Unbearable

Rating: 2/10 (14 November 2010)

I'm kinda into Mila thanks to her movie debut with Bruce Willis and I kinda enjoy the Resident Evil general concept. With those two thoughts in mind I settled in for this title. What I was hoping for was a decent production. Boy, was I wrong.
It's just... plain dumb an poorly executed. I really, really tried to enjoy this movie as I was watching it with my fiancée who likes the series. And this one left both of us with a bad taste in our mouth.
The action scenes are inconsequent both in quality and pace, they lack flair or finesse. I find it insulting when every possible scene of the film is easily predictable (just as the final outcome).
What is more - this part of the Resident Evil universe seemed to me as a prequel, not a sequel. The ending firmly established the plot for another production and does it in a way, which I find embarrassing.
I could try to write about the plot, but it would just end in me smacking each and every part of it with a big hammer. Alongside with bashing Wentworth Miller for absolute lack of any acting skill, as he seemed to me to be Michael Scofield pasted into this universe. Well... with shooting added.
There are no twists (well, for anybody above age 6), humor is non-existent and the actions scenes are surreal in their dumbness, poorly directed and simply boring.
To be honest, Resident Evil: Afterlife is a movie worth missing.
The one and only good part of the movie is the main actress herself. I find Mila a very beautiful (in a unique and intriguing way) woman.
And I suggest watching "The Fifth Element" to experience that. It will be fun, exactly the opposite to Resident Evil: Afterlife.
