7/10
The fans will love it
28 January 2017
I'm a big fan of the Resident Evil's films, so I decided to see this movie but I was with low expectations because I didn't like the trailers and the idea of kill almost all the characters of the previous installments.

Resident Evil: The Final Chapter opens with Alice telling what happened in the last films and then we see a good action scene between the main character and a monster, in the ending of that scene, the red queen shows how to save the world.

Finally, we can see a perfect mix between action and horror, there are a LOT of good and thrilling action scenes, a lot of jump scares and some violence. RE Extinction was great in that too, but in my opinion Final Chapter does it better. I can say Alice is the worthy successor of any action character of the 80s films, she's like a daughter between John Rambo and the Terminator. The plot is good, has some intense scenes (the ventilation/blower scene is my favorite) and there are no boring moments, although we an find some little plot holes, the editing is a bit messy and neither the all good action sequences or can help us to forget the absence of the previous characters.

Good points: The epic action scenes; The scary moments; The ending is great;

Bad points: The zombies aren't charismatic or even scary. There are some plot holes; The editing could be better; The lack of some characters;

Final opinion: This new Resident Evil film is one of the best movies based in video games, but has some defects as the editing, some plot holes and the lack of characters such as Chris Redfield, Leon S. Kennedy, Jill Valentine and Ada Wong. However, we have a good story, epic action scenes, jump scares, some mystery and Milla Jovovich. Paul W.S. Anderson knows how to do a great ending.

Rate: 7.5/10
