Lumsdal Good , But It Is Overrated By Some
BroadcastChic Excellent, a Must See
Baseshment I like movies that are aware of what they are selling... without [any] greater aspirations than to make people laugh and that's it.
Myron Clemons A film of deceptively outspoken contemporary relevance, this is cinema at its most alert, alarming and alive.
SnoopyStyle US secret agent Leon S. Kennedy infiltrates a former Soviet republic to confirm Bio Organic Weapons being used in their civil war. He ignores orders to retreat. He is attacked by monsters, captured by rebels and even battles giants.After a short exposition, the movie turns into an action thriller. It's almost non-stop. It's a fully computer animated movie. The trick of CGI is the expressiveness of the human faces. This suffers a little from dead-eye syndrome which is inferior to the facial work of the best modern motion capture. It makes the human characters less compelling than they should be. The lickers have great quickness and they are quite scary. The other creatures are not as great. The story is basically an excuse for the action. This is fine for the video game fans but it isn't that good as an actual movie.
dannyboymw By itself, this is a great movie - and a real tear jerker. The characters are well developed and you cry when things do not work out for everyone. When the credits started to roll I was thinking how great of a film this was, but as I began thinking about it, I started to change my mind. Again, it is - objectively - very good, but it is not a Resident Evil movie (to me, at least). The only two things holding it on to the franchise are the characters (Leon and Ada). First of all, there isn't even a proper virus - it was a serum that allows humans to control the infected while slowly transforming them into something completely different. In addition to that, everything was political, there was no corrupt company CEO or rogue scientist, or anything like that; and what was up with turning that certain zombie into the good guys? Don't get me wrong, I thought it was an interesting twist, and was crying when the pre-transformed cyborg things were crushing their skulls. I just feel like the story deviated too much from the source material to be considered a proper Resident Evil movie. Of course, I may be completely off; after all, the production company was Capcom - maybe the change of direction was deliberate and we can expect something new in future projects. Also, I am speaking as a person who has only seen the movies and played 2 and a half campaigns on RE 6.
Abhishek Vyas Right from the start of the movie i felt very good because of the beauty of Animation, for some time i thought i am in game and i don't have to press the analog and rest of the keys. Eda Wang and Leon are too stylish and there one liners are simply awesome. The level of Animation and its action sequences are worth watchable and enjoyable. Truly this ride must not be missed by those who love animation. The climax fight of the movie specially when Leon fights those monsters and blow the head of one of them by a tank was simply awesome. Presidents fight with Eda Wang is a fight to remember or Leon jumping from one blocks to another in order to save himself from those monsters was simply "thrilling". I am certainly looking for its next part to come as soon as possible. Finally as a conclusion i can say its a must watch action thriller with all the elements of entertainment in it.
mergatroid-1 I have not played any of the Resident Evil games, but am a fan of the movie series.This movie apparently takes place in the game universe. I had purchased the first Resident Evil animation, but have not watched it in a while.This movie stands quite well on its own. The plot is fairly straight forward. Mr cool guy spy had been ordered away from his vacation to check out a problem regarding prisoners of war in a war torn former soviet country. It turns out they were turned into BOWs (Bio Organic Weapons). These are basically humans that have been mutated by a weaponized virus into deadly creatures controlled by whoever has been infected with the master form of the virus.The country is undergoing a revolution, and the rebels have resorted to using the BOWs against the army. Our hero tries to survive and fight until he can figure out who's controlling the BOWs, and discovers the rebels are not the only ones with BOWs, and there is in fact a much deadlier version right under his very nose.Action packed all the way through. The animation is better than the first animated movie and the story and acting are great. I enjoyed every minute of it, and I think animation, horror and/or zombie fans will enjoy it too.
