The Afterlife Begins With a Bang

Rating: 8/10 (10 September 2010)

I recently got a chance to watch Resident Evil: Afterlife with a couple of friends at a local theatre. The first three movies didn't give me that much to expect for the fourth installment, either way, I was very excited. I came out completely blown away. It was high octane thrilling action at its best.
Some movies (e.g. Airbender) used the magic of 3D to great waste. But to tell you, Resident Evil 4 was absolutely amazing in 3D and surround sound. Never before had I got to witness Milla Jovovich blowing zombies away in 3D. It was a whole new experience and the first of its genre to be in 3D. I thought it was used amazingly.
There were many jump scares which I didn't mind, the 4 mouthed zombie's looked awesome and the normal zombie's look also very freaky in 3D as well as the Axeman whose feet shaked the very floor of the theater. But the best scene for me was definitely the final battle with Wesker, complete with suspenseful rock music accompanied in which accompanied the epic battle. We've been waiting for almost 3 movies to see his head blown out into bits by Jovovich. I'll leave you to see yourself if he makes it out alive.
Overall it was a great movie, not for kids, so do yourself a wonderful favour, run to your local theater and buy yourself a ticket for Resident Evil: Afterlife in 3D.
P.S. Stay a few minutes into the credits. Video game fans wont be disappointed
