Synopsis

Captured by the Umbrella Corp., Alice (Milla Jovovich) receives genetic alterations that leave her with superhuman abilities. Hiding out in the Nevada desert, she joins forces with former cohorts Carlos (Oded Fehr) and L.J. (Mike Epps) as well as new survivors Claire (Ali Larter), K-Mart (Spencer Locke) and Nurse Betty (Ashanti) to eradicate the virus that threatens to turn every human on Earth into a zombie.

Consensus

Resident Evil: Extinction is more of the same; its few impressive action sequences unable to compensate for the pedestrian plot.

245662 Brian Eggert Deep Focus Review Rotten 1/4 2024-03-08T04:07:37.000Z 2024-03-08 04:07:37 Resident Evil: Extinction has nothing zombie fans haven’t yet seen in better movies.
245663 Grant Watson Fiction Machine Fresh 6/10 2021-05-07T05:20:30.000Z 2021-05-07 05:20:30 It blends the zombie and post-apocalyptic genres in a reasonably interesting way, and benefits from Mulcahy's well-rehearsed filmmaking style.
245664 Mike Massie Gone With The Twins Rotten 2/10 2020-11-27T23:51:20.000Z 2020-11-27 23:51:20 Ridiculous, nonsensical, and grossly unnecessary.

245666 Shubhra Gupta The Indian Express Rotten 2019-05-22T00:52:38.000Z 2019-05-22 00:52:38 [Resident Evil: Extinction] looks as if it has been lifted from the same genre of films.
245667 Sebastian Zavala Kahn Más Gamers Rotten 2/4 2017-04-11T12:10:42.000Z 2017-04-11 12:10:42 Repetitive, violent, and with a very basic story, this film is a light and mediocre entertainment. [Full review in Spanish]
245668 Jeffrey Lyles Lyles' Movie Files Fresh 6/10 2012-09-13T08:35:48.000Z 2012-09-13 08:35:48 As far as this franchise goes, it looks like it's game over as the only thing extinct is the creativity.
245669 Charles Cassady Common Sense Media Rotten 2/5 2010-12-15T10:48:50.000Z 2010-12-15 10:48:50 Zombie sequel is just as grisly as the first two.
245670 Jeffrey Chen Window to the Movies Rotten 4/10 2010-09-30T14:39:53.000Z 2010-09-30 14:39:53 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.
245671 Steve Newton Georgia Straight Rotten 1/5 2010-07-06T19:42:49.000Z 2010-07-06 19:42:49 Director Russell Mulcahy is revered by genre fans for his work on the original Highlander, but he won't gain many followers outside Fangoria circles with this over-the-top splatter fest.
245672 Brett Michel Boston Phoenix Rotten 2.5/4 2010-07-06T19:42:48.000Z 2010-07-06 19:42:48 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.
245673 Fernando F. Croce CinePassion Fresh 2009-08-27T19:34:48.000Z 2009-08-27 19:34:48 Groovy bit of multiplex pandemonium

