                                  Resident Evil: Retribution




Resident Evil: Retribution is an action movie that focuses on the character Alice. She has been fighting through this zombie outbreak since it started and even got bitten by a zombie in the earlier movies. This is not a movie from a zombie’s perspective though. The zombie virus mutated and bonded with Alice’s cells and had made her a strong force against the zombies that are now taking over the earth. In the last movie Alice got this virus bonded mutation removed from her cells by a man who wishes to be the new leader in the new world. Since then a company called Umbrella Corporation had made an underground facility in order to simulation the start of the zombie outbreak in different parts of the world. Coincidentally the company uses clones of Alice and other people in the simulation until the only person left alive is the clone Alice’s daughter whom Alice must now protect and escape the facility with. Although the movie is action packed and the special effects for the zombies make them look almost real, the zombie’s overall knowledge was stretched because zombies could not have the strength or skill to be able to run and power machine guns at people, also there was no real plot of the movie. The whole movie was just a group of people trying to help Alice escape Umbrella Corp.’s facility. The directors and producers could have brought a lot more into the plot to make the movie better and have more context and material to the movie to make it up to the standards the previous movies had. Also at some points in the film the lines were said as though it was being read directly from the script and without any real emotion. At 59 minutes into the film just hearing the characters talk sounds as though they have no emotion and are talking like a robot. All in all the overall movie wasn’t bad but it also wasn’t very good. I give this movie 3 out of 5 brains.
