It may be OK, if not counting the rip-offs

Rating: 4/10 (12 October 2010)

Among the recent horror titles, Resident Evil: Afterlife maybe an entertaining film. It is fast paced and action packed, and it does provide some enjoyment if you let your brain stop working for an hour and a half.
Plot holes are everywhere. Why is everybody suddenly possess all kinds of superhuman abilities like jumping over a meter high, sliding everywhere, while they are not supposed to, except to pay homage to the video game RE4 and RE5 which normal human having superior power. The homages to RE4 and RE5 may also make watchers who are not fans feel absurd since many things are left unexplained, such as what is that giant monster exactly?
But what vexes me most is the rip-offs, which are everywhere. Come on are you serious? The opening scenes are from the Matrix. The landing scene is from Escape from New York. Signs on the roof? Thats from Dawn of the Dead remake! Jumping off the roof? Die Hard of course.
Afterall, if you just want some mind-numbing B-movie, give it a try.
