Written & Directed Paul W.S. Anderson

Starring: Milla Jovovich, Sienna Guillory, and Michelle Rodriguez

Alice fights alongside a resistance movement in the continuing battle against the Umbrella Corporation and the undead.

Seriously? This is it? I wasn’t expecting The Usual Suspects or anything, but this piece of shit is bottom rung. 90 minutes of cool settings, fancy CG, and action scenes that lose their effectiveness due to the fact that they never stop.

I really don’t know what to say. I nearly fell asleep twice, only to be rocked back to reality from the explosions taking place three times a minute. I seriously pulled the ‘ol smartphone out to check the time – I was actually considering leaving until I realized there was only fifteen minutes left. If time isn’t valuable to you; then this might be entertaining to you. Paul, we can only watch so many gravity and physics defying action scenes for so long before the edge is dulled.

Terrible, lifeless acting, ridiculous “plot”, horrible script…need I go on? The only mildly entertaining thing Resident Evil: Retardation had to offer was the gorgeous Ada Wong.

I don’t even want to post the trailer, because fuck this movie, but *sigh* here it is.
