I'm not at all against the idea that an established franchise, in this case, that of such a famous videogame, can be reimagined, after all, an adaptation doesn't mean it has to be an exact replica of the source material, different things canI'm not at all against the idea that an established franchise, in this case, that of such a famous videogame, can be reimagined, after all, an adaptation doesn't mean it has to be an exact replica of the source material, different things can be tried with it.

With the release of Resident Evil: Welcome to Raccoon City, it was more than obvious that Netflix wasn't going to do the same. But I also never anticipated they would take the route they did.

Because this show is many, many things, but it's definitely not Resident Evil.
You can take liberties with the source material, but what they did was basically spit on that source material.

The script is an abysmal. There's just terrible dialogue all around.
The characters are soporific. The narrative structure is a goddamned mess, because the 8 long episodes just jump from the past to the future constantly, which shreds any attempt at cohesion.

I don't think this series is going to get a second season. It doesn't deserve it in my opinion, and this for the simple reason that these 8 episodes gave me no reason to believe I wanted to keep watching this.
I finished it because I don't left things unfinished, but in all honesty, this was a brutal disappointment, one of the worst series Netflix has ever produced and they are notorious for producing garbage. Be warned.

I feel like Resident evil (2022) show was going to be decent or good, going into it, after watching 2 episodes I feel like is it worth watching the rest of it? the dialog is so painful not great nor good, I feel like it is a waste of time toI feel like Resident evil (2022) show was going to be decent or good, going into it, after watching 2 episodes I feel like is it worth watching the rest of it? the dialog is so painful not great nor good, I feel like it is a waste of time to watch, now on to the zombies super geriatric, now onto the characters, super plain at its worst moments and not great at it's best moments Also, it feels like the characters was just throwing in with nothing to relate to them, I will give it a 5/10 until I finish the rest of the episodes.
