Resident Evil:Retribution

So we have come to the 5th...or 4th...nope 5th Resident Evil. (Yes that is Sarcasms) I must say I think this might be my least favorite out of all of the Resident Evil movies. I can't decide if this was my least favorite or if Resident Evil Afterlife is my least favorite. Ok let's get into this

This movie starts with Alice fighting off an Umbrella controlled Jill Valentine. Alice is blown away and we are left not knowing what happened to Claire, K Mart or Claire's brother. Alice wakes up in a Dawn Of The Dead style neighborhood. Alice is married to Carlos.....which made me smile ear to ear!!!! They have a little girl named Becky. Then all of a sudden Zombies attack

Then we see Alice wake up in an underground Umbrella hive. She knows no one and is forced to run around trying to figure out the next move. We find out the back story to how Umbrella got it's money. Then we finally start to see some of our favorite past characters. Sure they are clones but we are SOOOO happy to see them!

We have Michele Rodriquez as Rain, Boris Kodjoe as Leon, Colin and Solmon as One, and the best one Oded Fehr as Carlos!!! I honestly think the reason I don't like Afterlife is because there is no Carlos. There was not even enough of him in this film but some is better than none.
Here is the break down the movie is filled with some really bad actors and some not so bad actors. Some scenes are awesome and really exciting and others make me sad because the acting is but so terrible! All of the returning cast is fantastic but the new ones, beside the little girl Becky, are terrible.

I did not see the movie in 3D but I can see where it was probably good. There were alot of slow motion things flying toward the camera. I have to say they used slow motions WAYYYYY too much. The one thing I was the most disappointed in was the fact there were not enough Zombies. I also hated HATED that there were so many unanswered questions. Yes we know you want a sequel but I have no idea where half of the characters are!

It's not a bad movie but there have been better Resident Evil Movies
