I liked this actually more than the Mila J, series of films. As I was looking at RCPD building, visuals and environment I had pleasant memories surfacing of the original RE 1 game. Some casting choices were strange, I particularly didn't like the police chief and Jill Valentine, but regardless, I was able to enjoy this movie from beginning to end. I'd like to highlight the character of Effy (I know that's not your name, darling, but you'll always be Effy to me, no matter the role) She played the role of Claire Redfield very well. Some things could have been better, but all in all the singular description comes to my mind regarding the movie that it was faithfully adapted the RE1 game, that's a win in my book. Well done.… Expand

Great adaptation. Nailed the atmosphere. Story a bit rushed and some things were translated oddly and poorly. But overall a fun Romero esque zombie movie more inspired by resident evil than anything.

Los personajes están muy regulares, no por ni parecerse que para mí es lo de menos, sino que están más muertos que las propias criaturas, no es culpa de los actores sino del pésimo guión que se les dió, es Chris Redfield el personaje mejor logrado dentro de lo posible, los demás simpáticos por cuenta propia pero sin química en conjunto, el jefe Irons tiene la particularidad de ser el rompehielos de la cinta y para finalizar está Leon, el personaje peor logrado siendo un verdadero cretino la mayor parte de la película, pero ese momento fan service del final le brinda un poco de justicia.

William Birkin, bien implementado, pero desaprovechado. Los escenarios fueron también un aspecto muy bien logrado y los efectos especiales estuvieron bien si tomamos en cuenta que no es una película de alto presupuesto.

Nota: 6.5 de 10.

Postdata: Creo que la mayoría no entiende el concepto de adaptación, lo otro es ser directamente un copia y pega, si tanto les molesta que los personajes sean distintos, quédense con el material de origen que son los videojuegos que para eso están ahí...… Expand

However, it is a faithful transposition of the first two games of the Capcom saga, with some interesting visual flickers and some narrative license. Overall, Johannes Roberts' film lets itself be watched despite not being the most memorable of the cinematic tie-ins nor the best of the genre zombie movies: it is exactly in the middle, with the same grammar of horror and the mythology of the beloved.

I truly believe it followed the games a lot more than people are saying it did. There were lots of small and big intricate moments that really pieced many things together from the Resident Evil 1 & 2 games. The end credits set up the 3rd game for the sequel movie. Also, it was a lot scarier than I thought it would be, which was much appreciated. Was it perfect? No. I will say, I do wish they would have made the first movie based off of some beginning stuff and more of the first game instead of rushing to get both games in so the character's development could have been a little better. Leon needed to be better portrayed and there was an overuse of the F word in many of the characters, which was pointless and a lack of script lines. BUT, it was honestly overall a very good movie and has me very eager for the sequel… Expand

It’s a fun B rated zombie flick with cheesy lines, some cringe moments , and funny moments and truly iconic scenery. The acting was all pretty good given what they were going for. I enjoyed my time in the theaters with this movie TWICE so far! My only grip is I wish it was longer and some story events had more time to get fleshed out. I’d recommend for sure and will buy the blu ray when it’s released.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This movie both insults your intelligence and the Resident Evil series, all while wasting quality set design and cinematography. This movie will please no one and at the same time waste credible talent.

This is basically the standard Hollywood "video game movie" of the Resident Evil remakes which have met with tremendous success over the last 5 years. To say it's lazy is a massive understatement, this pretty much is just cashing in on that success. There are references and nods to the originals forced in with little or no thought from the "Jill sandwich" in the diner to the RE2 keys in the orphanage. While the old RE movies took the games and threw them out of the window, this movie has clearly done the research but just doesn't care to do anything interesting at all with it. To say it's "faithful" is just a massive **** you to the intelligence of the viewer and the fan. It isn't. That's why more than anything this movie, and the director DESERVE the **** reviews. It's incredibly unfortunate that real work went into this movie.

A lot of the changes are just the standard leftist revisionism. Every white male character must be a douchebag, incompetent or a bumbling buffoon. Every female character must be a flawless badass. Very standard character beats for the typical "woke" movie. If that's all you need to know then you can rest assured you're missing absolutely nothing else and can continue with your search for something decent to watch.

The CGI is incredibly, incredibly bad. I watched an interview with the director where someone remarked that the RE mansion would be great on film. How ironic for it to be arguably the most butchered thing in the movie. When they first walk into the mansion it is JARRINGLY terrible CGI. Why they thought they would do that in CGI is beyond me. They immediately switch to a physical set afterwards which is just baffling. Another scene with the RPD reception is as bad. I can only reason this movie went through complete production hell.

What's so annoying is the set design, cinematography, and shot composition are all amazing largely thanks to some John Carpenter fans working on this. I can only imagine those poor souls had to fight tooth and nail for this not to be a complete disaster for all involved. If the entire movie had been CGI, you wouldn't have been able to release it.

At the same time they are battling a director hell bent on turning it into an action movie.

