Author Topic: RESIDENT EVIL: AFTERLIFE 2010 Claude S. Ayakawa Film God Posts: 2738 From: Waipahu, Hawaii, USA Registered: Aug 2002 posted 09-13-2010 10:37 PM                        I have not seen RESIDENT EVIL:AFTERLIFE and would like to know if the movie and the 3-D is good before I consider seeing it. The movie was the highest grossing film during it's opening weekend but I am puzzled no one here has posted a review yet. -Claude  |  IP: Logged Kurt Zupin Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 989 From: Maricopa, Arizona Registered: Oct 2004 posted 09-13-2010 11:56 PM                     In short I found this to be the most boring of the RE films so far. The movies about Zombies! Would help if there were some Zombies in this one. Sure they are there for about all of 10 minutes, but its a movie franchise based on surviving and killing Zombies. Everything was dull and lifeless. Characters were not good, the new additions were there for no reason other then to introduce Chris Redfield who is a huge part of the Universe and is regulated to being pretty much worthless. The 3D is ok, but it really is nothing special at all. 1.5/5  |  IP: Logged Kyle Butler Film Handler Posts: 47 From: Belton, TX Registered: Jan 2010 posted 09-14-2010 02:29 AM                     Easily the most pointless sequel i've ever had the displeasure to watch. The concept of the Resident evil series is great, but they don't do anything with it. I don't want to spoil anything in case you decide to see it, but you'll know exactly what im talking about if you do. The whole film could have been done in less than 15 minutes, but for some reason was made into a full feature film. -_- And the 3-D wasn't impressive at all. I honestly feel like I've seen conversions that had more depth. Just a good example of how off and on 3D can be, even with good cameras! 1.5/5  |  IP: Logged Jonathan Goeldner Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1360 From: Washington, District of Columbia Registered: Jun 2008 posted 10-13-2010 10:07 PM                     I actually didn't mind this entry in the Resident Evil films - I thought though "2" sucked donkeyballs and the worst in my opinion. I thought the 3D worked to good effect, but the IMAX-Digital glasses produced alot of glare and as a result was extremely distracting.

Afterlife is the stand out (no pun intended) in the series for me the action scenes were pretty slick and I loved the Axe Man sequence. 2 3/4 out of 5  |  IP: Logged
