Fourth film in the series. I loved the first, hated the second, and enjoyed the third. So here we are.
It's pretty hard to fuck this up if you give the audience what they want. Zombies and lots of bloodshed. Throw in two of the hottest chicks in Hollywood in Mila Jovovich and Wentworth Miller and you've got a recipe for success.
This sort of picks up where the last one left off, timeline wise at least. But Alice has been doing some traveling between films. The bulk of this one is centered around Alice and the few living souls she finds trying to make their way to Arcadia, which turns out not to be what we, or she thought it was. Ali Larter also returns.
What it wants to do it does well enough, the story feels more like the middle then the end however, and there's a bit too much of the slow motion shit for my tastes. It's very much a one note movie and besides Miller, there aren't really any strong new characters, but whatevs.
Big, loud and bombastic, Resident Evil 4 doesn't break any new ground but rather keeps chugging along with the tried and true formula. If you wanna see a hot chick kill zombies and jump around to shitty music then you'll love this movie.
