I am going to make this quick...because this movie doesn't DESERVE a long review. Heck, it doesn't even deserve a review at all! But here's my QUICK review of Resident Evil: Extinction, the movie that taught me how to hate.
Pros...the effects are better. Also, some of the dialogue is written competently.
Negatives...man, are there a LOT of things here. For one, this movie takes Alice's "Mary Sue"ness one step farther...in this movie she is officially the messiah. Seriously, her blood holds the only cure for the Zombie Apocalypse! And yes...Zombie Apocalypse. And no, you don't get to see it happen, you just are told "Oh yeah..the Zombie Apocalypse happened in-between this movie and the last one." I think we skipped a movie in-between...Some more bad things: Butchering of classic characters, butchering the source material, butchering the senses of the viewers...this is a BAD movie. Honestly, this is one of the few movies I've watched that I felt DUMBER watching. It is not redeemable WHATSOEVER. I mean, Apocalypse was stupid, but a lot of the Raccoon City action was really fun. This movie, though, is garbage. You may have noticed that I don't have pictures or anything up for this review. Why? Because if the movie doesn't put forth effort...why should I? Unless you want to either torture yourselves, or you are a movie completionist like me, stay FAR away from this sequel. The first one I thought was good; the second one was stupid, but fun; but THIS movie is a slap in the face for fans of the games and movies ALIKE.
Word of...oh forget it. Look, this movie is garbage regardless. But yeah, swearing, violence, gore...all here. You're warned and stuff...
Final Verdict: 3/10 (My GARBAGE! Award. Congrats, Extinction...)
Also, in order to keep myself SANE...a review of The Amazing Spider-Man will be up today!
