse got done it replayed the scene in normal time which made it cool to see the difference.

I also forgot to mention that I saw the movie in 3d which I didn’t plan to see it 3d but the ticket sales person misheard  us( my bud and I) which sucked also because we ended up paying more for it than we planned. But anyways it was good in 3d which was impressive because lot’s of movie can’t pull that off. Well I was happy that Alice didn’t have any special powers in this one because I always thought  that it stole the scene from the Umbrella Corp.  zombies and cool weapons that  could be used to fight them . Even though she technically has no powers she still seems to be better than any other human in the whole movie with her fighting, shooting and everything else. But that seems to be the case of the hero in a lot of action movies so I guess it shouldn’t bother me as much as it does .

Another reason that this one was better was for the difference in zombies. Yes in the other ones there were a couple of different ones but not as much as there were in this one. There was a new species of licker, zombies that use guns and there were others to. I was told this was going to be the last one because all the original characters come back even the dead ones  from all the movies. We even get a new character in the movie version Leon (a least I hope he wasn’t in the other ones or I’d feel pretty stupid). Another thing about this one was that it mostly took place inside were the others mostly took place outside except perhaps the first movie.


Well that’s all I’m going to say for now because I don’t want to give away the whole movie even though I gave out a huge chunk of info. If you’re a fan or have played the games then you will probably really likes this one. If you know nothing  about Resident Evil then this movie will be very confusing for you and  I’d also wonder why you start with this movie instead of watching first one but I’m getting off  track and I also recommend watching it in 3d.
