THE PLOT:

In a not to distant future, destroying Raccoon City wasn't enough. The infection escaped through the crows and soon the virus lays waste to the world. A handful of survivors lead by Claire (Ali Larter) search for a better life while trying to stay alive. Alice (Milla Jovovich) discovers that Alaska is free of the Virus and set forth to help her friends get to safety, but Umbrella is always watching and wants Alice.

Dr. Issacs sets forth a plan to capture Alice to run the gauntlet that a ton of Alice clones failed to pass.

ZEDD'S OPINION:

In my opinion the series just keeps getting better as it goes along. Again as a fan of the game, this is a different direction then the game went with it's third sequel and I couldn't be happier, by changing the direction of the movie series it's not stuck with the same plotlines and worrying about being in the game shadow anymore but stills stays fateful to the basic game principals. The you never know what's going to attack you type thing. 9 STARS.

VOLTRON'S OPINION:

I too enjoyed this movie, there are some character issues and I wish they had more verity of monsters then zombies but other then that I agree with Zedd. 9 STARS as well.

ON THE POSITIVE SIDE (+ HITS):

+ CAST (The cast does a great job.)
+ NEW STORY (ZEDD thought it was cool they went with a new story.)
+ EFFECTS (Great as always.)
+ MONSTERS (The creature effects were impressive.)

ON THE NEGATIVE SIDE (- MISSES):

- MINOR CHARACTER ISSUES (Some of the characters didn't quite work for me.)
- NO VERITY (Mostly zombies.)

...AND FINALLY...

- FAN BASED (Again if you aren't a fan of the games of the first two movies, then this isn't for you.)
