Resident EvilRetribution
Dir: Paul W. S. Anderson
2012
***
It's still a guilty pleasure but they are flogging a dead horse a bit now. I liked the way found a way to re-introduce past fan favorites such as Michelle Rodriguez and Colin Salmon but the idea of using different places to test Zombie invasions wasn't explored enough and the whole thing was a wasted opportunity and a half-hearted copy of the first four films. It's like in music where it's in most bands contracts that the 5th album is a greatest hits, this is essentially Resident Evil: Greatest hits so far 2002-2012 which is a bit lazy and a bit boring. We need something new for the franchise to survive, somehow I still want more!
