Don't watch this total garbage!! Extremely predictable. Characters don't have chemistry. Lots of parts don't make sense, for instance a guy is prison with a zombie, knows Umbrella secrets and doesn't shoot zombie. All game characters don't fit their characters. Leon is a weak and goofy character. Wesker is has no character development and is also goofy. Chris lacks courage and Claire is uninspired. Also characters make stupid decisions. Raccoon City is NOT a City more like a small town. Movie is joke. CG is bad. Classic Resident Evil movies are far better

This movie ruined my life, Leon And Lisa Trevor parts were embarrassing. Cast was completely miscast and the story was just terrible. I feel like the trucker guy from RE2 had a bigger role in this movie than most of the main characters. This movie made me dislike the resident evil franchise less it's that bad. Don't waste your hard earned money on this trash.

The Good: As a movie, it was fun in some parts. Didnt mind the scenario based two game into one movie. A lot of amazing references to the games (def a calling card to the fans). Casting was pretty good for the parts they played I think; mostly. The Bad: As a huge Resident Evil fan, this was so painful. They ruined Leon - completely. Some characters have no depth. William Birkins transformation now looks like a Decepticon at one point. So, many great references and connections, and yet a lack of story between them. Also, great actors - all around, yet they felt stiff and forced. Man, I was waiting for this movie. And it was not what I wanted. A lot people complain about the CGI with this one - it didnt bother me personally, but is noticeable.
