Resident Evil: Extinction plays like a flabby middle chapter, full of nerdy details but fraudulently short on the ruined Vegas-scape that ads have been promising.
If ever a movie was made for a quick in-and-out engagement at the multiplex, this is it.
Resident Evil: Extinction is no more interesting than watching someone else play with his Xbox.
The action is not so much bloody as bloody monotonous.
The story and characters are surprisingly engaging, with fight scenes and scares effectively placed between plot turns.
Fast-paced and filled with brisk action sequences, the film should reasonably satisfy the devotees.
Zombie sequel is just as grisly as the first two.
There doesn't seem to be much other point to Extinction, with its disposable story and its ever-more-conspicuous lack of any original ideas.
The latest installment in writer/producer Paul W.S. Anderson's Resident Evil series may have opened atop the box office, but hardcore gamers know where the real action is.
Groovy bit of multiplex pandemonium
Rips from as many movies as possible, and fails to even do that right.
I'm still unimpressed with this franchise, but they are laughing all the way to the bank. Gotta respect that.
The franchise is becoming almost as mindless as the zombies it portrays, lumbeirng on with only repetitive instinct, while all true vitality has long since passed away.

Extinction's helmer, Russell Mulcahy, never met a moving picture he couldn't Cuisinart into incoherence.
An occasional wide shot, of half-buried Las Vegas, say, hints at the postapocalyptic doom these movies have never quite achieved.
Falha até mesmo na tarefa de levar o público a se importar com seus personagens; não há uma única baixa entre os mocinhos que realmente faça o espectador sentir um nó na garganta ou simplesmente pensar "Que pena. Era uma boa pessoa.".
The action at times is pretty effective, from an attack by an infected flock of crows, to some brutal fighting in a sand-engulfed Las Vegas.
Fun, forgettable stuff -- but also a (slightly) better film than the reviews would have you believe.
Far from extinct, this flick proves there's still life in the old zombies yet.
It's visually appealing, has some great ideas, and broadly touches on some potentially interesting characters, but it just cashes all of it in in exchange for more fluff and mediocre horror mayhem...
Milla Jovovich does a female chauvinist dressed-to-kill biker babe, while dodging cannibalistic crows. Rarely has mass murder been so dull. Pass the smelling salts.

A Western-tinged adventure whose innovations are so scant that the only things keeping the enterprise afloat are clumsy references to its predecessors.
One of my vices is the Resident Evil series. For what they are they are fun!! Love em.

This is a much more adult and gorey affair which makes it a whole lot better, the action is fast and violent with plenty of head shots and it looks quite good too. The first was OK, the second was a poor computer game hash and now this has brought the series back on form. Its not really like the game anymore but its a
