I agree with ness.Dunno why, but I like these Resident Evil films. Looking forward to this one as well
I thought of most of that as well. I'll probably still watch it just because I happen to like the series (Apocalypse was awesome).There is so much fanservice and winks to videogames as well as other films, this can't possibly go right. Here's what I saw;
1.) Super Wesker. Wesker had a total screentime of 4 minutes in all 3 movies. He shouldn't be in this. Also, throwing your glasses at the camera? Taken straight from Resident Evil 5.
2.) Throwing shurikens at the screen in slow motion? Alien vs Predator did that, with the exact same camera angle.
3.) Hordes of non-zombies with Predator-mouths? Come on. The scene where the guy shows off his monster-jaws is exactly the same as the first Majini in ... you guessed it, Resident Evil 5.
4.) An Executioner? Really? Resident Evil 5.
5.) 1:29. The explosion with the valve getting thrown out. Taken straight from Resident Evil 2.
6.) 1:37. Slow motion, through a window, firing a weapon? Matrix Reloaded.
I usually enjoy these movies for their campiness but this is pushing it. I'm a Resident Evil fan since day 1 and I enjoyed the first 3 films for what they are, but even in the eye of a fan this is pushing it. They're just trying way too hard in my opinion.

First time a film takes references from a video game, the 16th in its series I might add, which has deviated so far from its roots that it's become unrecognizable.I lie this movie because of its references.
I mean, is the first time a video game movie takes real references from the game.
The majini, the executioner, Wesker... is all taken from the game, and I love that.
Also, I have to say Capcom liked, at least, the first movie. They added the lasers room in RE4 and in RE:UC.
Only thing I miss is Jill. I'd like to see her caught by Wesker, and with Super Powers, like in RE5. Super Jill vs Super Alice: ***** Fight!!!