245675 Steve Biodrowski ESplatter Rotten 2008-07-12T17:00:14.000Z 2008-07-12 17:00:14 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.
245676 Dragan Antulov Index.hr Rotten 6/10 2008-04-10T03:58:10.000Z 2008-04-10 03:58:10 najve%u0107i adut filma je, kao i uvijek, Milla Jovovich
245677 Pablo Villaça Cinema em Cena Rotten 2/5 2008-01-16T14:01:05.000Z 2008-01-16 14:01:05 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.".
245678 Garth Franklin Dark Horizons Fresh 2008-01-15T03:15:31.000Z 2008-01-15 03:15:31 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.
245679 Scott Weinberg FEARnet Fresh 3/5 2008-01-02T09:34:31.000Z 2008-01-02 09:34:31 Fun, forgettable stuff -- but also a (slightly) better film than the reviews would have you believe.
245680 Prairie Miller NewsBlaze Rotten 2007-12-21T08:03:35.000Z 2007-12-21 08:03:35 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.
245681 Nick Schager Lessons of Darkness Rotten C 2007-10-30T06:20:56.000Z 2007-10-30 06:20:56 A Western-tinged adventure whose innovations are so scant that the only things keeping the enterprise afloat are clumsy references to its predecessors.
245682 Cynthia Fuchs PopMatters Rotten 2007-10-19T18:54:34.000Z 2007-10-19 18:54:34 The Alice you care about most, the one who kills zombies with splits and panache (and machetes) is actually not on Isaacs' monitor and is not dead yet.
245683 Kevin A. Ranson MovieCrypt.com Rotten 1.4/4.0 2007-10-16T12:54:22.000Z 2007-10-16 12:54:22 Alice is back. She remembers everything, mostly because we've seen it all before.
245684 Derek Malcolm London Evening Standard Rotten 2/5 2007-10-12T05:38:34.000Z 2007-10-12 05:38:34 Russell Mulcahy of Highlander fame ensures that production values are strong even if logic is weak and the script sounds like it was written on the back of an envelope.
245685 Anthony Quinn Independent (UK) Rotten 2/5 2007-10-12T05:20:25.000Z 2007-10-12 05:20:25 One or two good action sequences keep boredom at bay for a while, but so little of it is fresh that extinction can't come too soon.
245686 Tim Robey Daily Telegraph (UK) Rotten 2007-10-12T04:29:35.000Z 2007-10-12 04:29:35 It's high time for "Resident Evil: Enough is Enough".
245687 Unknown Critic Daily Mirror (UK) Rotten 2007-10-12T03:43:57.000Z 2007-10-12 03:43:57 Those zombies are back on the march in the third instalment of the horror-action series that plays like a rip-off of George A Romero's Day Of The Dead, only with a much lower IQ.
245688 Phelim O'Neill Guardian Rotten 2/5 2007-10-12T03:19:25.000Z 2007-10-12 03:19:25 While it doesn't present anything that is in any way original, it's fast and fun enough not to outstay its welcome.
245689 James Christopher The Times (UK) Rotten 2/5 2007-10-12T02:29:08.000Z 2007-10-12 02:29:08 Milla Jovovich reprises her tough-girl-in-sexy-thigh-boots role, and the survivors travel in Mad Max conveys up and down desert highways in search of fuel.
245690 Matthew Turner ViewLondon Rotten 2/5 2007-10-11T03:15:27.000Z 2007-10-11 03:15:27 Resident Evil: Extinction does exactly what you'd expect from a threequel - it's not especially scary or witty but if you want hot chicks kicking zombie arse then it delivers enough action to keep the Friday night crowd happy.
245691 Matthew Leyland Total Film Rotten 2/5 2007-10-10T09:34:38.000Z 2007-10-10 09:34:38 Scaling dizzy heights of sheer averageness, the third in writer/ producer Paul WS Anderson's stillborn zombie saga is the best - or least worst - yet.
245692 Helen O'Hara Empire Magazine Rotten 2/5 2007-10-10T08:47:10.000Z 2007-10-10 08:47:10 Better than the silly second instalment and boasting an effectively creepy empty world setting, it's nevertheless scuppered by a lack of coherence.
245693 Nigel Floyd Time Out Rotten 2/6 2007-10-10T08:12:10.000Z 2007-10-10 08:12:10 The scariest visage is that of Alice, whose flawless, airbrushed complexion is either a throwback to Mulcahy's New Romantic pop promos or something dictated by Jovovich's L'Oréal contract.
245694 Frank Ochieng World Voice News Rotten 1.5/4 2007-10-09T13:33:42.000Z 2007-10-09 13:33:42 Extinction is basically a robotic and wretched screen-sized visual video game that never challenges or stimulates the audience's rush for genuine outrageous freakiness.
245695 Paul Arendt BBC.com Rotten 2/5 2007-10-09T03:15:23.000Z 2007-10-09 03:15:23 Director Russell Mulcahy, a veteran of sci-fi tat, knows well enough to keep his camera firmly focussed on the exploding heads, and of course, there's the semi-naked Milla. One for Saturday night DVD rental, really.
245697 Scott Nash Three Movie Buffs Rotten 2.5/4 2007-10-06T05:50:45.000Z 2007-10-06 05:50:45 There are some cheap thrills to be had, but nothing spectacular or even truly memorable happens.
245696 Marc Savlov Austin Chronicle Rotten 2/5 2007-10-06T05:50:45.000Z 2007-10-06 05:50:45 Almost all of it has to do with watching the occasionally nude Jovovich look absolutely smashing in duster and sidearms, but sometimes, let's face it, that's not enough.
245698 Urban Cinefile Critics Urban Cinefile Fresh 2007-10-06T00:05:34.000Z 2007-10-06 00:05:34 Aussie filmmaker Russell Mulcahy piles on the atmosphere to make up for lack of originality in the script or production design. He also knows which bones to throw zombie movie fans, who relish the methodology of destroying the slow moving freaks
245699 Jim Lane Sacramento News & Review Rotten 1/5 2007-10-05T10:24:19.000Z 2007-10-05 10:24:19 Having no beginning or middle, the story also has no end, just a set-up for Part Four.

