Sebastian Zavala Kahn Más Gamers It transforms its heroes into walking stereotypes, sexist caricatures, or both. [Full review in Spanish] Rated: 1/5 Jul 28, 2018 Full Review Jonathan Barkan Dread Central Simply put, it's an absolute blast and I can't wait for more! Rated: 4/5 Jan 24, 2018 Full Review Jeffrey Lyles Lyles' Movie Files Resident Evil Vendetta takes the best aspects of the video game high points and makes an amazingly intense and action-packed thrill ride. Rated: 9.5/10 Dec 22, 2017 Full Review Blair Marnell IGN Movies The occasionally cool-looking moments aren't enough to make up for the tedious pace and horrible script. The voice actors did the best that they could with the material, but there's no vaccine for this movie. Rated: 4.5/10 Jun 29, 2017 Full Review Dave Trumbore Collider It's worth a watch for sure, but it's also certain to be appreciated by fans of the franchise moreso than others. Rated: 3/5 Jun 19, 2017 Full Review Jordan Farley Total Film The anime-inspired action is intermittently entertaining, but story, voice acting and animation are dead rubbish. Rated: 2/5 Jun 13, 2017 Full Review Read all reviews

Romas M Greetings from Lithuania. So the main reason of why this movie was made in a first place i think is that they needed to fill a gap for these Resident Evil characters, since they didn't appear in games since Resident Evil 6 - so the players won't forget these characters, because they will eventually return in this game series, although 7th part took a different direction - they will return, mark my word. "Resident Evil: Vendetta" (2017) is an animated film made basically to the die hard Resident Evil games fans. If you are not in it and you don't know the characters very well, you can safely skip this movie. And here lies the main reason of why this movie kinda fail in my opinion - i have played every Resident Evil game ever, and one should really be into universe to enjoy "Resident Evil: Vendetta". Characters are simple and basic - they more like caricatures and have very simple personalities. They lack any kind of feelings, except of those written in a very generic way. This movie lacks any kind of suspense, when you know non of our main heroes won't die - ever. The script and the whole story of "Resident Evil: Vendetta" is as predictable and generic as you could possibly imagine. Why couldn't screenwriters attempt to make it somehow more original, throw in some real humor, maybe even some love story between some of characters - they are just soooo generic. And while the movie does look kinda stunningly good and i did kinda enjoyed while it lasted, i just can't recommend it if you are not a fan of VG because if you will skip it you won't miss anything at all and if you do watch it you will forget it in a blink of an eye. The story here is more then generic and predictable - you have already seen it in hundreds of movies and video games, done with more originality. All in all this is a very good looking but unfortunately highly generic and predictable film that lacks any kind of originality or excitement. I enjoyed it only because of video games. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 10/02/25 Full Review Chris O Don't know why so many bad review, it's really good and the action is great! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 09/28/25 Full Review LilG B Another CGI Resident Evil film. I prefer them over the live adaptations, at least they're about the games & characters. It again stars Chris & Leon, the heroes of Resident evil. The plot, action & villains are decent, very cheesy & very much like the PS1 era games. It was good to see zombies again , there were also references to the las Plagas from 4 & 6 with the gas turning people into zombies Its a shame Rebecca didn't do much, ended up being the damsel in distress figure similar to Claire in the other CGI films. Funniest part was when Chris was chasing Glenn Arias around the rooftop with the gunplay & martial arts. Arias monster design was a nice homage to the Tyrant bosses from the games. Very enjoyable & not written by Paul Anderson. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/23/25 Full Review Audience Member My favorite out of the original Three. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 12/02/24 Full Review Tera S This movie is great, along with the rest of them. It's not horror, Resident Evil never really was despite ignorant American title and rating systems. It's a better story than the Americans came up with in the live action movies, and I'd like to point out to to one of the reviewers, Hollywood didn't have a hand in the creation of these movies. CAPCOM made these movies. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/17/24 Full Review Alexandru B Everything about this movie was incredible. Leon is a badass, The animations was awesome, the story was berfect and the final fight was the absolute best part. The movie deserves more love than Damnation Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/07/24 Full Review Read all reviews
