"My name is Alice, and this is my world."

Astonishingly, Resident Evil: Retribution shows a great deal of promise in its opening 15 minutes. After an action scene breathtakingly unfolds backwards in slow motion, writer-director Paul W.S. Anderson sets time aside to recap everything that's happened in the Resident Evil franchise so far, which miraculously allows the idiotic prior ins... read more

A bad movie

We tend to forget it but the first Resident Evil was actually not bad at all. Ten years later, surprisingly, they still making some installments and, even more surprising, those sequels are more and more successful at the box-office. On the other hand, with those expensive 3D tickets, they have found a nice trick to increase their revenue, that's for sure. Anyway, I'm officially fed up with this f... read more

OK, I get it... everyone wants to do Milla J, but beyond that (and except for Sienna and Michelle) - how can anyone merit this movie with even a mediocre rating? It has a nice twist, but two hours of high-tech brutality aren't really what I thought to constitute a movie. A video-game - maybe... but not a movie.

Description: Following where the previous film left off, Alice (Milla Jovovich) and the others on the Umbrella Corporation freighter Arcadia face an attack by a fleet of airships led by Alice's former ally, Jill Valentine (Sienna Guillory), who has been brainwashed by Umbrella through a red scarab device attached to her chest. When Alice causes an Following where the previous film left off, Alice (Milla Jovovich) and the others on the Umbrella Corporation freighter Arcadia face an attack by a fleet of airships led by Alice's former ally, Jill Valentine (Sienna Guillory), who has been brainwashed by Umbrella through a red scarab device attached to her chest. When Alice causes an airship to crash into the ship, the resulting explosion knocks her out and throws her into the water.

The story switches to Alice living as suburban housewife, with her husband Todd (Oded Fehr) and deaf daughter Becky (Aryana Engineer). This idyllic life is disrupted when zombies attack. Alice and Becky escape to the streets and are rescued by a student, Rain Ocampo (Michelle Rodriguez), who lets them ride in her car. As the three escape, they are hit by a truck, knocking Rain unconscious while Alice and Becky escape. Alice runs and is attacked by a zombified Todd.

Alice awakens a captive in an Umbrella base. Jill interrogates Alice, who unsuccessfully pleads with her to remember her true identity. During a power failure orchestrated by Ada Wong (Li Bingbing) an associate of Albert Wesker (Shawn Roberts), Alice escapes from her cell and fights her way through a Tokyo simulation and encounters Ada, who seems to have survived the events of Arcadia. Ada explains they no longer work for Umbrella. Wesker appears on screen and reveals that the Red Queen is controlling what remains of Umbrella and he plans to help Alice escape, in order to save what's left of mankind. Ada explains the base is underwater and serves as a testing ground for experiments, and that Ada secretly infiltrated the base to cause the power outage and recover Alice. To infiltrate the base from outside and help Alice and Ada escape, Wesker has organized a team: Leon S. Kennedy (Johann Urb), Barry Burton (Kevin Durand), and also Luther West (Boris Kodjoe), an Arcadia survivor who now works with the team.

Leon's team plants explosives near the entrance of the base, which will detonate in two hours and trap anybody still inside. The group plans to meet with Alice and Ada in a simulated Raccoon City suburbia, identical to the one in Alice's flashback. Leon and his team enter a Moscow simulation, but are cut off by armed Las Plagas zombies. Alice and Ada manage to enter the suburban simulation where they were supposed to meet up with Leon and his team. In the arena the two find Becky, and is revealed that the "suburban Alice" is actually a clone of Alice created by Umbrella for a virus outbreak simulation, and Becky, Todd, and Rain were clones as well. Jill and her mercenaries, consisting of clones of Alice's deceased allies: an "evil" Rain, Carlos and James "One" Shade (Colin Salmon) arrive and demand that they surrender immediately. A shoot-out occurs, resulting in Ada being captured while Alice and Becky escape.

Alice and Becky run into the "good" Rain and head to Moscow simulation, where they meet up with Leon's team. The group escapes the intelligent zombies, and reach an elevator that leads them to submarines that could help them escape, although it shuts off. An enormous Licker appears, with it capturing Becky and killing "good" Rain by throwing her and breaking her neck. The group pursues the Licker, where they encounter Jill's group; another battle ensues, in which Barry and One are casualties. Alice manages to rescue Becky despite Leon's discourage of Becky just being a clone. During their escape from the Licker, they arrive at a cloning facility where Alice and Becky see multiple copies of themselves. Becky asks Alice if she is really her mother, Alice says she is now her mother. The Licker follows them into the cloning facility, where Alice drops grenades, and fires a grappling hook from the grapple gun, and escapes the explosion. They rejoin Leon and Luther as the detonation occurs. The explosion results in the flooding of the facility and the death of Carlos.

The group reaches the surface and await pickup but they are met by a submarine, from which Jill, the "evil" Rain, and a captured Ada emerge. With new orders from the Red Queen to kill Alice, Jill battles Alice. Rain injects herself with the Las Plagas parasite to give her superhuman strength and healing and knocks out Ada and fights Leon and Luther. Alice manages to remove and destroy the scarab device from Jill, returning her to normal. Rain kills Luthor and knocks Leon out. Alice realizes she cannot kill Rain and instead shoots the ice, Rain falls in the water, and vows to get Alice but is dragged under by the Plagas zombies. Leon looks after Ada but Alice collapses from her injuries. She wakes in a helicopter, with everyone left safe. Alice, Ada, Becky, Leon, and Jill (who is no longer being controlled by the Red Queen) travel to Wesker's base: the heavily barricaded and guarded White House. Wesker injects Alice with the T-Virus, returning her former superhuman powers so that she can help save the last of humanity from extinction. Wesker leads them to the roof, telling them this is the last stand of the human race and revealing an army defending against enormous hordes of zombies and mutant creatures.

"Watched on the 27th. So none of the sequels have matched the original, oh well, this installment wasn't too bad. A decent thing I noted about all the installments in this franchise is that each one isn't too long, or maybe that was a sign I was enjoying them, I guess I am a fan of some good zombie killing fun.

"21/4 Well, there goes my faith for this series. Also, fuck all those horrible people who decide to bring my man Colin Salmon back to this series just for a 90-second stand-in role that ends when he is shot in the head."
