Continuity mistake: There is a scene of Alice being dragged by a line behind Isaacs' tank ahead of a horde of zombies. There is no other line next to running Alice. When she climbs upon the tank to attack the guard, another line with torn hands is seen being dragged on the road, where Alice was dragged. (00:21:15 - 00:23:45)

9.5/10.It ends.Sad but it was necessary as Alice couldn't go anywhere else.I was glad they had Albert Wesker, Claire Redfield though I wish Rain Ocampo had made one more appearance.Hey I liked Michelle Rodriguez in these movies, she fit perfectly.Some said it was a messy finale I disagree.If anything I understood it, enjoyed immensely.Sure they did a sort of open ending, I chose to interpret it as Alice achieving peace.I would rank it high on my list of 20 Best Sequel Endings:1.Spider Man 2,2.Friday the 13th Part 6:Jason Lives,3.A Nightmare On Elm Street 2:Freddy's Revenge,4.Resident Evil:The Final Chapter,5.Godzilla 2:King Of The Monsters,6.Rocky 4,7.Insurgent,8.Beverly Hills Cop 2,9.Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2:Out Of The Shadows,10.Kung Fu Panda 2,11. Halloween 2 (1981),12.Dirty Harry:Magnum Force,13.Problem Child 2,14.Sharknado:The Final One,15.Bride Of Frankenstein,16. The Naked Gun 33 1/3:The Final Insult,17.Die Hard With A Vengeance,18.Star Trek 4:The Voyage Home,19.Shrek 2,20.Gremlins 2:The New Batch/Scream 2 (a tie here). Sequels often come with people's desire to continue the story the way you would with fairy tales.True some do it out of greed but I feel more people care about continuing with something that works well.They could try a spinoff or a reboot but it wouldn't work.It shall always be Milla Anderson, nee Jovovich, as Alice in a dystopian world.
Dr. Isaacs: We've played a long game, you and me, but now it's over.
Alice: Yes. Yes, it is.
Dr. Isaacs: I made you.
Alice: Yeah. Big mistake.
Trivia: While the film had the lowest domestic gross of the series ($26 million in comparison to the $40-$60 million each other film grossed), it was somewhat ironically also the highest grossing film of the franchise internationally, and as a result also ended up being the highest grossing film of the series worldwide, earning $312 million against a $40 million budget. It serves as a rare example of a film that is a flop in domestic markets while still technically being a resounding success.
Question: In Resident Evil Extinction, the White Queen says Alice's blood is the cure for the whole infection. So what the heck was everyone doing the whole time? Why act so surprised to find a cure, which by the way came out of nowhere, when you were the cure the entire time?

Answer: In all honestly... this film series isn't one to shy away from ret-conning elements of prior films. ("Ret-con" being short for "retroactive continuity" - a storytelling device in which rules and plot-points are either changed or ignored in later installments.) This just seems to be another example of a ret-con. The idea that Alice was the "cure" all along would have ended the series a lot sooner, and they wanted to make more movies, so they just sort-of "ignored" this idea in the sequels that followed "Extinction."
