A.V. Club
The acting is sometimes shockingly bad, but generally the script doesn’t ask much of the actors, and the combat is effectively staged and often thrilling.

A mind-melting popcorn film gelled with insane amounts of action-packed eye-candy.

Los Angeles Times
If they ran these scenes at normal speed, would 95 dreary minutes become a much more expedient 20 to 25?

Slant Magazine
At this point in the franchise, Anderson is content to alight the saga on a perpetual rewind loop, ever-ending, ever-rebooting, all subsidised by his nonpareil compositional sense.

TV Guide
The Resident Evil films... seem to be evolving into their own brand of hyper-stylized cheese, made more extreme with each outing.

Village Voice
Anderson['s] lavish visual imagination is matched to a placeholder idea of character that's almost avant-garde in its generic stylization, dialogue buffed of personality by passing through 10,000 previous movies.

Taking place almost entirely inside computer-simulated global locations, "Retribution" moves closer than ever to its airless video game roots.
