    I like how they leave a cliffhanger in almost every RE movie, and then just throw that away in the next one and need to find a way to justify it.

    Not trying to defend the movie, but the reason the convenient drawer was there was because Umbrella wanted Alice to work for them again, so after they pretty much tortured her with banshee screeching she would agree to work for them and eventually put on the gear in the convenient drawer.

      sonicjrjr14 Degeneration was pretty cool but I never got what the point of Damnation was. I mean the action was pretty cool but what was actually happening? Also the voice acting (at least in the English version) was brutal.

      100legodude I thought the acting and lip syncing was fine, much better than the 1st one at least.
      The plot of Damnation is Leon "vacationing" in war torn Russia when he really went because he heard a lead that the President Belikova was using monsters called BOW's to overpower the government control and rule over the country with an iron fist. Along the way Leon meets up with Ada and some locals to help him defeat Belikova.

      @RenaldyCalixte 10 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Nothing in that movie made an ounce of sense. Like Megatron captured Sam at the beginning of the movie yet proceeds to torture him instead of kill him. The fact that the rescue scene after the torture scene Optimus and the gang rescue Sam and there's a really cool fight except this really cool fight takes place 45 MINUTES INTO THE MOVIE AND why because they want to waste your time with nonsense about Sam's college life (and when I say nonsense I mean inane college sex jokes instead of I don't know giving Sam an actual personality or people in his life that I actually care about) and then the rest of the 2 hour movie has unexplained deaths and resurrection of Optimus Prime and over the top mission to Egypt that isn't explained well to have an over the top fight with teh Fallen.

    • @shannonharris5173
      @shannonharris5173 10 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      first of all megatron didn't torture Sam he needed to get information that imprinted onto Sam's brain from the cube , we can all agree that Sam's personality is annoying but that shouldn't matter because the fucking movie is called Transfomers , they had to go to egypt because that's where the Pyramids are and it had the machines that Fallen need and the Matrix which has some kind of power i really can't remember it's been a while since i last watched it . The Matrix has power from the past Primes similar to the All Spark what you didn't fucking watch the movie

Yes the movies would be MUCH better if they followed the games but I don't compare them to the games I compare them to other action movies and in that respect they're top of the line. These movies are pure ridiculous fun. Give them a break.

    • @Chillguy99
      @Chillguy99 9 ปีที่แล้ว

      Zero the Faceless I think Paul W. S. Anderson was more interested in making films like Ghosts of Mars i.e. fun, campy action flicks instead of atmospheric horror films. A real version of the 1st game would play like a cross between Night of the Living Dead and The Others (I would absolutely love to see that), unfortunately hollywood execs don't seem to trust in the patience of today's audiences. They're mistaken in that way but they are correct to give Anderson's RE series the "Resident Evil" title. The first RE film is literally Ghosts of Mars and yet GOM didn't make any money but RE 1 did because of the built in fan base of that title. None of that really bothers me, the sad thing is that a perfect cinematic version of the first game would be both scary and fun and it would do good business if they just took a chance and did a reboot.

    • @Chillguy99
      @Chillguy99 9 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Yeah, the action is superior to the moody bleak, shaky-cam nonsense of most modern action films. I can suspend my disbelief indefinitely and I have simple tastes when it comes to action. Give me sexy, politically incorrect badass women with guns shooting monsters in beautiful, still wide shots so I can actually understand where one combatant is in relation to another. The action is preposterous but it does actually take place in the time space continuum as opposed to taking place in the editing room where the shaky cam and fast cutting is used to disguise the uninspired laziness of the filmmaker's vision (i.e. the atrocious Transformers: Age of Extinction). Sorry to drone on here but let me make one more point. Are there better action movies than this? Hell yeah, back in the 90's there were action flicks that were WAY better but in comparison to the badly filmed crap of today like The Hunger Games, World War Z or the Taken films it's top of the line.

    These movies are all like a badly written fan fiction by someone who didn't fully understand the Resident Evil world or its characters. They just took shit from the games and put it into a new movie. It can be a little bit entertaining for those of us who like Resident Evil or just mind numbing action movies but it's just like a poorly written fanfic. They might have had a cool enough idea but they just didn't know what they were doing and for some reason thought that they should continue on with the story.
    PS. The reason why some of the "zombies" are intelligent enough to operate weapons and march in formation is because they're not zombies. They are pretty much the Ganados (sp?) from RE4. They are being controlled by the Las Plagas. They're not dead; just kind of brainwashed.

