Trivia: The footage of the T-cells Wesker injects Alice with is reused from Resident Evil: Afterlife, only in that one, it's the cure for the virus.

Factual error: Rain injects herself with the Las Plagas parasite, which seems to take the form of a little scorpion. Little or not, it's not small enough to be pushed through an injection needle.

Resident Evil: Retribution (2012)
Continuity mistake: When the Rolls Royce jumps through the yellow van, the Spirit of Ecstacy (the emblem of Rolls Royce) breaks off, but at the end of the chase, it's still in place. (00:52:55 - 00:55:50)

Resident Evil: Retribution (2012)
Continuity mistake: When Jill Valentine jumps out of the Umbrella chopper, her outfit and guns differ from what she was wearing and carrying in the post-credits scene of Resident Evil: Afterlife. (00:05:55)

Resident Evil: Retribution (2012)
Continuity mistake: One of the zombies fires an RPG into a yellow van. The van then moves forward and bumps into another car in front of it. When Alice jumps through the van, they have moved apart again. (00:50:45)

Resident Evil: Retribution (2012)
Continuity mistake: At one point during the chase, a zombie pulls up and shoots the driver side window, during an inside shot. The shot then briefly cuts back outside, and look closely: the driver side window is still there.

Resident Evil: Retribution (2012)
Revealing mistake: Alice throws a new magazine for her gun up, and it stays in the air for a good ten seconds (adjusted for slow-mo). For something to stay up in the air, you would need to throw it a good hundred feet, and the hallway simply isn't that high. (00:22:40)

Factual error: Alice and Ada blow up a taxi by shooting the gas-tank. Shooting the gas tank of a car won't blow it up - as was tested by Mythbusters. (00:38:15)

Resident Evil: Retribution (2012)
Continuity mistake: Outside of the corridor of light sequence, nobody ever seems to run out of ammo, or bother to reload, most notably Ada and Alice.

Resident Evil: Retribution (2012)
Deliberate mistake: Empty magazines aren't that heavy, but when Alice kicks it into the face of one of the zombies, it looks like he's being hit with a baseball bat. (00:22:45)

Resident Evil: Retribution (2012)
Factual error: Semi-automatic guns don't just click empty, like they do in a lot of movies. The slide would lock back until you manually cock the gun. Yet in the corridor of light scene, this is exactly what happens: Alice's gun just clicks when it's empty.

Continuity mistake: The Rolls-Royce constantly goes from being bulletproof, to not being armored at all.

Factual error: Typhoon-class submarines have a crew of 163 men. It is impossible for Jill Valentine to operate a submarine on her own, even with help from Rain.

Resident Evil: Retribution (2012)
Revealing mistake: When Alice shoots the zombie in the blue dress, we get a frontal shot of the gun. Pay close attention to her trigger finger: it doesn't move at all, while the gun does fire.

Resident Evil: Retribution (2012)
Continuity mistake: When Alice knocks over the giant Licker in the Rolls-Royce, the driver's side of the car remains completely undamaged. Unlikely, but for the rest of the chase there are four giant scratches across the rear of the car. (00:51:10 - 00:52:05)

Resident Evil: Retribution (2012)
Other mistake: When Alice pushes in the new magazine, she doesn't pull back on the slide, meaning the gun doesn't have a new bullet in the chamber, thus is unable to shoot.

Chosen answer: Umbrella can produce their DNA's again and again.They use them because Alice acts mostly with her feelings and all these persons mean something to her.
