Resident Evil: Retribution (2012) movie:----------Synopsis
The Umbrella Corporation's T-virus continues to ravage the Earth, transforming the global population into flesh-eating undead. Meanwhile, Alice (Milla Jovovich), awakens in the heart of Umbrella's most secret operations facility and unveils more of her mysterious past as she delves further into the complex. Without a safe haven, Alice continues to hunt those responsible for the outbreak; a chase that takes her from Tokyo to New York, Washington, D.C. and Moscow, culminating in a revelation that will force her to rethink everything that she once thought to be true. Aided by newfound allies and familiar friends, Alice must fight to survive long enough to escape a hostile world on the brink of oblivion.
Resident Evil: Retribution (2012) movie:-----------Cast
Milla Jovovich as Alice
An ex-employee of Umbrella Corporation, and primary protagonist of the film series. After being tested on by Umbrella, she sets out to destroy all of those who started the outbreak. When asked about her character, Jovovich says that "Alice started off as the audience, as this innocent bystander watching what’s going on and then finally understanding what role she had to play in all of it and who she was. And then throughout the series, she kinda started separating from people. You know, first she realized Umbrella was controlling her, so she couldn’t be close to people. Now that she’s human again, and not only human again, but now she’s almost… I mean, this is her life. This is what she loves in a weird, sick way. It’s what she does best. And I think in this one, she has a little bit more of a sense of humor about it and is a little more relaxed with it. It’s not as shocking as it normally is. In a sense, now she’s got her friends, her team, she’s part of a team. She’s a human being again, so she’s connected with the people around her. And she has fun with them. In some strange, twisted way, she gets a kick out of it."
Sienna Guillory as Jill Valentine
A former police officer of Raccoon City and ally of Alice who was captured and subsequently mind-controlled by Umbrella to find Alice, hence becoming the main antagonist of the film. Sometime after the events of Resident Evil: Apocalypse, Jill was captured by the Umbrella Corporation and is under their control through the Scarab Appliance on her chest. Guillory was originally set to appear in Resident Evil: Extinction, but she dropped out due to her commitment to Eragon. She made a cameo appearance in Resident Evil: Afterlife.
Michelle Rodriguez as Rain Ocampo
A pair of clones of Rain Ocampo, who was an Umbrella commando operative from the original film where she died. The Umbrella Corporation has cloned Rain, creating a "Good Rain" and a "Bad Rain". "Bad Rain" will be hunting down Alice, under Jill's orders. For many years, Anderson has been trying to get Rodriguez back in the Resident Evil films. He says that he wanted "to kind of give her an opportunity to play something different." Rodriguez explains "Bad Rain" as "mechanical, very straight-forward and very matter-of-fact" and "Good Rain" as "awkward and different - someone who is quirky and doesn’t know how to handle a gun and someone who is curious."

Resident Evil: Retribution (2012) movie:------------Development
After the release of Resident Evil: Afterlife, director Paul W.S. Anderson was in discussion with Screen Gems of filming a fifth and sixth film back to back. But Anderson later decided to just focus on Retribution. Anderson returned as writer and director, Glen McPherson serves as director of photography, Kevin Phipps as production designer, and Nick Powell as both a fight choreographer and second-unit director.
Influences
An element from Resident Evil 4, a parasite called Las Plagas will play a part in the film and will allow the undead to "run around, ride motorbikes, and shoot machine guns."[14] An action scene inspired by Resident Evil 5 where the characters are driving a Hummer while being chased by zombies is featured, but for the film the Hummer was changed to a Rolls Royce Phantom.
Aside from the video games, writing for the film was heavily influenced by science-fiction films. "I think Inception had a huge impact on everyone," says Bolt, "and I think Westworld is an important film to Paul. Everybody knows, because he talks about it enough, the Alien series, Blade Runner, all these things are inspirations."
Makeup effects supervisor Paul Jones stated that he wanted the makeup on the zombies to look realistic. He took inspiration from Day of the Dead.
The film's fight sequences were influenced by Asian cinema. "We watched a lot of Thai movies this time around because of the movies (Powell) has done" says Anderson. "He did The Last Samurai as well. He has worked with a lot of Japanese stuntmen and he has worked with a lot of Hong Kong stuntmen. But we felt the area that hadn’t been mined by western cinema much was that whole kind of high impact Thai style of fighting. So we just watched a lot of action sequences from a lot of Thai movies. There were moves and just a general feel that we thought we could infuse the movie with. You know, that kind of bone crunch where you really feel the impact. We tried to bring that into the movie, which is also good for 3D because obviously 3D makes it harder to sell those kind of fake phony punches because you see the distance between the fist and the face. So that kind of Thai style of fighting where you actually make contact is a lot stronger.

Resident Evil: Retribution (2012) movie:----------Filming
Principal photography started on October 10 and wrapped on December 23, 2011 for a 55 day shoot. Filming locations included Toronto at Cinespace's Kipling studio facility,3 Times Square in New York City, Tokyo, and Red Square in Moscow. Resident Evil: Retribution is the second film in the series to be shot in 3D, the first being Resident Evil: Afterlife. It was also filmed in 4K resolution. The Red Epic camera system was used, which producer Jeremy Bolt said is 50% smaller than the Sony F35 that was used for Resident Evil: Afterlife.
On October 11, a platform collapsed during the second day of filming and injured 16 people on the set. According to Toronto police, ten people were taken to the hospital for emergency treatment. Injuries included bruises and broken bones. Emergency workers had a difficult time determining which injuries were real since the people were dressed in zombie costumes with fake blood.
The streets of Red Square were cleared for a day and background filming was done in the Russian subway after it was cleared for five hours. Most of the streets were built into sets. The car chase scene was filmed in late November in Moscow.
Durand and Roberts wrapped filming in the first week of December and Li wrapped on December 14. A fight scene between Jill and Alice that involved over 200 moves began filming December 14 until the end of production.
