Viewer Reviews (TMDb)
This film is good, i really like the cast and the trame. This film have some problem in the second part of the film. The finale scene is bad. I can accepted that if you tell me there is going to be another movie. But this film is still good.
Zach Cregger takes Capcom's zombie-outbreak survival horror and does exactly what a video game adaptation should do: capture the *feeling* of the games instead of slavishly recreating cutscenes. Rather than shoehorning in Leon or Claire, he builds an original story around Bryan (…
Nick · 9/10RE? NO, a generic comedy horror. It's really hard to accept that 'comedy horror' genre is a thing, like this one. A Uber courier (with no car) sets out to make a delivery-sparking uproarious laughter in what looks like a festival of stupidity-and ends up dead. RE (game saga) cent…
The best kind of survival horror knows that darkness is not merely a lack of light—it is a promise that something is waiting just beyond it. That instinct serves *Resident Evil* remarkably well, delivering a film that finally understands the eerie isolation and creeping dread tha…

CinemaSerf · 7/10As a adaptation of the Resident Evil franchise, this is really, really good. It beats the last movie, Welcome to Raccoon City, and is far more in line with the feeling of playing a Resident Evil game. The main protagonist isn't a skilled operative or military, he's just a guy who…

Manuel São Bento · 7/10The 8th live action film of the Resident Evil series serves as a reboot by director Zach Cregger, the man behind the film, Weapons. This film plots a medical courier who must fight through an outbreak of infected monsters in a fictional town of Raccoon City. Ultimately, at the en…
Ryan Ting · 9/10Resident Evil 2026 discards survival horror to deliver an relentless comedy special masquerading as an apocalyptic outbreak. Director Zach Cregger trades genuine dread for punchlines, turning bio-weapon chaos into an arena for cynical, rapid-fire banter. Instead of claustrophobic…

From the trailer's comments
The bullets being in random desk drawer in a completely different room on a different floor from where he found the shotgun is classic Resident Evil.
@sunflowersunset4806 · 59896 likesHim searching for bullets is the most Resident Evil thing ever 😭
@causeimbatman8974 · 88703 likesHe's not acting like a Resident Evil protagonist, he's acting like a Resident Evil PLAYER. Which is a 1000 times better.
@elpantriste5895 · 11233 likesJust imagine, Zach's future movies are going to say from the director of Barbarian, Weapons, and Resident Evil. What a resume.
@SoCalPeteyPablo · 362 likesAll he had to do was open a suitcase to organize his inventory, the zombies would wait
@YourMajestyGames · 19773 likesHe's walking like someone who's about to solve three puzzles before finding the doorknob.
@DragoPlays_YT · 50232 likesHim finding shotgun shells and then immediately seeing a zombie and getting jumpscared by a phone is the most resident evil thing.