Action movies doesn't need that much logic like a thriller (like inception). It needs noise, lights, gun fires. I watch this movie to kill time, enjoy it's effect, not picking on its logic.

    I just was that movie yesterday and was surprised, it literally made Afterlife looking like an Oscar winner. This movie hadn't any dialogue except from the intorregation, the scene when Alice meets Ada and the ending. The rest just was "Let's go there! take cover! Go! Fire!" and such. I don't expect much from those movies but looking at the trailers I though this movie would have more story, dialogues and emotions. I mean you see the dead characters from the previous movies as enemies and even having evil Jill. I though it would be more emotionful for Alice and trying to get them on the good side but they just were randomly there like any other enemy to get killed and just at the end Alice gets the idea to take off that device from Jill and Jill even showed less emotion and guilt than in the bad RE5 game. This movie just felt like a bad video game and it was 100% action, didn't see any horror elements in it or character development, except from Wesker but it didn't make sense.

BEST PLOTLINE EVER!" no. i ahd fun with a fun game :D same thing with the resident evil movies

    (at around 52 mins) During the car chase with the Zombie Russian army the music playing is called 'Phantom Chase' by tomandandy. This references music from the original Resident Evil (1996) video game, particularly 'Second Floor Mansion'.
    Jensen Ackles was considered for the role of Leon S. Kennedy, but the role later went to Johann Urb.
    Although Carlos Olivera has a major role in the plot, Oded Fehr's name is curiously absent from the opening titles.
    Matthew Mercer who voiced Leon S. Kennedy from the games and the voice used for the audition's reference audio, tried out for the role and didn't get it. He still finds the situation hilarious to this day.
    The first shot in the movie of Alice rising from the water is entirely CGI.
    With a 5.4 IMDB score, this is the lowest rated film in the Alice-focused live action Resident Evil franchise on IMDB.
    The costume and brainwashing device that Jill Valentine (Sienna Guillory) wears on her person are taken directly from Resident Evil 5 (2009). The difference is that in that game, Jill is mind-controlled to ally with Albert Wesker (not Umbrella), and it is during a long fight with Chris Redfield and Sheva Alomar (not Alice, who hasn't appeared in the games) that they manage to remove the device, after which Jill comes to her senses again.
    The demise of Rain was the fall in the icy water. It was Milla Jovovich's suggestion that the swimming zombies had to appear as well and it was added during production.
    This is the first time in Resident Evil history that Jill and Leon have ever met. Canon or otherwise.
    The scene between Ada Wong and Alice in the underground office is a re-enactment of the scene in Resident Evil 4 (2005) where Leon S. Kennedy meets with Ada for the first time in the Salazar Family castle bedroom. Wong wears the exact same outfit in both the game and this movie. The film also includes Ada's climbing pistol and her interactive sunglasses from that game.

      The thing is that (a) they dont need to "represent" the game. Even if it would be better at some cases, they dont have to, and (b) it would be silly if the movie would be more like the games. I never played the games, but I did watch other people play and you will need a damn good explanation why would movie need to have puzzle and fetch elements like the game. Like....this item is missing, you need to go to some other building to find it, or...do you see this jewel? You need to place it somewhere in the wall and then some door will open, or....you need to press this button, so the key (or whatever it was) will fall out from the statue.
      At some point, you would have to separate the movie so much from the game, because it would be just silly and when you do that, then there would probably be some game fan who would say how the he/she cant enjoy the movie, because it does not represent the game.

Like....this item is missing, you need to go to some other building to find it, or...do you see this jewel? You need to place it somewhere in the wall and then some door will open, or....you need to press this button, so the key (or whatever it was) will fall out from the statue."
      Then don't put that in the movie, this is where an adaptation has to have changes. This is no excuse of replacing all we loved about the games for an incoherent, contradictive, insulting, brain-damage, effortless mess with no character depth, arches, bad dialogue and acting, bad effects and dull action scenes. Even if you separate the games from the movies, they STILL don't work at all on their own. Especially when you HAVE to play the games to know the characters and monster shoehorned in with no backstory, nor explanation. These movie have TOO MANY problems to even bother comparing them to the games. They are in the level of Transformers 2 bad, if not worse. The point about an adaptation is that you take the best elements players love, and you craft and compelling horrifying story around it. It doesn't HAVE to have the puzzle nor files, but STILL make the experience a survival horror with the same tension, atmosphere, fright, and corner begging of what made the game one of the best of it's genre. The live-action movies didn't do that. I didn't even try to succeed on what it wanted to be on it's own either. And now that's been 14 years. This movie franchise has done nothing but waste our time.

