[SinfulWeeper]

Any update on this? I live in a small town and it will be at least 2 weeks before it gets here. is it worth theater, or shall I wait for DVD?

My work just cut my entire 8 hour shift today, so I think I'm going to see this. I'll report back.

I can't tell if this movie is going to be a bad sequel to a mediocre movie or possibly a decent zombie flick; anyone have more info/first had viewing of the movie?

saw it.. better than dragon wars

zombies cant climb the fence around the bad guy's compound, yet they can climb the iffel tower?

she runs straight for the bad guys tent. bad guys knows she's coming via cameras, but they stay in the tent, and dont draw their guns till 2 of them are killed?!

you know you turn into a zombie once you're bitten. but when one guys gets attacked and saved, they dont check and let him stay in the group!?

nope.. pg13. all the goblidy bits are covered up

 

[MegaVovaN]

I am going to watch it in few hours. It's not a movie like The Departed...it's a friggen action! Boom zombyez 4 lyfe.

 

[Fullmetal Chocobo]

My wife and I thought it was pretty good. Not great, not horriible. And JEDI, they explained why those zombies could climb the tower.

 

[latino666]

This movie was really good. Better then the first and way better then the second. Also it has the best pot smoking scene I had ever seen. With the ending it makes me want a 4th movie that shows Alice finish off Umbrella once and for all.

 

[RandomFool]

I liked the first one, right up until the ending was laughable and never saw the second one. I did buy the double pack of the first two a few weeks back. One of these days I'll get around to watching them.

 

[MegaVovaN]

I watched it, it was sweet - plenty of headshots there

 

[Flyback]

Zombie-like and apocalyptic movies demand at least one viewing. That's the least you can do for the genre.

 

[n7]

Was some pretty good action!

Saw it last night, though we got screwed over by not going early, so we were sitting right at the front.

Story/acting was bad of course, but that was expected.
Great action though, never get tired of seeing Mila kick ass (or use her new Matrix powers :Q).

And LOL @ the blatant "Another sequel" ending...why am i not surprised

 

[syzygy]

The direction was much improved this time around. Shockingly better. This dude had more than just a clue.

The acting, for the most part, was spot on. Story lame; one too many predictable 'shocks'; editing and pacing excellent.

Even though I'm going to see it regardless, yes it will suck. It's going to be another crummy Rush Hour 3. They made 2, did well on the first, did relatively well on the second. They're probably just throwing this crap out to see if morons will pay them to see it.

It's going to suck, but they're right. I'm going to pay to see it and leave disappointed.

I was totally right. It sucked.

 

[MmmSkyscraper]

Anyone expecting a cinematic masterpiece has issues.

I don't give a damn. For some reason, I love the previous 2 and I'm sure I'll love this one. Will definitely be seeing this.

Bingo.

=opinions only=

PRO'S:
-It's a good movie to just watch for the hell of it, and it kicks when you watch it in theaters.
-Cute chicks, hot if I must say.
-Return of Alice, the legendary hero (or Frog from Chrono Trigger? ;mutated).
-3D special effects.
-acting is 'fairly' decent, at least it retains the feel of the first two.
-first half of movie is worthwhile

CON'S:
-and the last half of the movie slows down 'cuz you already know Alice is going to win
-Alice is photoshopped, too much touch up on her face. She was fine upto two, but in three, it's like she's been computer generated.
-Treb. control is awfully loud, sound team put too much of the wrong frequency in through almost every scene. You will most likely leave the theaters somewhat deaf.
-Story line is too linear. Even though it's got the classic 'scary' moments parts, it's impossible not to know what's going to happen after Alice's true powers are evident and Umbrella fails to contain her through satelite technology.
-Ending sucks, find out at the end of the cliffs; last battle is way too short.
-...No Jill Valentine, which sucks to not have the faslely "long awaited" Nemesis character in the movie.
-No scene where team/Alice are fighting dirty tuxedo costumed zombies in casinos of Las Vegas; what a turn off~
-Not enough monster types in movie: (1) Zombies (2) Super Zombies which are still stupid (3) Dogs, ofcourse (4) Crows, which die way too fast anyway (5) Last boss: Omega Red-wanna be.
-Too many desert scenes; loses the touch and feel of city fighting to just sand plains 'n weapons.. like a boring cowboy VS monsters movie, little bit of advanced technology here and there, that's about it.
-You don't see the immediate world after movie 2, movie 3 just jumped all the way past the in-betweens and is rushed into an ugly desert world, a good way to lose money for what could of went in between the two films, part 2 and 3, (nemesis and extinction).

CLIFFS:

Alice goes through training. Only a sample, clone gets thrown out. Zombies surround camp.

World in ruins, only a handful of humans survive. Water and food are scarce. Sandstorms mark all of the western United States.

Real Alice explores the desert waste lands, fights a little bit, and we discover her telepathic mind powers.

Expedition survival team travels. Member of STAR onboard survival team. They get hit by crows that are infected while at a rest stop.

Alice shows up and uses her mind powers to destory infected birds.

Master doctor discovers location and selfishly uses Umbrella soldiers to cease real Alice while unleashing enhanced zombies on expedition survival team as distraction and experimentation.

Alice successfully scares Umbrella Corporation master doctor back to mini base camp. Obviously she follows them and wants the surviving humans to go to Alaska for shelter.

Problem: Alice tells them to go from Nevada to Alaska on a helicopter. So where are they going to refuel? Dead end for expedition survival team, Alice basically sends them to their deaths on a single helicopter trip. Stupid.

Anyway, Alice fights it out with the master doctor who overdoses himself with the antidote after being bitten from the experimented super zombies. Master doctor transforms into a self-regenerating Omega Red monster and fights it out with Alice - pathetically short battle.
-Sliced 'em up, psychic punched, gets thrown a few times and lasers cut up Omega Red and he dies.

A surviving Alice-clone helped the real Alice defeat Omega Red and then they talk to the other Umbrella Corp. leaders via telecom video who are in hidden bases around the world, "I'm coming after you, and I'm bringin' a few of my friends," in which the real Alice takes control of the Umbrella lab of Nevada, USA and begins cloning mass Alice's.

[Boztech]

It was highly disappointing for me.

4/10

 

[queenrobot]

After the disappointment of Resident Evil Apocalypse, I was apprehensive about this one. It was great.

 

[FP]

This movie lacked tense zombie scenes. I am not talking about zombie dogs or zombie crows but zombie zombies damnit!

 

[RaistlinZ]

Those zombie crows were pretty crazy.

I would have liked to see her use her new powers more in the final battle against the doctor. I also don't understand why they let that one dude stay in the group after he got attacked by the zombie chick. I would have shot that mofo in the head just as a safety precaution.

I would have also liked to see more of Milla's naked bod'. Too bad the movie was PG-13.

 

[jagec]

Maybe I should see this. I got a huge kick out of Doom...then again, I watched it with a group of friends, and we'd all done a bit of drinking. Best movie ever.

perv. it wasn't supposed to be a porn movie.

you remember in part 2 when the guy with golden guns drives down a street and sees a bunch of women zombies? I bet that turned you on, j/k
