 The best of the 3 August 31, 2008
Extinction is best Resident Evil film, better in everyway, better acting, better gore and better looking zombies. Although there is no references to the games in this one (unlike apocalypse which was based on Resident Evil 3 Nemesis for the PS1), extinction is better than the first one and apocalypse put together.
LOADS OF BIRDS SHAME THAY HAD FEATHERS!!!! August 11, 2008
This is the best by far of the three so far the action and gore is from the word go. The story moved along at a nice pace and the special effects were outstanding the scene when the birds attack the base camp was very good. Overall this is well worth a watch and there is pleny of kick ass zombie action with a big selection of guns!!!

The best of the Resident Evil movies, this film has plenty of top action and a good amount of salivating zombies getting creatively hacked up. Milla Jovovitch is lethal and gorgeous by turns, and knows more about decimating the undead than any other screen star of recent memory. Good stuff, strongly recommended.
wasnt expecting much after apocalpyse....... June 1, 2008

and i got what i expected, the story vaguely picks up onto the end of the apocalpse, and the opening of this film, uses scenes from the first film to very good effect, and i have to say was one of the best bits of the whole film. After that though, sadly it goes down hill, the story kinda bolted onto the end of the existing films, by a 2 mins cgi globe and alice talking about how the t-virus has wiped almost everyone out. It joins alice on the road going to help some survivors, and lets just say thier game backfires.
The film also focuses on some of the people you will know from the second film, (although not jill valentine surprisngly) who have to hit the road and are searching for survivors as well as a safe haven, this is led by claire redfield, (yet another resident evil character used completely out of context) and the film goes on, with the survivors getting attacked by all means beasties (and crows) but the film just kind of plods along in its hopelessly predictable and zombie killing ways.
UNTILL....
things get all too wierd and a bit tooo matrix'y with alice. Most of the film progresses on like this and only seems to return when a) they get to las vegas, although even that bit is slightly ruined by the intervention of umbrella, but it still makes for fun action packed viewing, and the final series of events when alice goes on the hunt in an underground research lab. This scence is brilliant and is really what all the resident evil film series shouldve been like, and the evil beasty in this film is brilliant, and brings back the scary unbeatable monster type events from the games, unfortunately this AGAIN is ruined by more matrixyness, this is meant to be resident evil not a showcase of mind trickery, and the end well i personally didnt like it, but it does tie in several themes that have linked the films together.
Saying that it still has a bit of a cliff hanger ending with the survivors, and i dont know, but it does sound a bit similar to what happens in resident evil code veronica x, but i may be wrong!
The cgi is good, the ending is not my cup of tea, it has a couple of gems in it but sadly this has neither the storyline or the tense horror sequences to rise it up from being 'just another zombie flick'
good addition to the 'Evil' series!! April 22, 2008

I genuinely liked the first of the Resident Evil films - Mila Jojavich does a good action heroine - but after being slightly disappointed by the second, I have left this one for a while before watching it.
Although it doesn't have the strong story of the first, It can hold its own as a stand alone effort. The action is pretty much constant, and there are plenty of well choreographed fight scenes.
I think this is a worthy addition to the series, much improved on the second, mainly because the supporting cast are more likeable, but also because less time has been spent trying to over complicate the plot with strange genetic mutations for Alice to deal with!
I would recommend this to fans of R E ,don't be put off by the second, or the extremely short cinema release time this one got - it has definately been sold short!!
Worth watching, especially for some spectacular Zombie killing!!!
