Resident Evil Reviews

Wow. I’ve lived through so many bad Resident Evil films just so experience this one. Sure, Leon and Jill and Barry and Wesker are not in this but they don’t need to be. It captures the feeling of resident evil, telling a story that fits perfectly in its universe. Plus it’s funny. Really funny. I trust anything Zach does. Go see this. It’s amazing.

Soooooooooooo crazy good, had a blast watching this in theaters for my birthday!

Was worried about how they would use the IP but this movie blew away my expectations and then some. Im glad it was an original story and they didnt copy stuff from the games 1 to 1. The atmosphere and the build ups are done perfectly as well. Capcom give this man another go plz

IM CRYIIINGGG THAT WAS SO FUNNY AND SO GOOD. was jumping like crazy at all those jumpscares but Bryan was so funny 😭

The amount of times he said «hello», like «hello, are you dumb?» Also, RUN FOR FCK SAKE!

This movie had me STRESSING. Love the jump scares.

I’m kinda disappointed how this movie ended. He did all that for nothing

Dude Zach Cregger just doesn’t miss. I don’t know much about resident evil but I do know this movie goes unbelievably hard. I love how tight and focused it is on one regular guys survival from beginning to end. Every sequence is super creative and effective. Austin Abram’s performance makes for a great POV character too. He’s funny but not too over the top. I also love how it somehow gives the feeling of playing a survival video game while being a great movie at the same time. Cregger is 3/3 now.
8.5/10

“God damn it. I fucking suck at guns.”

Zach Cregger’s Resident Evil adaptation is without a doubt the best movie adaptation of a gamer ever, though that is no high bar, it’s still a feat worth commending.

Resident Evil is a must watch in the cinema, it’s terrific and terrifyingly comedic, there’s not a single dull moment and does not outstay its welcome one bit. I recommend this AND ONLY THIS for video game movies, as it’s a thrillingly fun ride made for both die-hards and casuals, without a doubt the gold standard of video game movies.

1st Act 9.5/10 (The best part of the movie without a doubt.)

2nd Act 9.2/10 (Amazing moments, but pales in comparison to the first.)

3rd Act 8.7/10 (Lacklustre final act but then again, fitting.)

Plot 9.7/10 (The adaptation of the source is so fucking good I’m so glad it got the respect it deserves.)

Soundtrack/Score 8.6/10 (Practically nothing new to bring but still good within the movie.)

Acting 9.6/10 (Austin Abrams and Paul Walter Houser are so fucking good in this.)

Pacing 9.3/10 (Perfect for what it is, just no edge of the seat stuff.)

Cinematography 9.5/10 (RACCON CITY IS WINTER FUCK YES.)

Character Development 9.3/10 (Bryan is so fucking funny, really makes you care.)

Writing 9.6/10 (So fucking funny at times gotta give props.)

Ending 8.5/10 (A bit lacklustre but nonetheless satisfying.)

Direction 9.7/10 (Unpredictable and knows his shit.)

Overall
111.2/120
9.1/10

YESSSSSSSSSSSS

Not even a die hard Resident Evil fan but I loved this 🔥 I’ve only played Resident Evil 2 and seen the Netflix Resident Evil show that came out a little while back. Loved the game, have no clue what others think of it. Enjoyed the show, have no clue what people think of that either 😅

I’ve seen people loving this one, and it’s true. This is truly a great piece of work by Cregger. I didn’t like Weapons as much as I thought I would, especially given the amount of hype that was built up around that film. So this one, I went in as soon as I could and it was well worth it. Only 1.5hrs and it’s honestly the perfect runtime. Nothing needed to be longer or shorter, it was just right.

The main lead did a perfect job mixing the serious tone with the comedic one. The scares were real, only 2 of them actually got me good but man were they all well done. This has one of my favorite “zombie” scenes now, iykyk 👀

Highly recommend if you’re a fan of the RE franchise or if you just love “Zombie” content, especially the fast and crazy ones. More of a virus theme but zombie’s easier to explain 😂

Will be seeing this again. Also, if you get a chance to see it in IMAX, it’s so worth it 😮‍💨

So much build up for a wack ending don’t care what anyone says I’ve played most of the games and I liked the little things the represented it in the film, but personally of an ending it is weak instantly the whole film becomes sloppy, good cinematic work though

I love cregger but I just might be all cregged out after this

Ir was really good I just hate horror movies

Honestly really freaking entertaining and funny from the beginning to the end. I would recommend you watch this in theaters. 9/10

The most normal day working as a delivery guy

95/200 • 7/10 i really like it lol, the ending was so disappointing though so i think it’d put me off watching it again. Austin did really good though and the range of mutations was pretty decent.

the more i think about this movie the more i love it. cregger really found the perfect balance between tense, funny and tragic with this one.

i know all the criticism made cregger say he won’t make another one, but i truly hope he changes his mind after all the love it’s been getting

he’s soo funny 😭😂 swearing n running 99% of the time

it didn’t have that classic campy matrix feel of the other ones, but it was SOOO good. the acting was great (even though i’m not a fan of austin abrams himself 🙄), there was a lot of humor, the kills were awesome, and the ending stayed true to the RE vibe

great movie even though the MC is a bit dumb and sometimes I was just begging him to GOOOOOOO!! But it rly felt like I was watching a gameplay lol.

Zach Cregger is brilliant I loved this movie so much had such a great time watching it in the theater! 1000/10
