Respect the attempt to try and bring back the Silent Hill (2006) era of horror videogame adaptation (all confusing lore mystery, creepy atmosphere, gnarly violence, and wonky CG) and this Roberts guy knows how to compose a widescreen frame (nice slow zooms and split diopters as well) but man the modern franchise filmmaking writing and CW actors do their best to derail anything nice you might be thinking about this for a few seconds. The kind of movie where a character goes "Hi Leon Kennedy I'm Jill Valentine." and the other one goes "Hi Jill Valentine, I'm Leon Kennedy." Even has a Marvel post-credits scene lol.
Despicable in almost every way. It's a shame because you can tell the actors are trying their best.
Lol, this thing fucking loooooooves letting you know that it's set in 1998. They wink at the camera so fucking hard by verbally or visually shoving 90s things down your throat like: Blockbuster, chatrooms, Planet Hollywood, a character playing snake on an absolute fucking brick of a cellphone, a character listening to a walkman that's blaring the song "Crush" by Jennifer Paige (great moment tho), music from The Cardigans, a VHS tape that when played contains some wild tracking, a pager, a palm pilot and definitely some more 90s shit that I can't really recall right now. Resident Evil: Welcome To Raccoon City is a decent attempt at capturing the essence of RE1 & RE2, the two games that are mish-mashed…

Not as bad as I feared, but this struggles to get past the hurdle of attempting to adapt Resident Evil 1 *and* 2. Too much character set-up and structural ambition for a low-budget Screen Gems production that deserved to be a 75 minute romp through the Spencer mansion. Johannes Roberts, of The Strangers: Prey at Night fame, brings along his trademark slow zooms, John Carpenter styling, and pop ballads to a messy hodgepodge of references and cameos. There's a few decent moments here, and a desperate zombie attack entirely lit by gunfire and a lighter is the clear formal standout. If the PWSA series gleefully disregarded so much of the series mythology, Welcome to Raccoon City functions like a checklist for the fans.
Resident Evil has officially seen its live action franchise rebooted this week, and holy fvcking shit was it a great time. Odds have been stacked against Welcome to Raccoon City since its conception, and with my small knowledge of the games, I think it looks pretty faithful. Much greater atmosphere and scares than the previous set of action movies, and a better cast, too.
Robbie Amell gave me everything I needed as a Chris Redfield main, and Kaya Scodelario, Hannah John-Kamen, Tom Hopper, and others round out the cast well. Avan Jogia's Leon Kennedy is going to be divisive as hell, but every scene that he was in felt elevated, and there's no denying he fits that role perfectly. This is…
I’ve been talking to Cam in a chat room and just read this:
It’s in the theatre’s Claire. It’s in the freaking theaters. Um, this whole cinema’s been put to sleep... slowly via mind-numbing scene after mind-numbing scene.. and, uh, people are going catatonic.
You see, Sony just thought that they could whip up a reboot and make some quick cash with a dull repetitive script involving a bunch of unremarkable people shooting boring zombie after boring zombie until the audience experiences severe brain rot…
And they almost did it, but a couple minutes ago they had a little incident and I’m not talking about a little bad acting… I’m talking about an unbelievably lackluster ending…. Like, Crystal Skull bad,…

Having not seen any of the Resident Evil movies or played either of the first two games, I obviously can only review this as a standalone film rather than as one compared to the rest of the franchise. I remember enjoying Johannes Roberts’ 47 Meters Down but I wonder if it would hold up. Roberts’ Welcome to Raccoon City was a generic, yet surprisingly fun little horror movie with a lot of the characteristics of a B movie.
It’s funny to compare it to B movies though considering the $40 million budget but it definitely felt like one. The acting was inconsistently good but the main crew luckily was decent enough. The antagonist (Neal McDonough) was over the top…
Claire looking at Leon for being consistently pathetic was my mood with this movie as a whole. I do believe in Claire Redfield supremacy though.