245701 Tim Brayton Antagony & Ecstasy Rotten 3/10 2007-09-28T18:55:44.000Z 2007-09-28 18:55:44 It is neither as clamorous nor as trashy as the first two films.

245703 Eric Moro IGN Movies Rotten 2.5/5 2007-09-28T09:34:22.000Z 2007-09-28 09:34:22 The final chapter in the videogame franchise deviates too far from its roots to be saved.
245704 Timothy Knight Reel.com Rotten 1.5/4 2007-09-28T03:15:22.000Z 2007-09-28 03:15:22 No better or worse than its video game-derived predecessors, hack-for-hire Russell Mulcahy's tired schlockfest blatantly rips off other, infinitely better sci-fi chillers.
245705 M. K. Terrell Christian Science Monitor Rotten D 2007-09-27T16:13:45.000Z 2007-09-27 16:13:45 A mad scientist (Iain Glen), hired to domesticate the zombies with serum he derives from the blood of Alice or her clones, is actually breeding superzombies to no discernible purpose other than adding gore and mayhem.
245706 Karina Montgomery Cinerina Fresh 4/5 2007-09-26T19:46:01.000Z 2007-09-26 19:46:01 It's an unapologetically popcorn movie but it's done just how you like it, with some really special moments. Enjoy.
245707 Scott Brown Entertainment Weekly Rotten C- 2007-09-26T16:18:17.000Z 2007-09-26 16:18:17 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.
245708 Ken Hanke Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC) Rotten 1.5/5 2007-09-26T05:52:18.000Z 2007-09-26 05:52:18 Despite finding the prospect of legions of zombie crows appealing, the sad fact is that they're not very well done, and they're housed in a movie that's even worse.

245711 Daniel Eagan Film Journal International Fresh 2007-09-25T08:27:04.000Z 2007-09-25 08:27:04 A grimly efficient horror thriller that delivers exactly what the other two entries did: monsters, gore, and a heavily armed Milla Jovovich in boots and garters.
245712 Brian Webster Apollo Guide Rotten 62/100 2007-09-24T21:10:11.000Z 2007-09-24 21:10:11 Everything about this competently made but utterly hollow movie is exactly what you'd expect, even if you haven't seen either of its predecessors.

245714 Mark Ramsey MovieJuice! Rotten C 2007-09-24T13:28:18.000Z 2007-09-24 13:28:18 Milla Jovovich, an actress who vividly demonstrates what the world would look like if Miss Teen South Carolina was licensed to kill.

245721 Liz Braun Jam! Movies Rotten 1/5 2007-09-24T11:32:09.000Z 2007-09-24 11:32:09 There's no story, the dialogue will make you laugh out loud, the special effects are often cheesy, the acting is terrible and any scary bits are announced in advance through ham-handed movie making.
245722 Frank Scheck The Hollywood Reporter Fresh 2007-09-24T11:29:45.000Z 2007-09-24 11:29:45 Fast-paced and filled with brisk action sequences, the film should reasonably satisfy the devotees.
245723 Jason Anderson Globe and Mail Rotten 1/4 2007-09-24T11:25:03.000Z 2007-09-24 11:25:03 The third in the modestly successful franchise spawned by the ultraviolent video-game, Resident Evil: Extinction provides little in the way of satisfying explanations or, for that matter, satisfying anything.
245724 James Diers E! Online Rotten C 2007-09-24T11:20:46.000Z 2007-09-24 11:20:46 There isn't much to it beyond the usual gamer-friendly plotting, grisly fight scenes and highly advanced Halloween makeup.

245726 Erin Meister Boston Globe Rotten 1.5/4 2007-09-24T11:10:33.000Z 2007-09-24 11:10:33 It's all so much more fun when you're the one with the controller, telling the heroes what to do: Watching this stuff unfold onscreen is like sitting by while someone plays your video games without you.
245727 Matt Zoller Seitz New York Times Rotten 2/5 2007-09-24T03:15:25.000Z 2007-09-24 03:15:25 The third installment in the video-game-derived series of films is not exactly dull but never interesting either.

When she's in battle mode you have no choice but to just shut your mind off and go with it. It's a perfect time waster that won't challenge you
245731 MaryAnn Johanson Flick Filosopher Rotten 2007-09-23T16:43:24.000Z 2007-09-23 16:43:24 When postapocalypse movies like this one seem to be striving to advance the idea that the human race is too stupid to survive, why not just let us die already?

