Resident Evil: Retribution 3D

I am a fan of all the Resident Evil games as well as the previous movies. This movie delivered just what is needed and if someone says different, then they are not actual fans of this genre. I don't think you can enjoy a franchise if you are selective in what you like about it. The end result would, for the most part, be disappointing for you. The movie gives you exactly what you need in the elements of the games as well as the elements of an action film. People may find Alice weak in this movie, but I am trying to figure how one woman, through injuries and unique fighting skills as a human makes her weak. When it comes to storytelling, they did just how the games are done, players are given the back story and they have to learn how to survive throughout the game/movie. Just like the game, there are casualties. Just like the game, the scariest and annoying creatures are presented (In the game if you are not very skilled, those creatures are not easy to kill, which is annoying if you keep dying). For those who are not fans of the franchise whether it is the game or movie, this may not please you because it has the elements of a game and movie. So the things that takes place in the movie is something you may not identify with. One reason is how characters interact which one another, which is how they react in the games. It is not the same as in a regular action film. It may also seem long and boring (In the game it can get like that if you cannot figure out how to get from point A to B without dying) but in comparison to the game, you would be doing just what the movie implies; getting the heck out of there with a strategy in mind. I give it five stars because the movie is the best adaptation of a game franchise and Milla Jovovich is good at playing Alice. I can't wait until the next installment of the movie comes out. As a note I would say for the gamer's to go back if they can and play Resident evil 1 to 4 and you would understand. The movies are just a bonus and not an exact adaptation of the games but the essence of them.

Resident Evil Retribution. Currently watching this with my husband on my birthday. Great movie.

I don't get the people who trash these movies. What are they expecting? The RE series has never been about superb storytelling, characterization, and acting. It's about style and excitement! And that's what these movies are: High-octane action movies for guys. Especially their inner 14-year olds. People here spend a lot of time trashing the RE movies, and this movie in particular. Why? It delivers what I've come to expect here. Some awesome action sequences, an interesting (albeit completely nonsensical) storyline, and some really incredible cinematography. What else do you want? I submit that if that's not good enough for you, then you're just watching the wrong kind of movie. Those who trash the story of Resident Evil: Retribution as "the worst of the lot", or whatever, need to go watch something else. It is what it is. I for one think it is excellent! I like how the storylines of the movies continue from movie to movie, which each one ending in a cliffhanger. You never know what the next movie will bring! Yeah, the story is complete garbage. But that's what's enjoyable about it! Invite a few friends, have a beer, put your brain firmly in the "off position", and enjoy! And there's a lot to enjoy here. The awesomeness that is Milla Jovovich cannot be denied. Sure, the character of Alice is weak, and in this movie, she turns into Ripley. But when she's killing zombies with a chain and pistol, it's so awesome I don't care. My brain says, "This sucks." My inner 14-year old says, "THIS IS AWESOME, DUDE!" That's what happens, man. If you want to enjoy it, you just have to surrender to the awesome. The movie has a lot of interesting ideas. I also like that it took a lot of elements from the RE 4 video game, which I loved. Leon Kennedy is here, and so is Ada Wong. They both certainly look the part, although their characterization is actually STRONGER in the video game than in the movie! Here, they're just generic action heroes, but I'm okay with that. Another cool element from RE 4 (the game) was the introduction of the Los Plagues (sp?) virus. A lot of people were confused by the zombie nazi's driving jeeps. But in the context of RE 4, this makes more sense. In that game, a small European village was taken over by the Los Plagues virus. It doesn't turn people into zombies exactly - rather it changes their insides to be like bugs and changes their minds. So they still can operate weapons and such. And some of them were clothed in military style uniforms, same as the game and movie. If you haven't played the game, then this doesn't make so much sense. I thought it was a pretty cool tie-in. Another thing I am really liking about the this movie and also "Afterlife" is the 3D. The 3D in these movies is really well done. Out of all the 3D movies in my collection, those two movies probably have the best 3D of all, and that's really saying something. Again, it just shows how good these movies are when it comes to the cinematography. So the final verdict? Resident Evil: Retribution is awesome! It is my favorite of all the RE movies so far. Those who say it is "the worst" just don't know what they're talking about. They're watching the wrong type of movie, expecting the wrong things. I watch these movies with only a few expectations: Excellent fight choreography, excellent cinematography, and an interesting story (that I don't expect will make sense). This movie delivers on ALL THREE of those. And it sets things up nicely for RE 6. So don't listen to the haters. This is not Oscar-worthy material. It doesn't pretend to be. It is a mindless-junk action movie for the mindless-junk action movie lover's soul! And it totally rocks. Peace!

Cette suite est tout simplement explosive . On en prend plein les mirettes et pleins les yeux. La 3d est tout simplement époustouflante, immersive et impressionnante. Bien plus qu'au cinéma ! Maintenant il y a un mais......en effet , étant un grand fan des jeux comme des films , je dois avouer que je m'attendais a ce que l'histoire avance quand même un peu plus. Effectivement , après avoir visionné le film on se rend compte que ce film en plus d'être une démo technique impressionnante , a juste pour but de nous faire patienter pour le final qui s'annonce......magnifique. Le film tourne En Rond .....mais se laisse tout de même regarder et apprécier. A consommer sans modération. Les acteurs sont toujours aussi intéressant,surtout Alice, et les nouveaux venu .......bienvenu ! Que l'on aime ou pas , ce Resident Evil reste l'un des meilleurs de la série après le premier et afterlife. Vivement la suite , en espérant qu'ils ne nous referons pas le coup du film '' tampon ''.

Bel prodotto, ottimo film! Il film parla da solo, per i fan della saga è imperdibile. Finalmente hanno fatto tutta la serie in steelbook con la stessa logica, in modo che ad averli tutti vicini fanno la loro porca figura. Peccato per l'interno senza un foglietto o delle stampe, sarebbe stato il massimo!

とてもよかったです。ありがとうございました。

estupenda, una edicion espectacular, adoro el genero y esta serie mas por sobre otras. la recomiendo ampliamente. comprenla.no se arrepentiran

This is one of the most previous of all the Resident Evil movies and probably the coolest and most stylish for its action quality. I like this episode because unlike all the other movies, even though I think they are all totally cool (particularly the second one) almost every single scene that takes place in this is all totally cool, action packaged and well-thought for a resident evil movie. Its true that in the other movies, mankind stands some chance at survival but now, in this one 'Resident Evil: Retribution' nearly all of mankind if not the whole thing is wiped out my the zombies and all of Umbrella corp's abominations in general, the whole world has been turned into a zombie and monster infested hell hole and the whole planet's situation and understanding in general is all about Umbrella Corp and its research program to create the ultimate abomination (and for god knows what reason, which I think is at the same time crazy but thats also what makes it so cool in terms of its awesome quality in a zombie slaying action.) In this episode of Resident Evil, the main character played by Milla Jovovich has to team up with some elite commandos, infiltrate one of Umbrella Corp's main company plants, undermine and take down its powerful, armed corporate forces and kill of a whole legion of gruesome monsters in doing so, all guns blazing throughout! Totally Awesome! Because Im such a fan of resident evil, anything to do with monster slaying action and this movie was so cool, I give this full marks and would recommend it to anyone who likes the same movie or games action genre.
