Resident Evil: Extinction

Continuity mistake: After the Zombies are unleashed in the desert scene, we see Carlos crawling under the truck. At first his semi-automatic gun seems to be completely normal. The gun's slide and chamber are closed as if there are still bullets in the magazine or at least one bullet is chambered. But then the camera focuses on his gun and we see the gun's chamber is open - as if there are no bullets left. The gun didn't fire between shots so it's chamber should have been open in the first place. (00:58:10)

Continuity mistake: In the scene where Dr. Isaacs escapes from Alice in a AS350B Eurocopter, we see that the helicopter's landing gear has an additional iron bar that has been changed from one scene to another. When the helicopter lands in the desert, the bar is missing. So Dr. Isaacs flew away in one helicopter and landed in another. (01:04:00)

Continuity mistake: When the tanker explodes that Carlos jackknifes at the end scene, the zombies that surrounded the tanker simply fall over from the explosion. However when Alice drives the H2 up to and through the wreckage the ground is clear of any fallen bodies. (01:10:50)

Continuity mistake: Alice jumps up to avoid the laser at the very start and the laser cuts part of her dress off that is to fall to the floor. However when she lands the separate part is not on the floor where it should be. (00:03:30)

Continuity mistake: Alice exits from the gas station and gets on her bike to read the book she obtained inside the gas station. However we see her looking at a page with a picture and the word "Isolated" on it. When the camera changes and she is closing the book it's on a different page. She's not changed the page as it's audible when she does and the sound is missing. (00:20:15)

Suggested correction: The head restraint only disappears when the zombie is sat chained to a table. No longer in a full body restraint that it was in when it was injected.

Continuity mistake: When Dr.Isaacs is injecting a zombie with his domestication serum, he changes positions from being beside the zombie, to being on the opposite side of the table. (00:26:10)

Upvote valid corrections to help move entries into the corrections section.

Suggested correction: When the zombie is injected he's in a full body restraint system. When Dr Issacs is across the table, some time has passed as the zombie is now sat at a table.

Plot hole: When the survivors break into the Umbrella compound, Alice helps load survivors onto the helicopter. The helicopter portrayed has a max occupancy of 6, and somehow Alice manages to squeeze 20+ survivors onto the helicopter, with no problems whatsoever. (01:11:05)

More quotes from Resident Evil: Extinction

Trivia: At one point, the opening scene of the clone Alice in the simulated mansion was going to be longer and include re-creations of more moments from the original film. This was to try and confuse audiences and possibly make them believe that somehow they were seeing the wrong film and create a sense of unease. However, it was deemed far too long, and was trimmed down.

Question: Is this supposed to be Albert Wesker in the film? IMDB lists him as Albert, but I'm fairly certain I saw the part listed as Sherman Wesker in the film.

Answer: You have likely confused "Sherman Wesker" with "Chairman Wesker" which he is referred to in the film.
