How is it anti Christian? How does it say men are evil? Or doctors? Or corporations?
There is one specific bad guy, one specific bad corporation, one specific bad girl one specific bad ai. There aren't messages they are just characters. You are trying to find meaning where there isn't any. The movie is about action+zombie killing and it fulfills that perfectly.
The movies/timeline/plot/secondary characters, none of that makes any sense at all, but there is glorious zombie monster killing and it is great.
The movie was garbage. Zombie killing wasn't even good.
WARNING SOME SPOILERS BELOW, BUT MOVIE IS TRASH SO WHO CARES WARNING SOME SPOILERS BELOW, BUT MOVIE IS TRASH SO WHO CARES1. Why would they make the main bad guy a Christian, and more than one occasion choose to show Christian crosses thru out the movie to reiterate that message? Honestly why even put that in a resident evil movie at all? It had no place being in the movie. They guy is dressed as a priest.
Do you think the fact that they made him a Christian added anything to the substance of an already trash movie? Did it add a lot of depth to his character.. lol THE MOVIE COULD HAVE DONE WITH OUT IT... BUT THEY DECIDE TO MAKE IT AN EMPHASIS OF THE CHARACTER? REPETEDLY?
2. EVERY SINGLE MALE IN THE MOVIE. every single one. was either a bad guy, or had no major role in the movie and was ultimately killed. EVERY. SINGLE. FUCKING. ONE.
my favorite line in the movie. Alice is fighting that one Asian bad guy, and hes kinda kicking her ass, this is the exact line from the movie as I remember it. "You're fast, but you are not very smart..." and then she proceeds to blast him away with the triple barrel shotgun..
3. They been kinda using this Umbrela is an evil corporation thing and I know its part of the movie. But when it kinda goes into that meeting room scene. and the guy is describing, oh lets start the apocalypse because oh you know, famine, global warming, etc etc is all inevitable..
just plays into this theme of corporations are evil... and the rich people who run them are all evil. They are going down the hive... all those cryo tubes... the high up's of umbrella, the rich, the wealthy ones... they are the ones who cause this, they are evil.
4. Even the red queen... who is an ai 'girl' but can be seen as evil in past movies... is some how portrayed as oh... I ultimately make the right decisions to help save humanity, so I'm good. AGAIN PLAYING INTO THIS NARATIVE... all girls are powerful, smart, and ultimately right while all men are evil.
THE RED FUCKING QUEEN.... IS ULTIMATELY A GOOD CHARACTER LOL...
5. Doctors. "Doctor" Issacs ... the main villain in the movie. The other guy. "Doc" the guy who supposedly their friend and trying to help them, but in the end he ultimately betrays Alice and turns out to be evil. I mean, why is it the "doctor" who is the main evil bad guy. Why is it another "doctor" who is trying to help them but ultimately trying to sabotage them and kill them... Why couldn't it just been a random girl... or just a random guy... but NO. Lets make sure its a male. Lets make sure everyone knows hes another bad Doctor, heck we will even call him "Doc" in the movie and have him be a bad guy. They go out of their way to put this subtle idea that doctors are evil...
All this on top of repetitive , mediocre zombie killing... most of it was so fake and unbelievable. ( oh looks like at least 100,000+ zombies are coming maybe a million are coming, we have no weapons, "we have gas tho" lol give me a fucking break..)
All of this was "
The Final Chapter" ... just a disgraceful piece of trash that I spent $12 to see in theaters, 14 for soda and popcorn.. and about 2 hours of my life I will never get back..
I was coming in expecting so see the final chapter as a resident evil fan, what I got was politicized garbage.. nothing more.
