Resident Evil

Much like some others, my previous review got removed as some clearly got triggered, despite adhering to community guidelines. Thankfully this show got cancelled due to the consensus that this a simply an objectively low quality production.

The intellectual property was already exhausted due to the number of movies in the franchise starring Milla Jovovich. The previous movies declined in quality by the end and than failing yet again to revive it.

There's nothing redeemable about this show, clearly. As it is pretty much a self own. It is badly written, casted and actors look like the phoned it in, other than the teen sisters who were over dramatic. I used to like Resident Evil quite a bit, but this another example that they should just leave some intellectual property alone.

The only thing this show has in common with the games is the name... this a crappy cash grab to lure fans of the game like me in.

This show has more of a mad max/day of the dead franchise feel than anything to do with the resident evil games.

After 26 years since the first game came out hollyood still can not get this franchise right. Why is it so hard when there are so many great stories from the game! Just follow one of them...geez.

Netflix seems incapable of making anything decent lately and no wonder people are cancelling their subscriptions in droves.. stranger things seems to be the only thing decent on there these days.

This show was cancelled by Netflix after 1 season. No surprise at all... what an awful show. This show might have done immense damage to the franchise. Not a single episode was good enough to keep interest in the show. Better save yourself some time and not watch it.

Script, acting, direction everything sucks. What a waste of subscribers' money. They could have spent all this money on some better show and material. This show just is t Resident Evil material.

Bottom line: waste of money and time. Resident Evil Franchise down the drain... some consolation is that Netflix realize this crap and did not commit to make another painful and wasteful season.

Besides some famous name dropping there is really nothing Resident Evils about this. Incomprehensible that they can turn a horror genre into teenagers high school drama show. Typical again that netflix is killing this series. How hard can it be to just stick to the game characters something that viewers love to see reflected in the series. The high Woke score is also really something to get sick of.

Pain and effort to be able to see 3 episodes. Happy and excellent choice that it has been cancelled. Against my better judgement, I hope that Netflix will stop injecting their own agenda into series because as we have seen before, that just doesn't work.

I've watched the first two episodes (so you thankfully don't have to) & can safely say - with a certain degree of confidence - you should simply add this show to the accumulating list of other substandard Netflix series which have already been consigned to history & forgotten by audiences; stuff like "Cursed" & "The Irregulars" etc. Commissioned by the streaming service (clearly hoping to lazily capitalise off of the recognisable brand by sheer association) to just fill their release slots & keep subscribers subscribed, in order to view something - ANYTHING - & their money rolling in every month. The quality obviously wasn't even considered before the season went in to production. It's all about profit.

This approach to content creation is painfully apparent moreso here than in most cases, in an egregiously unimaginative, badly written, clichéd & hammy first season, which acts as yet another sub-par installment to the franchise & a waste of the source material. A real shame, as this could've been a great sci-fi / horror series but alas, the potential's squandered. Can't say I'm enthused about continuing any further.