    Wesker had the T-Virus, which has regenerative properties... And the different types of zombies used in the movie relate to the different types of zombie used in the games, and show the different levels of mutation the virus has done as time has passed. A lot of the stuff said can be answered by the producers XD

    I actually like this film, its certainly better than Apocalypse and Afterlife thats for sure. His criticism about the different zombies is unfounded. The entire purpose of that facility is to test Biological weaponry on a human population
    (presumably to sell to some superpower). It would make sense that they have several types of bio-hazards.
    I thought it was cool how they could change night to day, make it rain, etc. Showing they (umbrella) had total control over the enviroment itself
    Most people criticism it for not being more like the game but there were many aspects of this film that honored the game (The elevator lift, the last scene with the Ice lake was from RE Veronica) The characters from the games have always been mostly generic, its the same story every game. Evil corporation unleashes a bio-hazard, a hero tries to survive while finding out more information.
    Thats literally every RE game ever made.
    The movie had many cliches and came across more action than horror, I think that's the fairest criticism. That and Paul Anderson is monopolizing, they need a fresh pair of eyes on this project. RE3 was one of the only films not directed by him and IMO one of the best

    • @rodriga1985
      @rodriga1985 9 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      You should read the original 1st draft script that George A. Romero wrote. It's online. It would've been a whole, different (better) path for this series. PWSA ruined this franchise for letting the studio be involved too much. It's like you said, he was in it for the money. Years ago (when I was still giving this series a chance) I purchased RE: apocalypse on DVD and man, what pure dog shit it was. Why was mike Epps in it, is beyond me. I gave up totally after that fearing more of the same. I still haven't watched any of the rest, and I probably wont, but I've been such a huge fan of the video game series that my expectations have an always will be too much. Sorry. They should just leave it alone.

    Playing Devil's Advocate, here are the good things about Retribution that I can think of: Michelle Rodriguez, Michelle Rodriguez beating up two guys, Alice vs Jill, The home invasion zombie scenes (Probably the only scary scene), the opening (agree to disagree), fairly good action sequences (even if they don't always make sense), the sign language moments (you can blame Switched at Birth for me liking that), Oded Fehr (hey, I like the guy even if all his scenes weren't that great). That's it.

      no, they wouldn't be awsome if they weren't called that, they would be equally shit, just forgettable cause they wouldn't be representations of a beloved game. and they wouldn't have a shit ton of shitty sequels cause the first movie would've bombed in the box office for how shitty it was. and if this would have been great cause then motherfucking PWS anderson wouldn't have had to direct more of this garbage and be a lazy fuck with security measures letting a stunt man die and another be mutilated.
      but since they were called residentevil, people went and watch this, and let PWS anderson be the shitty director he is and letting him kill and mutilate a couple of stunt men.

    I can explain why the zombies are both mindless and not mindless. There are these parasites called Las Plagas from the fourth Resident Evil game. The parasite causes the body to become zombie like in a way in which they are called Ganados. They however are not dead nor are they zombies. They are like puppets: mindless soliders being controlled by someone who is smart enough to tell them what to do. And my favorite is the Resident Evil series... the video games and animated movies at least.

    Being a fan of the games one of the things that disappointed me about the movies was the lack of Bio-engineered "Monsters." The T-virus didn't just create zombies. Zombies were just a by-product of an outbreak. The virus mutated animals, plants, and even bugs and changed them into genetic monsters. In the movies we had a whole world taken over by the virus but all we see are zombies, humans, dogs, and crows. The only real monsters we see in the whole trilogy are Lickers and Nemesis and no I'm not counting the boss dude at the end of movie 3. That was just another form Nemesis had in the game.

He's overuse of slow-mo is annoying but that's only in his last 2 films.

    Every1 is entitled to their opinion but This was a bad review, intelligent zombies were attempted in extinction so umbrella obviously perfected it off screen. Her uniforms were their bcuz they were tryn 2 recruit her. Looking at the older movies their was STORY progression from finding out about umbrella origins to surviving/finding survivors to fighting wesker and now defeating the red queen. My only gripes was jills intercepting sub at the end and the stupid cagar beard guy death scene. The choreography and story/gun play also new monsters were badass overall a decent film. Funny how people/reviewers miss the little details of the stunts/hardwork. The deaf girl being taken could be the modified lickers results also it realized its struggling to kill alice baiting her, something obviously don't need explanation.
