Review of Resident Evil: Retribution (2012) by Dean M — 08 Mar 2013

I'm a fan of Milla Jovovich's action-horror film series as well as this fifth movie has become garage and sometimes confused. I was wondering where are Chris and Claire Redfield? They are supposed to be in this film - how disappointed!

Back to the new story, Jovovich stays the same strong, charming, loving and kick-ass Alice as we knew she would be. She was so heartfully to her deaf surrogate daughter (played by real-life hearing-impaired Aryana Engineer) as well as her American sign languages were okay while she was communicating with her. Given that the ending of Resident Evil: Afterlife have hints that anticipated game characters from the Resident Evil series will finally have an appearance which have been predicted correctly Leon Kennedy (Johann Urb) and Ada Wong (Bingbing Li) who is gorgeous. Visual effects are impressive and the fight choreography is outstanding.

We see the return of Michelle Rodriguez as Rain Ocampo, Oded Fehr as Carlos Olivera, and some others who died in the previous films. They're actually just clones, made to serve the Umbrella Corporation.

I'm hoping director Paul W.S. Anderson will prepare for the sixth and final installment - can't wait!
