It was alright, about on par with the last two RE movies. It was nice to see characters from the game, even if they were canon fodder.
Milla, Paul and Boris are recording commentary tracks for Retribution AND Afterlife today. Milla tweeted about it and posted this https://t.co/fPtEEkPy
So if seems like Afterlife may be getting released on dvd/bluray again. So now we potentially have two extended cuts of that last two movies to look forward to.
The cast commentary for the first movie is so fun
I've got that movie on DVD I'll have to check out the cast commentary, lol.
This has been mentioned I am sure but what would be great would be a Resident Evil movie based on the first one and instead of an action movie...make it more like a Thriller/Drama. The last Resident Evil did nothing for me (the 3D effects were cool I guess) but these movies are for kids.
The first film i thought was pretty awsome.
it had atmosphere, suspense,horror. There was isolation, bleakness and little hope. Ordinary people, ordinary soldiers in an extraordinary situation.
It was great. I didnt mind that it wasnt like the games because it claimed to be nothing like the games, it didnt say 'this is arklay, this is chris, this is jill, this is barry, this is rebecca' and so on.
Apocalypse ruined it. It went from a suspenseful horror/thriller to an action adventure which was just pure lame. They started throwing in videogame characters in, ruining it and destroying the characters whilst making Alice into a demi god, then went all sci-fi clone shiz and stuff.
So frustrating. I still enjoy watching the original RE film. It was great, Marilyn Mansons score (seizure of power, main theme,cleansing and reunion; all awsome)
You have described my exact thoughts of how I view the movie franchise
After everything Fermando wrote, you could change first movie to first games, and then you would pretty much have the exact same thing with the game franchise. Going by RE5+6 theres more action in the games and the characters are less like they were in the originals than the live action movies depict them!
