6/10
A Video-Game with Explosions and Shootings
1 January 2013
Alice (Milla Jovovich) awakes at home with her daughter Becky (Aryana Engineer) and her husband. But soon she realizes that she is actually in an Umbrella Corporation's underground facility. Out of the blue, the computer security system shuts-down and Alice flees to the central control room of the facility. She meets Ada Wong (Bingbing Li), who works with Albert Wesker (Shawn Roberts), and she learns that a five-man team has been sent by Wesker to rescue them. However, the Red Queen sends Jill Valentine (Sienna Guillory) and Rain (Michelle Rodriguez) to hunt them down.

"Resident Evil 5 – Retribution" is so far the weakest movie of this franchise. Actually it is a video-game with a short story and lots of explosions and shootings. "Resident Evil 5 – Retribution" works better on Blu-Ray or DVD, since it might be unbearable for those who have gone to the movie theater to see this flick. The writer needs new ideas and not reboot the story. My vote is six.

Title (Brazil): "Resident Evil – Retribuição" ("Resident Evil – Retribution")

Note: On 02 February 2017, I saw this film again.
