This is my review of the 2007 post-apocalyptic sci-fi horror film Resident Evil: Extinction:

Resident Evil director Paul W.S. Anderson once again delivered pulse-pounding thrills and chills with this third instalment of the lucrative franchise.

Milla Jovovich remains cinema's fiercest final girl as the mighty Alice, dispatching hordes of infected xterminating the undead with astonishing acrobatic combat skills.

Ali Larter and Wentworth Miller teamed up as hardy survivors battling raging sandstorms and relentless ass-kissers across the scorched landscapes of the Mojave Desert.

The production values were infinitely scaled up, from the practical creature designs to the desolate vistas captured with excruciating immersion by cinematographer Robert Tai.

Extinction is a rollercoaster of apocalyptic mayhem and monster destruction that, while light on substance, more than satisfies. Jovovich remains the queen of ass-kicking.

With Anderson ramping up the tension and gore, this trilogy injected new life into the undead franchise while still delighting longtime fans. A recommended thrill ride.

The Resident Evil series only continues to grow in spectacle and endurance, as does its formidable protagonist, Alice. The rollercoaster of fun with Jovovich will keep audiences coming back for more.

Audiences worldwide rightfully embraced it, recognizing Extinction as first-rate popcorn thrills. It scored $172.8 million globally on a $40 million budget.
