4/5

...the movie also proves to be a giddy, playful horror-comedy, judged exactly right: skewed, nasty, actually funny.

4/5

Fleshed out with elaborately vile body horror whose lineage passes through the source content and back to John Carpenter’s The Thing, Cregger’s shameless romp ... feels like the best Resident Evil film in the franchise’s long history.

3/4

Zach Cregger’s reboot treats the games as a polite suggestion rather than a direct guidebook.

85/100

Resident Evil comes out swinging and never stops, building in intensity from its opening scenes to its dread-soaked first encounter in the woods to a wild third act that pushes the movie into over-the-top territory.

...damn if Zach Cregger has not only resuscitated the franchise, he's completely remade it, albeit with bits and pieces we've seen before...The film's biggest surprise may be just how funny it is, an unqualified blast.
