Resident Evil

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.

That should be the title of the show because it has nothing to do with resident evil.

Unlike a lot of the reviewers here, I did not watch this with any expectation of resemblance of games or the original movies. I was just looking for good entertainment. Unfortunately, I was disappointed.

First of all, the teenage drama, and my god is the drama bad! After couple of episodes, I was skipping every scene with the teenagers in it. Secondly, the ending is just disastrous. I would have probably given this a 5 star but the last 2 episodes are so bad that they probably average a 2.

I should have checked the ratings before I dove into this one but the stupid "No. 1 in the US" for a few days now got me. Thought it must be good. Unfortunately, it is not. Save your time and don't watch this.

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.

I've been a fan of all things Resident Evil for a long time, but aren't one of those people who rate things badly because something strays too far from the games or the originals or anything like that. I'm usually down for new things and get excited for new storylines and characters.

Infinite Darkness was fine-ish and I actually enjoyed Welcome to Raccoon City, but this new series makes for some tough watching. It seems more like a teenage drama than anything else so far and it hasn't grasped me four episodes in.

Lance Reddick has been the show's saving grace so far, but that's totally subjective because I think he's great in everything.

I'm going to finish the series because I've made it this far and although I'm not too hopeful, I'm gonna keep my fingers crossed.
