"Resident Evil: Extinction" is so crappy, it even makes "Resident Evil: Apocalypse" look like a masterpiece.

This movies vies with "Starship Troopers" as quite possibly the worst movie ever made. Really. Nothing in this movie was well done, by anyone.

Contrary to the narration that explains Earth's current state, black crows(and photogenic women) were able to survive the nuclear blast that ended life as people and animals alike knew it. "Resident Evil: Extinction" already has Contrary to the narration that explains Earth's current state, black crows(and photogenic women) were able to survive the nuclear blast that ended life as people and animals alike knew it. "Resident Evil: Extinction" already has zombies, but they spend most of their time clamoring to invade a millitary complex. The zombies mostly just stand around in an agitated state of zombie-ness. When the undead do attack, they all emerge from the same container. If one of the pretty people had a grenade, that preemptive strike would've negated the ensuing battle. Out of desperation, the pretty people are also attacked by computer-generated undead crows. Those crows had a better strategy than the zombies. "Resident Evil: Extinction" is bad at sci-fi, bad at action, and bad at zombies. It also makes you feel bad for Milla Jovovich, who deserves a shot at a role that requires her to act.… Expand

It was like watching an even less funny version of epic movie. Trying to identify the blatant rip offs of Mad Max, Day of the Dead, the Birds, Aliens and Tomb Raider was the only thing that helped my mind stay focused.

This is, by FAR, the worst of the series. A crappy beginning, a stupid zombie crow scene, and a terrible fight with "aggressive" Zombies in the ruins of Las vegas are the highlights of this film.

A crappy beginning, a stupid zombie crow scene, and a terrible fight with "aggressive" Zombies in the ruins of Las vegas are the highlights of this film. The scene where they're trying to "domesticate" the zombie in the interrogation-style room was so terrible, I actually either fast-forward through it, or switch the TV input and watch something else for 5 minutes. And that ending...WTF? I'm coming for you guys...with 500 clones of me...you'll recognize me though, I'll be wearing my Queen of the Clones crown! Topped off by how stupid the zombies look and how the T-Virus can magically turn the entire planet into a barren wasteland. I loved the first RE, I loved the second RE even more. Now, thanks to this, I probably won't see the fourth.… Expand

One of the worst movie's I've seen in a long time. One of those you just start laughing at the lines cause there so bad and not something someone would say in that situation. It was just shoot em up, go to the next level/room do it One of the worst movie's I've seen in a long time. One of those you just start laughing at the lines cause there so bad and not something someone would say in that situation. It was just shoot em up, go to the next level/room do it again(very boring approach). Couldn't wait for it be over, I didn't care who lived or died, there was no involvement in the characters. It felt so far from the first RE. And the ending was a huge scare cause it looked like they may try to make another one. At least it couldn't be worse. Prob just jinxed it! She should of wore skimpier clothing if they were going to fail at every other aspect of the film.… Expand

Resident Evil films have NOTHING to do with the plotlines or characters from the games, which actually have some substance and intrigue. How they ever managed to finance no 2, let alone 3, is beyond me.

The first 2 resident evil movies weren't good. This one was plain terrible. Seriously, zombies that can climb the Eiffel tower (a replica, I know) but can't break down or climb over a CHAIN LINK FENCE? Are you kidding me?

The zombies look ridiculous, The plot is awful, it has almost no relevance to the actual games WHATSOEVER. I watched it days ago and I still can't believe how bad it is. Some of the concepts are just stupid, like a virus turning large areas (like the WHOLE UNITED STATES) into a desert, or zombie that can barely walk in one scene, but are climbing replica Eiffel towers in the next. Oh yeah, and Alice's Matrix powers (do you remember Alice from the games? I sure don't). Don't forget the scene where they are shooting at 10,000 birds with handguns. It could be nitpicking, but the film deserves it. Worst one in the trilogy, The makers should be whipped for making this piece of ####, Nuff said, SEE YA.… Expand

Well, this was easily the worst one of the 3. Even though the other 2 did suck. Paul Anderson needs to learn how to write a proper script with a decent storyline and that has some material which relates to the game in some way. Avoid this one

Resident Evil: Extinction is a pretty shabby film, but a damn sight better than its predecessor, Apocalypse (though this isn't saying much - contracting leprosy is preferable to watching Apocalypse). The storyline is a dumb as ever, theResident Evil: Extinction is a pretty shabby film, but a damn sight better than its predecessor, Apocalypse (though this isn't saying much - contracting leprosy is preferable to watching Apocalypse). The storyline is a dumb as ever, the characters and script dull and clunky. Giving main protagonist Alice (Milla Jovovich) destructive telekinetic powers was also a mistake - making her such an unstoppable force of nature certainly limits our ability to empathise with her. The cast's performances in general are unremarkable, but at least they actually look like professional actors this time round rather than the highschool drama club-quality performances in Apocalypse. The blatant rip-off of The Birds (though the filmmakers will probably claim that it's a loving tribute) where zombie crows attack is also a new low for the series. What Extinction does have going for it is some pretty entertaining action sequences, creative and brutal zombie kills, and Milla Jovovich wielding a pair of very big knives. Russell Mulcahy (of highlander fame) is also probably the most talented director who's worked on the Resident Evil series thus far - his direction is perfectly competent, with the odd pleasing flourish. Resident Evil: Extinction is a mildly diverting post-apocalyptic film with zombies, action and simplistic, good-looking characters. Should you expect any more from a film like this? Probably not. Does it deliver any more than this? No.… Expand

I hated about every second of it nothing can save it, it was one bad mistake after another from that dumb zombie crow fight to having Alice have mind control powers. Overall this movie was a **** mess don’t watch it your better off watching the first games cutscenes.… Expand
