Milla J returns as Alice in the third and supposed final installment of this video game movie adaptation. As compared to the first two movies, I think this one pretty much sucks.

I was skeptical originally when I saw the trailers and pictures of Extinction few months back. I thought it was gonna be an all desert, all action, no story, movie. I was right.

Unlike Resident Evil and Resident Evil Apocalypse, this movie pretty much abandons whatever storyline it’s built up and went on a pointless and rather boring journey of zombie killing.

And somewhere towards the end, the producers must’ve realised that they don’t have a proper villian to fight Alice with, and so they made a cheesy villian out of the ’scientist’ guy. The whole thing was pretty lame.

As for Milla’s performance, she’s looking a bit hotter than her Resident Evil 2 self, which I think was her worst looking role. Maybe she’s overshadowed by the hot Jill Valentine (which sadly, didn’t appear, and wasn’t even mentioned, in this movie). Milla J’s Alice in Resident Evil 1 is still the best performance for me.

Ali Larter (the crazy psycho duo-personality girl from Heroes) was also disappointing. She carried a totally secondary supporting role. And the only actor which was carried over from the 2nd one, the military guy, was also insignificant. The reason is all the characters are pretty much the same. No difference in personality. Even the black funny guy from Apocalypse wasn’t as funny. I didn’t even realise it was the same guy

Alice in Resident Evil 1

Alice in Resident Evil Apocalypse. Worst looking. Jill Valentine was introduced, and she rocked.

Alice in Resident Evil Extinction. Better looking than part 2, but the worst movie of the three.

All in all, I wouldn’t recommend Resident Evil Extinction. You’d be better off knowing what you know about the Resident Evil story. This ending is not something you wanna seal the story with.

Should’ve watched Superbad instead.

Resident Evil: Extinction Trailer

Man… I am SO skeptical about this movie. The resident evil series, based on a game, had graced the silver screen twice already. Both of them were good. The sequel, Resident Evil: Apocalypse preceded the first movie in terms of both action and story. It’s got Jill Valentine! She probably outshone Milla J in the second movie.But I don’t see her in Extinction’s trailer. And it looked like the whole movie’s gonna be in the desert. I hope it doesn’t suck.

And what’s with Hollywood turning to game ideas to make movies? Is comic adaptations not enough for them?

Hitman is releasing soon. And I heard they are making Halo.

Ok, that’s it. Will write on the Cage later.
