A little bit above the line of mediocrity.

Rating: 7/10 (1 January 2008)

Resident evil 3 starts out mediocre, and from that standpoint I was expecting a good an hour and a half. Sure there was more action and more credible plot than the first two.....but not enough of the action
A fairly interesting storyline.....At least interesting enough to keep my attention. But frankly I was expecting way more violence. Don't misconstrue me here. I did not hate this movie. it's just that I was expecting more and what I got was average.
Although this film is not an impressive action film, it had some interesting aspects. To start with it was filled with a brilliant cast. The acting was vital and it has serious actors suitable for their roles. Also the special effects were amazing. Whoever did the makeup for the zombies should be proud.
The other thing I liked was the linkage of all the scenes to one another, nowadays movies are made(such as "The Grudge" franchise) in such a way where you need to rewind and fast forward in order to grasp the purpose of the scenes. in the contrary in "Resident Evil:Extinction" the sequences were highly comprehensible from the very beginning to the end. The scenes weren't filled with junk dialogues.
I have said these positive things about this movie. Yet as overrated as it was I was expecting a mind blowing action and a remarkable film that leaves me with nothing to say but "WOW". For a third movie in the franchise, extinction is not bad at all. However it doesn't surpass the hype.
