WHERE?!. The movie doesn't even have a good soundtrack. It is garbage and any people should avoid to see this **** its a waste of time and money, doesnt even worth the megabits to see it online. This kind of movie for a franchise like resident evil (the games, not the movies) it should be a crime. This is the worse of all the movies, not even for resident evil franchise, but for all the bad movies out there.… Expand

My wife and I decided to see this and..... We have never seen a more unwatchable movie in our entire lives.

We have never seen a more unwatchable movie in our entire lives. I don't understand why directors choose to hide all the action behind shaky camerawork and shots that are way too tight during a fight scene. To top it off, if that wasn't bad enough, they had the bright idea of doing these speed-cuts back and forth during every action scene that were practically seizure inducing!

The other RE movies were always kind of a guilty pleasure as they were fun to watch, even if they were bad, but this one was nothing like the others. It was just plain bad with no redeeming qualities whatsoever! Paul W. S. Anderson should be thrown in jail for making such terrible directing choices.… Expand

This movie wasn't that great I think it was the worst film in the franchise. The commercials on tv showed the best parts but hid the rest of the terrible parts of the film.

Puke of a movie. This movie had just one single aim - to finish RE franchise. Honestly, I dont get it - why director did it - could he left the franchise without this end? Just to make something to put a dot? I dont get it.

IThe film felt lazy to me and ive only watched RE: Afterlife, maybe people with the detailed story background will appreciate this more. Ruby Rose is underused, she has even less screentime in here than in xXx: The return of Xander Cage. I counted 8 jump scares in the first 20 minutes and everytime they cranked up the volume to the max. CGI was mostly fine mixed with some really bad ones and 3D isnt great. 50% of the dialogue is them repeating what you literally just watched and the synchro is one of the worst ive heard.
The editor went full Michael J. Fox and copied the Taken 3 cuts, you barely can see a thing.
The few positive things about RE: The Final Chapter are the overall visual style, the dystopian setting, the design of some cretaures and a handful of fun Action moments… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Worst movie in the series. I'm a big fan of the games, and I mostly liked the films also even the weaker ones were OK. But this one is not making any sense, and the worst part that it's trying. There are many conradiction in the film. No explanation to the disappearance of many main character.. They made the f***ing team Avengers of the Resident Evil in the previous movie than BOOM there is only the Captain left in the next one, oh and somewhere joined her post apocalypic BFF who suddenly don't even give a f*** about she had a brother. Wesker lost his power. He had god mode on in previous movies and now a door kill him. WTF?! Even the story not fitting. The virus developer character changed the reason stayed the same sort of. Wesker was a bad guy than a good one and again bad. Explanaton the rescue was a trap, why not left Alice rot in the base or kill her in stasis. He gave back her powers we saw it, than he says he didn't.
If we don't count the technical mistakes, editing, cutting etc. it could be an OK film just not as a sequel to the series rather than a spin-off story or alternative reality where everything happend differently.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This movie was extremely poor, i actually liked the others in the series but this was so hard to watch, shaky camera's during every action scene, makes you wish they will just stand around and talk more plot destroying **** What on Earth was Paul W.S Anderson smoking when he wrote and directed this movie, i felt embarrassed for the people in the credits for putting their name to this piece of **** Apparently the whole story, the five sequels could have been avoided if Alice just dropped the vile of anti-virus outside in the air instead of trying to inject matt because apparently that's enough to cover the whole world and destroy the t-virus and all mutations. I still can't figure out why the last movies ending was completely skipped over, maybe because it would have actually been entertaining, not mentioned at all really, cornered outnumbered ready for the last stand, next movie Alice just wandering around walking in on a bunch of tv screens that the red queen takes over to give Alice the answers to everything so stupid right at the start.

The plot line i followed seem to suggested the umbrella corporation planned the outbreak to exterminate the entire population and to rebuild with their own people who are in cryosleep inside the hive. They pretty much already succeeded with only like a thousand or so people left on the planet yet they are still trying to stop Alice like it even mattered anymore. The movie conflicts with the previous plot lines in its own series for no good reason, complete lack of ideas maybe. The outbreak was an accident, they even tried to cover it up with bombing Raccoon City, it was in the previous movies. The creation of the t-virus was an accident created by Dr. Charles Ashford to cure his daughter of a disease, then in this movie it was created by Dr. James Marcus to cure his daughter from a different disease.
It's like they want to reboot their series because they don't like how they did it now.
Resident Evil needs a new writer and director.

This movie failed in the actions scenes where you don't see anything that's happening the plot was given away at the start wasn't surprised by the "plot twists" so many poor choices were made in this film, can't believe the same people made this.

It's good they called it the final chapter because they have finally killed the series.… Expand

Mit Resident Evil –Spieleverfilmungen sind nicht nur meist Mist, sondern auch derbe Kassenflops – bis auf Resident Evil. Die Actionreihe hat bisher fast eine Milliarde US-Dollar eingespielt – obwohl ein Teil schlechter als der andere ist. Mit Resident Evil – The Final Chapter endet das Anti-Epos nun. Dennoch – oder gerade deswegen – wagt Regisseur Paul W.S. Anderson keine Experimente: Die fade Story um Alice (Milla Jovovich), die eine menschenleere, dafür zombiereiche Postapokalypse auf der Suche nach dem ultimativen Antivirus durchstreift, verlinkt so gerade die ansprechend inszenierten, aber hochgradig unoriginellen Actionszenen. Die durchschnittlich bis miesen Akteure führen derweil Dialoge aus der Hölle, während Anderson noch mehr als sonst auf Resident Evil-Anspielungen verzichtet. Wer die Vorgänger jedoch mochte, wird vermutlich auch hier glücklich – denn der blitzschnell geschnittene Film hat Tempo wie Sau, den ein oder anderen Gore-Effekt sowie einen netten Twist am Ende. Film- und Resident Evil-Nerds aber machen einen großen Bogen um diesen High-End-Trash.… Expand

