Resident Evil: Afterlife [Blu-ray 3D] [3D Blu-ray]

Description

The fourth installment of the hugely successful Resident
Evil franchise, Resident Evil: Afterlife is again based on the wildly popular
video game series, and will this time be presented in 3-D. In a world ravaged
by a virus infection, turning its victims into the Undead, Alice (Milla
Jovovich), continues on her journey to find survivors and lead them to safety.
Her deadly battle with the Umbrella Corporation reaches new heights, but Alice
gets some unexpected help from an old friend. A new lead that promises a safe
haven from the Undead takes them to Los Angeles, but when they arrive the city
is overrun by thousands of Undead – and Alice and her comrades are about to
step into a deadly trap. A barrage of 3-D effects enlivens Paul
W.S. Anderson’s Resident Evil: Afterlife, the fourth entry in the seemingly
endless action-science fiction horror franchise based on the popular Capcom
video game series. Plot, dialogue, and character development all remain
secondary considerations; what’s key here are the set pieces that allow Milla
Jovovich to unleash maximum damage to virally infected zombies, villainous
henchmen, and just about anyone else who stands in the way of her stopping the
shadowy Umbrella Corporation. Jovovich retains the blend of grit and
pulchritude that have made her a fanboy favorite (though said viewers may
decry the film’s bit of shower-scene interruptus), and she’s well supported by
returning cast members Ali Larter and Boris Kodjoe (Undercovers) and Prison
Break’s Wentworth Miller, who, as Claire’s brother, is back behind bars in a
postapocalyptic jail overrun by plague zombies. And the 3-D effects are
impressive and give a shot of adrenaline to the already hyper-driven action
and CGI elements. Those looking for more than what the Resident Evil franchise
is designed to provide–souped-up, B-movie thrills–are advised to lower their
expectations; franchise devotees should be pleased, especially by the film’s
final scene, which (naturally) sets up another sequel. –Paul Gaita
