5 Things I Learned from Resident Evil: The Final Chapter (2016)

If you are like me who grew up watching The Resident Evil movie collection, then you know you have a weird relationship with the movie series; it’s somewhat a guilty pleasure until it is not.

The earlier Resident Evil movies were wonky and sloppy to say the least.

I thought to share with you the things I learned throughout watching Resident Evil: The Final Chapter, because hey! if this is the last then we all need to know what we can learned from the film. It has been a long 15 years for Alice and gang who survived the freaking T-virus in the Resident Evil movie collection. Read on! (beware of the spoilers…)

Thank you to Warner Bross. Pictures Publicity for this exclusive press material for the upcoming The Lego Batman Movie releasing on February 10th, 2017.

But there are big changes brewing in Gotham City, and if he wants to save the city from The Joker’s hostile takeover, Batman may have to drop the lone vigilante thing, try to work with others and maybe, just maybe, learn to lighten up.
