Nishi Reviews: Resident Evil Degeneration
0Reading out my written review for Resident Evil Degeneration
Written Review:
This is Capcom’s first attempt at a full CG only movie, and it’s not too bad. This film has some cliché parts, but since it’s a resident evil film you kind of look over it. This movie ties in Resident evil 2/3(What happens in the aftermath of raccoon) and Resident evil Code veronica/4 (Continuing the story of Claire and Leon) and leads up to the events in Resident Evil 5. I think this is pretty cool how they tie these stories in with the franchise, hell it even slightly ties in with the movies (Claire and raccoon city).
The story is ok, but the whole “screaming girl” has been old for years now, and got annoying during this film. The coolest parts are the tie in with the series, the Zombies, and the details of the guns. Not much really shines during the story, the dramatic events fail, and the only other movie that has more staring than this is Twilight. I mean how many movies have to do the pull away when someone is getting attacked by a zombie before they realize it got old years ago.
The graphics are pretty good, especially for a CG only movie. While it’s not good as Resident Evil 5, the guns look great, and the people look semi real. Another part that looks good is when they shoot the zombies and the way they die is pretty detailed. The buildings do look pretty cool, and kind of has its own unique look to them.
The acting is pretty good, and I believe they used the same voice actors for Claire and Leon that worked on the previous games. Everyone else, eh they are sub-par, and it feels like they are reading it off a script. I even think one of the voice actors in this movie also voiced a character in Resident Evil 5.
The special features are pretty cool, with about thirty minutes of behind the scenes footage and talking about this film in the franchise of Resident Evil. While it’s all Japanese dubbed, it’s watchable with subtitles and you really don’t notice it. The “Bloopers” are pretty entertaining and some of them actually made me laugh. They provide character profiles, but it’s just 1-2 paragraph’s about the characters and not like a timeline of what they have been in.
Overall I say to buy this if you’re a fan of the Resident Evil franchise; Especially 5, since I believe what happens in this movie is what Chris talks about in the opening credits.
