Never thought Post-Apocalyptic Horror with Zombie Birds would be this decent

Rating: 8/10 (16 September 2009)

Oh yes, I enjoyed "Resident Evil: Extinction" quite a bit. I liked the first one, nothing wrong with it really. I was a little bit disappointed with how the second one turned out, on some levels. But this third one really felt to me like it put the whole concept and storyline back on the rails again. As far as that goes, the post-apocalyptic setting - and me being a sucker for it - had even little to do with it. But in general, yes, it did grab a hold of me. For such a setting, it totally had the right look & feel, just like it should. The zombie crows were undeniably cool, whether you liked them or not. A bit sad they only had them featured in one action scene. What I did like about the previous film, was the hint at the ending regarding Milla's character developing telekinetic abilities. I was really satisfied to see a bit more of them in this film. I'm granting "Extinction" a whole extra point for the sole reason it managed to entertain me the most out of all three films so far. Unexpectedly, this turned out my favorite so far. Not bad, for a third film. And for once, I don't mind seeing a horror franchise go on, as I have some hopes now for 2010's "Afterlife" installment. And I fear the day they'll write Milla Jovovich out of the series. I hope they'll call it quits before that ever happens.
