Review of Resident Evil: Retribution (2012) by Deeke — 20 Sep 2012

Okay, the action is good, and the overall fighting sequences are well done. But the story is ludicrous. I did like the realistic scenes that took place right as the zombie invasion happened...however it didn't take long for the film to completely rehash the first iteration with the Red Queen being the enemy and having to escape the base.

Sure the movie has good parts and bad parts, but overall it felt so estranged from the video game series that it shouldn't have been called Resident Evil in any way. It should have been called Insane Action-Zombie Fighter #5.

Definitely check the trailers and reviews before you buy tickets, because you may be sorely disappointed.
