Lance reddick is phenomenal, the back story serves as a driving force for the protagonist and the action scenes are well executed.

Although it would have been nice to see more familiar characters I really enjoyed the series. It was a good gory time and had some nice Easter eggs.

Decent and enjoyable on it's own as a post apocalyptic show, but not really as a Resident Evil adaption. Only character fans of the game will recognize on the show is white supremacist Albert Wesker, who for some reason is black now?

It's also way too modernized to fit in with the Resident Evil universe, which i'm sure other fans have already pointed out.… Expand

I thought the acting and story was compelling. I haven’t played the games much before though (I was too scared after a dog jumped out at me!) but I do know a small amount about the lore so many be that’s why I enjoyed it and others didn’t?

Phenomenal zombie show. It's a breath of fresh air for the series and I think it should be celebrated for using the Resident Evil assests in a unique way.

As a classic Resident Evil movie it fails. Big time.

However, as a resident evil reboot. Re-written story with same characters names as an Easter egg is really good (so far)… Expand

Interesting new story taking place in the Resident Evil universe. Don't expect this to be a adaption of the games. It is not. There are references to the games, but it's its own thing.

Apart from some CGI artifacts, it's technically well made with an amazing visual style. The universe deviates from the original universe and the story writing has some flaws and logic errors, but sophisticated storytelling is not what you would expect of RE (or the zombie horror genre in general) anyway. If you're grown up enough to live in the year 2022 and not limited to the original RE universe, it's far better than the amount of 0 reviews might suggest. On the contrary, the occurrence of discriminated groups and contemporary topics do not play a big role in the story, therefor it does not even make sense as a point of valid criticism with so many other aspects. Yet, the pure visibility alone is an enormous help for the affected people.… Expand

The story starts in aThis popular video game has spawned numerous films and even a previous TV series, but since I've never participated in the game, so I can't address this show's veracity. I can say that it's an uneven thrill ride. The story starts in a futuristic timeline, where our heroine endures a gauntlet of lethal threats. Suddenly, things flash back to present day, when she and her sister are coping with their teen life before dealing with the more deadly future. There are giant killer animals, raging "zombies," lots of meanies, dark passages and hostile locations. Through it all are some great action sequences, but there are also extended discussions about the world that drag things down. This could have been tighter, but there's still plenty of gory outrageousness to keep the franchise pumping. (8 one-hour eps)… Expand

I think alot of people are too fixated on the games story and keep comparing it. But when has any RE film adaption been true to the games, it hasnt.

But when has any RE film adaption been true to the games, it hasnt. Is it a good series in its own right though, I believe it is. Zombies and the bio engineered monsters that you see are amazingly well done. Great story following the twins and wesker's and kept me hooked from start to finish. I do think alot of people are being far too critical and have maybe gotten used to the zombie genre so no longer find it scary or horror, well I do. I have been waiting for a new great series and this is it! I'm hooked and can't wait for season 2. Forget the story from the games and don't be a negative Andy and just enjoy a great show for what it is. And what it is, is amazing! It has everything and can only get better with more episodes.… Expand

from a compelling narative to an interesting plot and staying without straying off the lore of the source material.
