★ 4/10
As bad as the rest of the saga. Tons of action and FX with brainless script and plenty of bad actors.

★ 5/10
Second time seeing this one, basically feel the same way, not terribly impressive effort, some spotty visual effects, a few silly fun moments however the finale looked like a poor Matrix copycat. But found some parts entertaining enough, just nothing all that memorable. 2.5/5
Andre Gonzales2023-08-08
★ 6/10
Still in the process of bringing the umbrella company down. Alice finds out about a safe haven from her rescuers.
