Watch Resident Evil: The Final Chapter For Free

Powerful

Good story, Not enough for a whole film

There's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.

Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.

The film is great. In fact, the majority of the franchises' movies are spectacular. The reason most people disagree is because the storyline can be hard to follow. The writers and directors understood the direction the films were heading. I watched all six movies consecutively, so it was easy to follow the story. However, most watched as the films came out, which would make for confusing cliffhangers and forgotten backstory.Overall, this specific film is a masterpiece. Being misunderstood is not easy, especially when you are a movie.Also many people complain about the editing and effects. "Why can't they do simple action packed scenes without shaking he camera?" First off, I have never seen an action scene without quick camera direction changes or shakiness. Second, I feel this adds to the intensity of the scene. Most people writing these reviews look at one aspect of the film, and then criticize it harshly. Don't read the reviews in the first place. Watch the movie yourself, and judge it for your tastes, not someone else's.

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

The part of the movie that i liked was when Alice wakes up and the red queen tells her that the daughter of the CEO of the company was her and she did not realized it but it was cool for the movie

Alice is told to do something. Run, run, fight, fight. Meets some people from a previous film. More running and fighting She meets some people who explains what's been happening. She does what she needs to do in the nick of timeTHE END.
