I'm trying to catch up on reviews for the other six. I think Star Wars is okay, The Empire Strikes Back is much better, The Return of the Jedi is (mostly because of the militant wing of the Care Bears) the weakest of Trilogy.

With the newest films, although it is basically the same as Star Wars: A New Hope, I enjoyed The Force Awakens, thought The Last Jedi better than any of the other Star Wars films – Empire Strikes Back included – and The Last Skywalker building on everything which had come before to bring a fitting end to that trilogy.

I haven't watched it recently, but I think my favourite Star Wars film is Rogue One.

Resident Evil: The Final Chapter (2016)

And so this record breaking video game horror franchise comes to an end and thankfully everything is pretty much sewn up in a satisfying conclusion.

The only other film in the series that is multi referenced is the 2002 original, both in plot terms and in fan pleasing references to past events namely the corridor of automated grid traps.

The film begins with a huge set piece and in true video game fashion never lets up from beginning to end. It's a pop corn thrill ride where characterization gives way to action. In fact the only ones with any depth are Milla Jovovich's Alice and Iain Glen's satisfyingly evil Dr Isaacs. The rest including Ali Larter's Claire Redfield are hastily fashioned cardboard cut outs.

Come the end, the Umbrella Corporation is liquidized, a T-virus cure is airborne and Alice sets off on another journey as a voice over is heard

"When the T-virus spread across the Earth, it did so at the speed of the modern world, carried by jetliners across the globe. The antivirus is airborne, spread by the winds. It could take years for it to reach every corner of the Earth. Until then, my work is not done. My name is Alice."

Final installment or not. If you enjoy the Resident Evil films then this is recommended, but for non-fans it isn't likely to win you over

I've loved seeing all these films again on blu-ray. The sound quality of them is superb. From the loudest explosions to the quietest tinkling, it's a wonderfully immersive experience. £20 very well spent.

Are the blu-ray box sets of The Matrix and Back to the Future far superior to their dvd counterparts in the same way Resident Evil is?

The Matrix films definitely are. I'm not sure about Back to the Future because I only have them on DVD.

Thanks, Nos.

The Matrix box set is £13 in Sainsbury's so i might pick it up next week.

What a boring over bloated piece of shit, way too long by at least an hour with a bunch of unlikable character's. All not bore people with the shit story, just do yourself a favour and avoid it like a zombie apocalypse.

Thanks Treb I was going to watch this tonight,but I'm going to watch The Horror of Party Beach instead.... cheers:thankingyou:

Howling II: Your Sister Is A Werewolf (1985, Philippe Mora)

A lot of fun. The cast alone ahem. I look forward to the third installment methinks :nod::lol::rolleyes:

My son enjoyed it but I didn't like the sheer amount of unnecessary dialogue, the predictably or the running time and I have no problem with long films if the story demands it.

It just seemed long ,just for the sake of length. Should of been 90 minutes , the opening credits was by far the best bit of the film, then it crawls to a snail's pace with loads of boring and pointless dialogue.
