Resident Evil: Retribution makes me think that Paul W.S. Anderson is going through a divorce, has Alzheimer's, or is on crack.
RE: Retribution is essentially a highlights real of previous movies, recreating environments, bringing back bad guys, etc. What it lacks is conviction and what it is full of is inconsistency. Weapons, zombies, as well as characters are inconsistent throughout the movie. The acting is beyond poor and the one-liners, which I don't recall in the other movies, are worse than anything that has ever come out of Sylvester Stalone's mouth.
Not only did Resident Evil: Retribution not further the plot of the franchise, is possibly set it back. After watching this installment, it is evident that at least 1 or 2 of the previous movies happened in a controlled environment orchestrated by Umbrella, and perhaps ALL of the previous movies.
In closing, I did want to point out that Shawn Roberts (Wesker) has gained a lot of weight and looks ridiculous at the end of the movie, as he's stuffed (literally) into a black body suite.
