Middle of the pack fourth franchise installment

Rating: 5/10 (29 January 2017)

The fourth installment of the Resident Evil franchise takes Alice (Milla Jovovich) across the Pacific to Japan and what is believed to be the last Umbrella corp. underground lair. We soon learn that Alice is not alone but taking on the underground lair with help of all of her clones toting samurai swords and ninja stars. She takes out this group but loses several of herself in the process. She is also injected with a weird serum that reduces all of her superpowers making her a normal human again.
After stopping in Tokyo, Alice flies back to Alaska in search of her friends. She doesn't find a haven but is reunited with Claire (Ali Larter) who has no memory of what happened. They fly back down the West coast where they meet a group of survivors holed up in a prison. This group includes Bennett (Kim Coates), Luther (Boris Kodjoe), and the imprisoned Chris Redfield (Wentworth Miller). This group ekes out survival but when a new mutated form of zombie with a split open tongue burrow through the walls, the team has to escape. A giant monster with a hammer also starts knocking on the gate hurrying the evacuation.
