Review: Resident Evil Afterlife

Resident Evil Afterlife is the fourth installment of the long running franchise that is based upon the even longer running video game series. This installment of the series has us yet again following Alice (Milla Jovovich), the only surviving character from the original movie, as she fights to survive and tries to find Claire Redfield(Ali Larter) and the group of survivors she led from the first movie. Along the way she confronts the Umbrella Corporation and the series ultimate baddie Albert Wesker. Can she finally put Umbrella's sinister plans to rest? Only time will tell.....

REA is not the best of the RE franchise, but it is far from the worst. The acting was par for the course. The CGI and special effects were excellent, but I don't necessarily know if it was worth 3D being added. The story was alright, but there was no real resolution to the main conflict. At this point I am to far invested into the series to not have conflict resolution. It's not necessary to have the story overall to come to the end, but [SPOILER ALERT] we basically have a similar set up for the next movie (Yes it has been confirmed that they are making another one) that Resident Evil Extinction had for this movie. What makes it worse is that the cliffhanger they leave us with is so much more larger.

Overall, Resident Evil Afterlife is okay, but it is not worth the 3D. If you can see it in normal definition do that. If not you can wait and ......

RENT IT.
