Last
night went with the flatmates to see RE: Afterlife, oh lets get this correct
Resident Evil: Afterlife 3D!!!! my verdict...Utter Rubbish...there review
done.........
Ok I'll
do it properly.....my main problem with this film is the story...it has none
and it's so predictable. At one point I thought I was watching a travel
programme and expecting a over voice to go "if you decide to splash out on
a airplane flight you will see breathtaking views" rolls eyes, and then
came my biggest problem with the film Bloody Matrix stunts, hate it. Ok when
the Matrix came out it was refreshing and then came all those Hollywood films
and every scene had a Matrix slow motion fight scene and then thank god it sort
of died down, BUT NO in RE: Afterlife it's back and evey scene it's slow motion
matrix clone fighting. I sat there going "I'm really bored now, is this
Resident Evil or am'I watching a Matrix remake with zombies", It just made
the film seem soooo slow and unintresting.
As for the umbrella villain black
outfit with black shades and slick back hair.....how original, I got told
that's how he looked in the series but his mannerisms and even the way he moved
and even smirked was exactly like the Matrix's Agent Smith. I thought they
would be more creative, although I did enjoy the bad ass big dude from RE 5,
but alas that ended with me going "what the........" He get's shot
god knows how many times and still walks get's blasted by Alice's shotgun and
keeps moving, I was like hell yeah, and then suddenly when Alice fires the gun
it dies so easily, even though the gun was fired before by Claire and it
floored him but he still got up to kick ass......cliche!!!.
As for the 3D what
3D!!!! it was just put there to make the film more expensive for us the movie
goers, seeing the ridiculous prices we have to pay for a 3D film. They say by
doing it it cracks down on piracy...no it doesn't cos I've seen a bright spark
put 3D glasses over the camera's lens and film the film perfectly, so thier
argument is flawed!!! it a quick way to rip off the movie fans, using below
standard 3D effect which are very few or far between and looked really
amateurish and cheap. At one point I took my 3D glasses of to see if the film
was actually in 3D it was but you could watch it with out the 3d glasses cos
they did nothing to enhance the 3D experience, and if they were going for the
Avatar route they failed on a epic scale.
The
ending was so predictable and had me rolling my eyes, as if we didn't see that
was going to happen. The Resident Evil fans may love this film and that's their
point of view and I respect that, but for me I felt it was just a pointless
cash in on a series that should of died out years ago...as it brings nothing
new to the series and makes it look tired and dated. Please stop making every
film in 3D, no wonder piracy is increasing who want's to pay the rip off prices
to see a crap film??
There
done so until next time.......enjoy and at the end of the day it's only a
movie...which ripped me off..grumble grumble
