The real mystery behind the Umbrella Corporation: "How can the Resident Evil franchise never die!?"
Clearly zombie franchises are just as hard to kill as their subject matter!
Resident Evil: Retribution is the FIFTH instalment in this series, which has given us Resident Evil (duh), then Resident Evil: Apocalypse (which would hint at the end of the world, if not the franchise at least), which begat Resident Evil: Extinction (surely the end with a name like that no?)...
Then they got trickier with the naming convention, as they brought this franchise back from the dead with Resident Evil: Afterlife.
So how was it? Well Milla Jovovich is still sexy... But I left the theatre in a stupor from what I had experienced. I'm sure they saved a lot of money by not hiring a writer for this one.
The basic experience was akin to watching someone play a videogame. Except videogames generally have a little more plot -- buuuut with the same wooden acting.
