Overview

The Umbrella Corporation’s deadly T-virus continues to ravage the Earth, transforming the global population into legions of the flesh eating Undead. The human race’s last and only hope, Alice, awakens in the heart of Umbrella’s most clandestine operations facility and unveils more of her mysterious past as she delves further into the complex. Without a safe haven, Alice continues to hunt those responsible for the outbreak; a chase that takes her from Tokyo to New York, Washington, D.C. and Moscow, culminating in a mind-blowing revelation that will force her to rethink everything that she once thought to be true. Aided by new found allies and familiar friends, Alice must fight to survive long enough to escape a hostile world on the brink of oblivion. The countdown has begun.

The script is incoherent and the acting is terrible -- avatars would have been an improvement.

Rafer Guzman, Newsday

Thuddingly awful.

Some sequels suggest that no one involved with a franchise really cares anymore.

Rotten

A zombie plague may have laid waste the world, but apparently supplies of black leather unitards have yet to be exhausted.

During the film's final sequence the director explains all while also suggesting that the franchise's nuttiest days are, remarkably, yet to come.
