Solemplex To me, this movie is perfection.

BallWubba Wow! What a bizarre film! Unfortunately the few funny moments there were were quite overshadowed by it's completely weird and random vibe throughout.

Tayloriona Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.

Freeman This film is so real. It treats its characters with so much care and sensitivity.

rocky_lifter69 I've long had a strange relationship with the Resident Evil movies. The game series has been among my favorites since I first fired up the original on my Playstation over 20 years ago. Despite the movies never really following the games (save for Apocalypse and some characters/monsters throughout the various movies) I always thought they were ok as dumb zombie action movies. But they were clearly out of steam by the time Retribution rolled around and the time was right to end things. Unfortunately, that end is this incomprehensible mess of a movie.The Plot Issues Oh where do I even start with this? I understand it being difficult to tie together 5 previous movies with numerous characters and plot twists but they clearly didn't care to make things even approaching coherent. For example, they immediately retcon and/or recycle several elements from previous films for no real reason aside from convenience. Remember where we left off the end of Retribution? With Alice being reinfected with the T-Virus by Wesker and seemingly teaming up with Umbrella for humanity's last stand in Washington DC? That's literally wiped away here in the first five minutes. Wesker apparently "pretended" to give her the virus before betraying her off screen prior to the start of this. So instead of a last stand in Washington DC we're given a race against time back to Raccoon City because apparently there's an airborne cure which will kill all the zombies and save the human race. Never mind that we've known there's a cure since the original and it's been used in several movies. Suddenly it's the deus ex machine for literally the entire series. But even lazier and most groan inducing is the final twist. Remember Apocalypse (part 2) when we learn the T-Virus was developed by a doctor to help his young daughter walk again, with the girl joining our protagonists? This is actually a nice allusion to the game series as Resident Evil 2's main villain was a mutated doctor who had worked on the virus and had his young daughter as a character helped by the protagonists. So of course they bring it back here... with Alice. Yes, the virus was developed by a father for his ailing daughter, who turns out to be the original Alice. No, not the Alice we've been following for six movies, as we find out *plot twist* she's a clone and has been the entire time. The film series has obviously done a lot with clones in the previous movies but this is such a lame move right at the end of the final movie just for the sake of a supposed big twist. I could continue on about more plot issues but there's no point: this movie is a mess and the good guys win. All you need to know.I'm Sorry, Who Are You? One nice touch is bringing back several characters for this movie, namely Claire Redfield. But any other character is just there to die. On this front, can someone explain to me why Ruby Rose is such a big thing in Hollywood right now? I don't get it as I have yet to see anything in any of her movies in the way of charisma or on screen magnetism. Granted, her part here was minor at best and could have been played by a million other nameless actors to similar effect. But that is the issue with most characters aside from Alice: we don't care. Even Wesker has nothing much to do in this movie as he plays second fiddle in his little screen time.Can You Focus For A Second? One frustrating aspect of this movie is the shaky camera work and editing. Segments of this movie feature such rapid fire cutting that it can make it difficult to decipher what is happening in certain action scenes. This isn't an uncommon occurrence in modern action movies but it wasn't present in the previous movies and it needs to stop. Film your action in a way that doesn't confuse the audience and stop having a cut every 1.5 seconds. Even if your movie is garbage at least it won't leave your audience trying to figure out what the hell just happened.Glad It's Over The Resident Evil film series is better off finished. They always favored more action over horror and while this made some sense when the original came out in 2002, it's course has been run. Despite starting up several years before the recent zombie craze, they quickly faced into the background as loud, dumb, and generic action flicks that managed to not do the series justice (similar to the Transformers movies). The Resident Evil games have their roots in B-movie horror and could easily be rebooted in this vein a few years down the road. As such, it was time for this series to end. As far as this movie goes, it's only really necessary if you want something approaching closure to the film series. Otherwise, this is an easy skip. 2/10

saru-88447 I think this was the best of all the parts, partly/maybe because I watched not in theatre where more of time/energy/money would've been spent & my expectation would've been skyrocketed. But there were some nice action scenes especially the war like scene was a good one, they somewhat twisted but screenplay could've been still better.

rb_rhyno Just when i think Paul W.S Anderson has hit rock bottom, he breaks out a laser drill and takes us down even further! this should have gone DIRECTLY to DVD..

ninjamasterzer0 This movie is more of a rebooted sequel than an actual ending. Whoever wrote this script must have been new to the job and never watched any of the prior movies.1. In RE Apocalypse, it's stated the T-virus was created to cure Dr. Ashford's, a level 6 researcher, daughter from the inability to walk. In RE The Final Chapter, Dr. Marcus, the founder of Umbrella, created the virus to reverse his daughter Alicia of premature aging.2. At the end of RE Afterlife: Wesker gets his brains blown out, shot numerous times by Chris and Claire and then gets blown up and lives. Dies from blood loss by getting his legs crushed by a steel door and then cries to be saved. He doesn't even put up a fight, he just stays in one room the entire movie.3. At the end of RE Retribution, Wesker gives Alice her powers back, he then teams up with Leon, Chris, Ada, and Jill for a fate deciding battle at the White House. The Final Chapter, Wesker and Alice lose all their powers for an unknown reason, no mention of the battle at all and no mention of any of the other characters.Those are the biggest plot holes in the film, with others throughout. Movie just feels rushed. It's 1 per swing jump cut fight scenes, time extending slow motion scenes that make the movie look like a quick time event, and terrible writing are good reasons this movie needs to be the last one by Anderson.Hopefully someone who's actually played the games picks up a rebooted version of RE and we can get a respectable movie franchise that follows closer to the games. At least the CGI movies are a good alternative with a new one, Vendetta, coming out soon.
