Well, here we are – the last outing for Alice (Milla Jovovich) as she faces off against hordes of the undead and the top brass from Umbrella while the fate of the human race rests in her hands.

So we are nearing the end, but Alice (Milla Jovovich) has a few more scores to settle with Wesker who is still after her, for goodness knows what reason this week!
Retribution opens exactly as we left Alice and the survivors on the Arcadia. A not inconsiderable number of Umbrella forces are bearing down on them from above under the command of a brain-washed Jill Valentine (Sienna Guillory). After a pretty one-sided battle, Alice wakes up, as she so often does, in another Umbrella facility. But this time it is the big one! This is where Umbrella have done all their testing for the bioweapons, using clones and massive underground reconstructions of major world cities.

Alice is back, and she’s brought some friends.
(spoilers ahead!)
Following on pretty much from the end of Extinction, Alice has enlisted her clones in her continued mission to bring down Umbrella and finish off everyone’s favourite bad guy, Albert Wesker (Shawn Roberts). After coming in all guns blazing, as far as I can tell, our Alice is the only surviving Alice and, following a tussle with Wesker, loses her powers but leaves him for dead in the wreckage of his aircraft.

Here be spoilers – just in case….
So, here we go, round 3! This time we take up the story several years after the events of Resident Evil Apocalypse and the whole world is now either infected or struggling to survive against the horrors of the T-Virus. Alice is now alone, trying to avoid bring found, distancing herself from the survivors of Raccoon City to keep them safe as she is hunted by the Umbrella Corporation.

I remember looking forward to this film a lot while waiting for it’s release. Resident Evil was a phenomena on the Playstation 1 (yep, kids there was actually a PS1!) and I have a lot of fond memories of playing the game with my housemates at the time. A favourite was coming home one night after a late shift, knowing my mate was playing and bursting in through the open window (it was summer) while making Zombie noises. Oh how he laughed…
Something I have been meaning to do for a while is revisit the Resident Evil Movie franchise. Actually I have also been thinking about revisiting the game franchise, but that is a much bigger committment, so that might take a bit longer to get to.