The director has no idea how to use horror or imagery. It's all just gawky terrible jump scares with imagery/references from RE thrown in for good measure. 90s nostalgia music and the Moonlight Sonata are just wielded arbitrarily instead of really used to invoke terror or dread. The turning of the zombie head, the cliché hand on the helicopter window. All played for horror but due to a complete lack of understanding of how to invoke the chill terror it all falls flat. So he just falls back on what every hack knows, jump scares.

This movie is as if Ghost of Mars and Resident Evil made a twisted love child, except Ghost of Mars didn't rip off a video game series, **** all over it then tell us to suck it down.

Here's a brief character rundown for those interested:

Wesker - The dickhead, zero mystique. nothing like the original tbh.
Jill - Complete character redesign, woke-washed to be half-black now I guess. Basically a new character that happens to have the same name. Randomly involved with Wesker I think, movie really wasn't clear on this.
Claire - Terrible casting, terrible execution. Claire is basically an upbeat character in the originals instead of some sulky burned out 29 year old actress. The actress has no idea how to play the character which is a shame because there is now an abundance of actresses that have voiced and played her who would probably do more justice to the role.
Leon - Suddenly Indian. Incompetent right up until the final scene since all men must be incompetent because feminism. A potentially good actor ****ed over by a ****ty role.
Chris - Good guy but pretty much the naïve fool seemingly, probably the most well cast. Sells the fact that he is a cop far more than the others but is just desperately trying to deal with a script and story that is fighting him. Some of the lines he is given are the worst I've heard.

Wardrobe is awful. Fire whoever did that half assed job. Chris and Leon look great, the rest are just awful. Why put so much effort into the cop uniforms only for half the ****ing cast to not wear them. It's the 90s and they're wearing tac vests you might use in airsoft.

There is a complete lack of cohesive vision here. The RE2 remake fundamentally understood how to reinvent something while being respectful. This is just a bad director going "hey Capcom, let me copy your homework".… Expand

There they tried to copy a couple of characters, they invented a couple, and then it generally looked like an author's movie about Mila, but not based on the game. For me, all the films that Paul W. S. Anderson made on Resident Evil are a completely separate look at the game, he came up with something of his own, which was watchable during the first 2 films, where something else was like at least out of the corner of his eye on games, but then he broke through the bottom and starting from the 3rd part it was incomprehensible fantasy and rare references, but had nothing to do with games. Half of the main characters became just dummy bots, heroes of the 2nd-3rd and 4th plan, which finally killed the franchise in the end, because the main character is a fictional Alice, and the locations were constantly changing and only mixed the logic of the films more, turning them more into some kind of then a series without a plot, where each part is a separate plot, like in 'Friends', but obviously not like in the film adaptation of one of the most popular games.

In the same film, almost everything corresponds to the atmosphere and plot of the game, and with minimal discrepancies, while even the fact that the appearance of the actors does not cosplay the characters is a huge plus, it makes it easier to perceive that this is a film, and not just frame-by-frame reshooting of scripted scenes between levels of the game.

I really liked the picture, special thanks for the costumes close to the game, locations and of course the incredible atmosphere, because in the original game, in the remakes - the main feature of the game has always been a creepy dark atmosphere, screamers from around the corner, etc.

Unlike what Anderson shows us, here even unenlightened people will understand the plot - since the characters partially voice it and make it clear what kind of city it is, what is happening here and what their motivation is, and not just “I am a villain”, “A I am a hero, I will save everyone.” In general, the film is not perfect, but definitely better than what was before and certainly deserves a sequel, which I would definitely like to see in the context of the game scenarios, and not incomprehensibly what “based on the game with my wife in the lead role”.… Expand

Resident Evil: Welcome to Raccoon City may not be every RE fan’s cup of tea. But do give props to the director trying to tie it close to the game’s universe one way or another. And owing to the fact that the reboot has a much smaller budgetResident Evil: Welcome to Raccoon City may not be every RE fan’s cup of tea. But do give props to the director trying to tie it close to the game’s universe one way or another. And owing to the fact that the reboot has a much smaller budget that the Project: Alice series, we cannot evidently say that the movie is a flop but I can wholeheartedly say that the reboot has successively done its job very impressively well.

We must also take into consideration that COVID-19 doesn’t allow for a full house due to safety measures in place but for me it was all marked seats taken on that night I went to watch; even the front row wasn’t spared.

No one should ever criticise a film just because of casting decisions or because they didn’t follow the original lore. In the end it’s up to the director to make the last say. With a small budget it’s not like he can pull off a Sonic the Hedgehog movie incident and change the character or in this case the whole cast lineup. And this will result in costly reshoots and delays.

Honestly, I had doubts before I watched the film but after it ended, I immediately made plans to watch it again on my next available day off and get the Blu-Ray on release. Yes; I enjoyed it. And no one shall tell me to say that it sucks…when they never even watched it themselves.… Expand

Just watched this dumpster fire last night. The Easter eggs were a cool idea. But if you are a fan of Resident Evil in any way avoid this movie like the plague. I made an account to review this movie it was that bad.
