Yeah. I mean, other than following the classical Resident Evil formula of starting as relatively grounded horror and gradually escalating into grotesque sci-fi insanity; featuring a bioweapon outbreak as the catalyst; taking place in Raccoon City; culminating in a secret laboratory; featuring zombies, infected dogs, and increasingly bizarre mutant creatures; having its protagonist start with a basic handgun and progressively acquire bigger and more ridiculous weapons; forcing him to scavenge for ammunition and conserve what little he has; making him rummage through drawers for supplies; confronting him with inexplicably elaborate locks; including typewriters, First-Aid Spray, Green Herbs, and other direct references to game items; occasionally switching into first-person and over-the-shoulder perspectives that mimic the games; sending him through rural environments, city streets, underground areas, a hospital, and finally a laboratory; having Umbrella scientists fucking around with biological weapons; and ultimately transforming its protagonist into a giant Bio-weapon that looks exactly like something you’d fight at the end of a Resident Evil game . . .
Yeah, other than all that, it barely had anything to do with the fucking games.
Resident Evil Movie Review
The words Raccoon City and Umbrella Corporation are said a few times during the movie and they are the only things that suggest its stated source material.
Throwing in random visual references to a Typewriter, First Aid Sprays and Padlocks does not make a Resident Evil movie.
What you get instead is a body horror movie featuring mutants out of an entirely different franchise, a nonsensical setting and a host of "characters" that make such bafflingly stupid decisions, that you feel nothing when they inevitably get killed by their own stupidity.
All wrapped up with frequent poor attempts at humour and an ending that's so bizarre and out of place, even in this nonsense movie, that you end up wondering what even was the point of following this character's journey.
If you think that this is a good Resident Evil adaptation or even a good video game adaptation.
Then you need to actually play Resident Evil and realise that this movie isn't even attempting to be Resident Evil or any kind of video game movie.
