RESIDENT EVIL: RETRIBUTION


This is without a doubt the worst chapter in my beloved but sloppy and slightly nonsensical franchise. It does not move the story forward at all in fact it is a movie based on a video game in which they're playing a video game. The stakes are quite low and Al8ce meets some more game characters which include Ada and a fugly Leon. It has some cool moments the beginning is quite reminiscent of the dawn of the dead remake and there is a nod to James Cameron's masterpiece Aliens. As well as returning cast member Michelle Rodriguez  (Fast and Furious) for absolutely no reason. I appreciate that helmer Paul Anderson (Mortal Kombat) tried to do something new with the franchise but the greatest hits execution but it just doesn't work. That being said it's still kind of fun but becomes to redundant.

Budget: $65m
Domestic Box Office: $42m
Worldwide Box Office: $240m

2.5/5
