Awesome!

Rating: 10/10 (1 September 2013)

Again, I love these movies! Milla Yovovich is back and better than ever, especially when the movie starts with multiple Milla Yovovich's in the character of Alice as clones of the real Alice.
Resident Evil: Afterlife tells the story of the last of the human population that remains after the undead takes over planet Earth. It's not a story of defeating the enemy, it is the story of surviving. Some survive longer than others.
Because this is the fourth movie of five, with a sixth one in the works, the fight scenes have to be more elaborate, the story has to be more involved, and the rest of the movie has to be action packed with little breathing room... and that's what we get in Resident Evil: Afterlife.
Alice is back and she has a few friends, at least at the beginning. Alice brings several clones with her to attack the base for Umbrella in China. They are successful in gaining entrance to the facility and killing at least a hundred or two of Umbrella's Chinese contingent, but their main objective is the chairman of Umbrella himself, Albert Wesker. Wesker, played by Shawn Roberts, escapes the facility, setting off a cleansing explosion to rid him of the Alice clones and hoping that Alice herself is among them. Unfortunately, or fortunately, whichever way you decide to see it, Alice lives. She attacks Wesker as he is trying to escape, but Wesker has a surprise. Wesker injects Alice with a serum that neutralizes the T-Virus and reverts Alice back to being JUST human. Alice thanks Wesker. The plane they are in crashes and we see only Alice has apparently survived. Of course this is my first favorite scene, but you knew that.
My second favorite scene is a short one. It's the scene where Alice and Claire Redfield (Ali Larter) are in the Yakovlev Yak-52, a Russian aircraft, and they are attempting to land on the roof of a prison in Los Angeles. They are successful, but just barely. Luther West (Boris Kodjoe) helps by running across the prison roof in time to jump up and grab the tail of the plane pulling it back down before the plane topples over the edge of the roof. Pretty good scene.
The third of my favorite scenes is when Alice and Chris Redfield, Claire's brother, go to the armory of the prison. To do this they have to swim down two floors and over several yards because the sump pumps need electricity to work and the electricity has been out for a long time. They are joined by Crystal, played by Kacey Barnfield, and make it through the water. Before they can get away from the water too far, Crystal is attacked and taken. Alice and Chris (Wentworth Miller) make it to the armory; Alice is impressed.
Since my second favorite is a short scene, I'll give a bonus favorite. My fourth favorite scene is the fight scene between Alice and Wesker, along with Claire, Chris, Bennett, and two infected dogs that Wesker seems to be able to control. Alice ends up knocking Bennett (Kim Coates) out and kills both dogs. One of the dogs is killed when Alice kicks a large piece of falling glass towards the dog who has jumped towards Alice. The glass impales the dog, killing it instantly. Alice then defeats Wesker, and leaves with Claire and Chris, leaving Bennett locked in the room with a seemingly defeated Wesker.
A short bonus favorite scene is when we see Jill Valentine (Sienna Guillory) for the first time since the second movie. However, she is only in the final scene of the movie. Jill is the commander of a strike force sent to the ship Arcadia to recapture all those on board, especially Alice.
I give this movie 10 stars out of 10. I loved it! I thought it was the best one yet. How could it get better? Read the next review on Resident Evil: Retribution to find out.
Oh, I forgot to mention the scene with the eight foot tall mutant. It takes place in the shower. At some point the mutant knocks some water pipes out and water is flying everywhere. This scene is awesome because Claire and Alice are now fighting the mutant in skin tight wet clothes. AWESOME! Hey, what can I say, I'm a guy. Get over it!