245736 Jason Zingale Bullz-Eye.com Rotten 1/5 2007-09-22T06:06:56.000Z 2007-09-22 06:06:56 This is far from the trilogy-topping finale it was meant to be, but at least there's some good to be made of this experience: it's the last Resident Evil film we'll ever have to sit through again.
245739 Pete Vonder Haar Film Threat Fresh 3/5 2007-09-22T00:19:34.000Z 2007-09-22 00:19:34 I could probably spend an entire weekend watching Milla twirl her kukris
245740 Brian Tallerico UGO Rotten 2007-09-21T15:39:20.000Z 2007-09-21 15:39:20 If there's a lesson to be learned from the third film, it's that these flicks need to be all pay-off.
245741 Vince Koehler Entertainment Spectrum Rotten 1/4 2007-09-21T13:37:59.000Z 2007-09-21 13:37:59 What happened to the old zombie films that could scare you with just a look, not with hundred watt sound?

245743 John Monaghan Detroit Free Press Rotten 2/4 2007-09-21T11:55:20.000Z 2007-09-21 11:55:20 More of the same game.
245744 Josh Larsen Sun Publications (Chicago, IL) Fresh 3/4 2007-09-21T11:52:06.000Z 2007-09-21 11:52:06 With clever lifts from "The Birds" and Cormac McCarthy's bleak "The Road," you have a rare movie that wasn't screened for critics yet is actually worth watching.
245745 Matt Weitz Dallas Morning News Rotten C- 2007-09-21T11:44:52.000Z 2007-09-21 11:44:52 The palette is post-apocalyptic America, with generous squeezes of every cinematic pigment from The Omega Man to Mad Max to Night of the Living Dead. Really, the lack of flying saucers ultimately becomes quite amazing.
245746 Kevin Carr Film School Rejects Rotten 2/5 2007-09-21T10:13:53.000Z 2007-09-21 10:13:53 Gorehounds and zombie freaks should enjoy the zombie scenes... But rotten zombie brains splattered into the camera lens does not always a good movie make.
245747 Edward Douglas ComingSoon.net Rotten 6/10 2007-09-21T09:59:56.000Z 2007-09-21 09:59:56 Not nearly as dumb as the previous movie, but still fairly dull despite a few impressive action sequences.
245748 Nell Minow Movie Mom Rotten C 2007-09-21T03:59:45.000Z 2007-09-21 03:59:45 True to its video game origins, the movie is basically one set-piece after another, all going something like this. Alice (sometimes another character) enters a new environment. It is quiet. Too quiet. Then something scary and gross happens.
245749 Peter Sobczynski eFilmCritic.com Rotten 2/5 2007-09-21T01:44:16.000Z 2007-09-21 01:44:16 Even those of you who enjoyed the first two films as much as I did are likely to walk away from this one feeling disappointed and ripped off.
245750 Brian Orndorf eFilmCritic.com Fresh B 2007-09-21T00:18:06.000Z 2007-09-21 00:18:06 Terrific B-level zombie havoc...surprisingly agile, annoyed, and joyously straight-to-the-point violent.

245751 Dave White Movies.com Rotten D+ 2007-09-21T00:00:00.000Z 2007-09-21 00:00:00 Just routine undeadliness that puts the "stink" in "extinction."

245754 Joshua Tyler CinemaBlend Fresh 3.5/5 2007-09-20T22:09:20.000Z 2007-09-20 22:09:20 There are moments when the film nearly has a sweet Road Warrior vibe going for it, or at least a little bit of Thunderdome.
245755 Willie Waffle WaffleMovies.com Rotten 2007-09-20T21:15:11.000Z 2007-09-20 21:15:11 .5/4 This movie is all about Jovovich slicing zombies in half with a machete. You're either into it or not.
245756 Dustin Putman TheFilmFile.com Rotten 2/4 2007-09-20T20:50:59.000Z 2007-09-20 20:50:59 The good news is that Resident Evil: Extinction is about twice as good as its predecessors. That's not saying much.
245757 Frank Swietek One Guy's Opinion Rotten F 2007-09-20T20:34:01.000Z 2007-09-20 20:34:01 Even more boring than it was the first couple of times...a cross between Mad Max and Day of the Dead, though markedly inferior to both.

245759 Rich Cline Shadows on the Wall Rotten 2/5 2007-09-20T02:02:09.000Z 2007-09-20 02:02:09 After the slightly more sophisticated part 2, this episode returns to the more preposterous style of the original.
245760 Nomad Dread Central Fresh 3/5 2007-09-19T17:15:32.000Z 2007-09-19 17:15:32 With almost non-stop action, above average effects and enough bloodshed to calm your inner horror freak, it can be said that Extinction, dropkicks Apocalypse upside the head.