The 3d was nonexistent,the picture quality was grainy and out of focus much of the time.
They should think up a new name for 'shaky cam' to describe the action as well as it was beyond shaky.It was all filmed in closeup with shaky cam and cuts so fast it almost was subliminal.
You couldn't tell what was going on much of the time.
The plot and storyline were limited to the group's simple objective that really didn't make much sense and they just started with one big chase scene after another .
Every action set piece was the equivalent of most films' final action scenes with no character development in between.
Mila Jovovich gritted her teeth and just dutifully rasped her cliche ridden lame lines as did the other carboard cutout characters.
Alice was immediately in charge of her group and ordered them around like she was directing the movie on the fly herself. The film is really visually dark and on the whole gives the impression that it was 99 percent cgi and 1 percent real people so it can't have cost much to make.
A really sad non-effort here.… Expand

After the first minutes I simply wanted to leave the cinema. The movie starts with the jump scare. The screen start's shaking, we have cuts every 1-2 seconds, making it extremely difficult to figure out, what is actually happenning and the sound levels are just absurd. Unfortunatelly, that turns out to be the theme of all of the jump scares (and there is plenty of them), and most action scenes.
We have some glimpses of the story here and there, but nothing significant untill the end of the movie. Characters are extremly bland, and all the new ones simply serve as cannon fodder. Gore is all over the place, to the point where it looks more silly than scary or disguisting. To make everything worse, the movie ends with a scene, that suggests that we might get another sequel.

The Final Chapter isn't satisfying as the grand finale of the series, disappoints as the action movie and is simply inferior to the previous parts. Major disappointment.… Expand

This is definitely the worst of the bunch. Completely uninspired, lazy story, ridiculous action scenes, excessively shaky camera work (cameramen must've had far too many espressos), and its complete lack of character building ruined the film. Not to spoil anything but there's a scene with a specific character that completely ruined their otherwise perfect portrayal throughout the franchise. What a complete letdown. And it's a total shame because the last film ended in such a cool way but this one completely ignored that film and basically played a game of "let's tie up all the loose ends, even if it completely conflicts with everything we've shown the audience so far." Garbage movie, through and through.… Expand

But the films, oh my god, the films are pretty bad. I could go intoNow don’t get me wrong on this one. I love the video games, even the plot, which has kind of gotten a bit out of hand at this point is still somewhat enjoyable to me. But the films, oh my god, the films are pretty bad. I could go into detail about what is wrong with all of these films, but I really don’t have the time and I would have to devote a whole other document to it!!! Let’s just say, these films punish you for remembering anything and punish you for having any knowledge of the games. Paul Anderson has basically used these films as a excuse to show off his wife Milla Jovovich in the lead role, who is a complete ‘Mary Sue’ of a character, who can do no wrong and kicks ass without flinching! For goodness sake, I may say every time that there is no way these films can get worse, but somehow it always manages to be the case and this one is the worst to date. Put it this way, if this is not in my ‘Worst Films of 2017 list’ I will have to declare it as being a terrible year for cinema. Do you know how long it took me for this film to p… me off, 1 minute 30 seconds!!! I counted, within a minute and a half they managed to retcon almost half of the series. Half of what had been established was gone and replaced by something else. It’s like they can’t make up their minds what they want to do. I will give the other films credit that at least some of the action was decently shot, but man, the action in this film is almost impossible to see, it’s terribly made, the plot is more asinine than usual and has several signposted twists that make absolutely no sense and actually raise more questions than answers and despite the fact that this is labelled as the final chapter, there is really no finality to the film. Oh, and there’s a million plot holes that were so big the Titanic could fit in them. This is a mess of a movie series and this is the worst one to date. I can’t go into everything I hate about the film because I would have to spoil it rotten and some poor souls will be like me and actually want to see the film, so I had better leave it to them, but trust me, I am so glad this film series is over. Screw these movies and screw Paul W S Anderson. Not only did he manage to ruin the possibility of a good Alien versus Predator movie, but he also managed to screw over the Resident Evil series for six movies. I saw it in 2D, for the love of god, do not see this movie in 3D. Some of the scenes are too dark, I imagine it would be literally impossible to see if you are wearing 3D glasses.… Expand

On passe sur les pirouettes scénaristiques et les rebondissements à l'emporte-pièce (dès le début déjà !), on passe l'éponge volontiers sur le côté nanaresque (marque de la série, il est vrai) mais ce chapitre final n'est tout simplement pas regardable : c'est en effet filmé n'importe comment et pour donner une idée, il s'agit de la méthode Jason Burne version Greengrass appliquée à Resident Evil mais sans Matt Dacon.

Ainsi est-on éclaboussé de plans épileptiques, d'un montage saucissonné pur porc, d'une caméra à l'épaule, d'autres caméras atteintes de la maladie de Parkinson et d'un abus de zooms durant ce merdier épouvantable.

Thank goodness this franchise is over, one of the worst of all time and certainly a shockingly bad addition to the series. Heres to a reboot which actually cares about the source material.
