It’s always lunch time for zombies, and this time, there having it in 3D
Plot: Resident Evil: Afterlife is a 2010 3D science-fiction action-horror film written and directed by Paul W. S. Anderson, and starring Milla Jovovich, Ali Larter, Kim Coates, Shawn Roberts, Spencer Locke, Boris Kodjoe, and Wentworth Miller. After the events of Resident Evil: Extinction, the Alice clones (Milla Jovovich) attempt to kill Albert Wesker (Shawn Roberts) at his base in Japan. All the clones are killed in an explosion as Wesker escapes in an aircraft. The original Alice ambushes him, but Wesker injects her with a serum that neutralizes the T-virus in her system, eliminating her superhuman powers and making her human again.
Did It Suck? I had very mixed feelings on how to review this movie. After seeing many 3D movies I have to say hands down it was one of the best I’ve seen in 3D. The reason the 3D was so good is because the movie makers were using James Cameron‘s 3D Fusion Camera System. The story was slow, dull, and lacked any real depth, however; keeping in mind that the film is following the original storyline, they did a good job with it. Some of the action sequences were incredible moving works of art done in slow motion so you can take it all in. What pushed me to one side of the fence over the other was the 3D and the artistic style this movie had. At the end of it all, the 3D and beautifully done cinematography, made up for anything the movie was lacking. For a zombie move it was Worth a Ticket.

As one of the other main reviewers for this site I have to throw in my comment! I disagree that the story was in any way slow, dull, or lacked depth. As Dan points out it is continuing the story from the first three movies and leaves the scene set for a 5th movie and did it very well. By the 4th movie most franchises have completely run out of steam but this one did not, it kept me interested the entire time, no boredom here!
Oh, and I would give it 4 or 4.5 stars too!
