Resident Evil: Extinction (2007) - Blu-ray Forum

PS3_Kiwi · 03-16-2008, 10:15 PM

I am thinking of purchasing Resident Evil Extinction on BD. I have seen the upscaled DVD version which I thought was pretty good, and decided to search for some BD reviews.

Martin Liebman on Blu-ray.com gives the Movie 4, PQ 5 and SQ 5.

Joshua Zyber on Hi-Def Digest gives the movie 3, PQ 3.5, and SQ 4.5.

Looks like the SQ is good, but how can there be such a big difference in PQ.

I only buy BD's which have 4.5 to 5 for PQ, so I would like your opinions on the PQ. I have seen the movie on SD DVD, so I have formed my own opinion on that.

So lets hear your opinions on the PQ.

PQ was about a 4 out of 5. Some parts looked great while others not so much. Some of the long shots of the desert looked great. Movie sucked, and felt like a Sci-Fi channel original though.

I thought the movie was average, but there were some excellent scenes, especially the attack of the crows.

i would give the pq 5/5

owa · 03-16-2008, 11:01 PM

I'd give it at least a 4.5.

Here's another review (home theater spot): http://www.hometheaterspot.com/fusio...hp?tid/140020/

They gave it 5/5.

I loved the PQ in this movie, my favorite of the series. Great, fun flick.

Chuey · 03-16-2008, 11:08 PM

I give it a 4.875 to the PQ and I actually like the movie for what it is, not gonna get any kind of Academy Award but it is fun to watch.

Doobiewah · 03-16-2008, 11:08 PM

I'd give it a 4.5 easy....the softer scenes in the movie are meant to be that way and the transfer was excellent from what was on the big screen. Any mention of negatives in reviews regarding this makes me wonder if the reviewer saw the movie in the theaters (I did). If you like the RE movies, this one is great on BR and a nice addition to the collection, IMHO.

Don't put all of your stock in citics because most of their review is opinion. There is no objective viewer. I would suggest getting a netflix account and renting every blu ray before you buy it just so you can review it yourself. Thats the only way you will get a solid review that you can rely on.

Heck, Hi-Def Digest gave 'MI:III' a 5 for PQ and I personally think the PQ sucks worse than the 'House of Flying Daggers' PQ, which REALLY REALLY sucks.

I agree to view prior to buying with Netflix. This has saved me a lot of money.

I thought the PQ on M.I.3 was excellent. Loved the movie too!

I was hoping that the new film would finally explain what happened to the White Queen but she was never heard from again after this movie, what a waste.

I think you've mixed up Alice in Wonderland with the Resident Evil franchise.

No I'm not? The White Queen is a character in this movie. The Red Queen was in the first and last two films.

They were using a different operating system in that one, simple!
