Resident Evil Afterlife (2010)

In 7 words or less: Alice fights zoms in desolate future...yawn

What's it all About? Word of a safe haven has meant survivors are seeking out 'Arkadia' in search of protection, food and shelter. 

Run Alice, run
Best bits? An ok fight scene with a brute berserker in the showers is perhaps the highlight of a lacklustre 'noon-evil' film with no scares.

Can I 'axe' you a question?
Did it make you think thoughts? At the start of the film why is Alice is Japan? How did she survive the totally brutal plane crash? Where does her constant supply of lipstick come from? I had these thoughts among others. Chief video game protagonist, Albert Wesker, is back and in full on game mode. Mutating, not dying, quipping, not dying again, you know the drill. It's a more unbelievable film than the rest (not that they were realistic in any way) and shows that the franchise is really starting to flag. 

Opticians appointment for Mr Wesker
Would you watch it again? Probably not

Rating (out of 100%): Jovovich is good as always but isn't given much to work with. I give Afterlife a 'please don't come back for more...whoops you have done' 35%
