Resident why?
2 October 2023
Nothing about this movie except the name resembles Resident Evil.

You get a little of a mediocre acting, a bad casting , a little below average of a story, a few good creepy moments, a little mix from games 1 and 2 , a little bit out of the first and second installment (especially the mansion and police station scenes) of the original RE franchise with Milla and a little of woke culture and there you have it. A bad movie not worth to watch. That was not RE, these were not Clair and Chris Redfield, that was not Lion , nor that was Valentine nor that was Wesker. What an absolute mess.

I can only ask "Why?" when I consider the huge potential of the source material. This could have actually been a really nice first film of what appears to be an effort to reboot the franchise. Instead you get this thing that everyone hates.

When are they gonna finally learn ? You need to respect the source material, respect the characters' legacy and keep it simple. No need for small time creativity when that creativity tramples everything big about the story the audience loves.

If you want to be creative write a decent story with the classic characters or create something new entirely. Don't try to appropriate an already successful story's legacy with cheap efforts to provoke , appear original and sell your woke propaganda. Or do so, but don't expect a great result.
