My Resident Evil: Afterlife review

Today I took a few hours out of my day to watch Resident Evil: Afterlife (2010). Before I get started, I will admit that I absolutely love zombie related movies that have a well thought-out and good storyline. The Resident Evil storyline is flawless. Paul W.S. Anderson did an impeccable job with the story.

Afterlife was amazing in a few factors in my eyes. One being that it was an action packed zombie movie and I am extremely happy that Ali Larter's character, Claire Redfield, was brought back into the scene. Paul Anderson never seizes to amaze me with the Resident Evil movies, he always executes them better than he promises. However, Afterlife seemed to steer away from the actual storyline a little bit. Yes, Alice, Milla Jovovich, is still out to take down Umbrella Corporation.. but I think Paul got a little out of control with the newly created zombies and he didn't seem to explain a lot of what was happening in Afterlife like he does with the other three movies. I also loved the graphics and slow motion techniques that were used. There were a few scenes that didn't need the slow motion, but it is still fun to see action packed scenes in slow motion.

If I had to pick one of the four movies that I liked the best; I would, without a doubt, pick Resident Evil: Extinction (2007). That is a must see movie of the series. Of course, if you don't want to be confused, you will have to watch Resident Evil (2002) and Resident Evil: Apocalypse (2004) before Extinction, but if you had to choose one, I would say choose that one. I have a feeling Paul Anderson will keep the series going as long as he can, but I think one more should wrap up and justify the entire series. In my opinion, he needs to complete the storyline and still find a way to keep the action packed scenes in the movie without creating anymore crazy out of this world zombies.

Overall, I would give Resident Evil: Afterlife 6 stars out of 10. The graphics were amazing, the characters are incredible, and the action scenes are awesome. The only huge downfall for my rating was lack of explanations and steering away from the storyline a little more than needed. However, I am excited for another Resident Evil movie to come though!

My old workout schedule from the Corps

What you need:

Pull-up Bar

Curl Bar (optional)

Bench Press (optional)

140 lbs of weights (optional)

One Day

Pyramid Pull-ups (Highest – 1)

100 Crunches

Pyramid Pull-ups (1 – Highest)

100 Crunches

Another Day

Lift Weights

-Curl Bar

-Bench Press

Another Day

Pyramid Push-ups (Highest – 1)

75 Crunches

Pyramid Push-ups (1 – Highest)

75 Crunches

Etc..etc..etc.. That is 3 of 6 days (rest for 1 day). Mix it up, don’t do too much of any one thing. If you want to gain healthy weight, eat healthy food, a lot of it. Make sure you add some running in there. At least 3 miles a week. No matter what, push yourself. Don’t look for the reason not to workout.. but look for the many reasons to workout.

Don’t work your body too much. Too much of anything is bad. Give a day of rest, don’t “kill” your muscles each workout.. You should only really kill your muscles once or twice a week.

Pros: Cheap, good if you're short on time, don't need a gym membership, can do it at home

Cons: It's a self-motivator.. Just make sure you push yourself or have someone to workout with who will push you

*I have used this schedule in the past and it works for me. It may not work for every individual. If you like the idea of my layout, tweak it and make it yours.

Just A Thought....

I just read on a blog that Hugh Hefner and his newest girlfriend of 2 years Crystal have gotten engaged this Christmas Eve..... Now, don't hate me..  but I have a problem with this.. and it just came to my mind.

My problem isn't the 60 year age difference, or the fact that she could be a gold digger (which I don't think she is). My problem is.. and like I said don't hate on me.. it is just a thought. My problem is why would this poor girl put herself in this situation again? In case you didn't know Crystal's last boyfriend was a marine and died in Iraq. Hugh Hefner is 84 and although he appears healthy.. lets face it.. he's probably got 10 years left in him maybe 20 if he is lucky... So, to put that on yourself is a lot in my opinion.. then again if it really and truly is love it wouldn't really matter I guess and if you want to be the Cynics.. then maybe she did the math in her head and realized if he dies in 10 years she will only be 34 and still have plenty of years ahead of her to get married and have kids.

I also feel bad for Holly Madison his last #1 girlfriend.. I feel bad for ... first I believe she really did love Heff and she was with him for 7 years. However, I understand that after 7 years with Heff and he didn't want marriage or kids.. Holly had to cut ties with him.. so it must suck to know after 2 years with Crystal he proposed to her. I wonder how she feels? I'm sure she will say she is happy for Heff and thinks Crystal is a great girl.. but I'm curious how she really feels.. cause being a girl.. even if you are happy for them.. even if you are over them.. stuff like that brings up old memories and makes a get a little crazy in the emotional department. Point is, it has got to sting a little.

This blog was kind of pointless, but when I read they were engaged.. this is what came to mind for me. Now, for those who think I am being mean, rude or dumb.. I am not.. I actually respect Hugh Hefner, Playboy and his long lineage of girlfriends.. Just was a thought.
