I love this movie. The first two loosely follow the events in the games, then the series gets wild with the third movie onward, as the movies basically just borrow characters and creatures from the games while doing their own thing with the Alice (Milla Jovovich) storyline. It's a ridiculous, over-the-top action horror series that's got a lot of hits and more than a few misses, but I respect how Anderson & Co. swing for the fences creatively. These movies are a wild ride!

[@Ni-boo]

Fast & Furious for zombie fans haha

[@Bane2Face]

Agreed

[@ryant7951]

Ngl after seeing this movie as a kid that’s when my childhood crushing started for Michelle Rodriguez 😂

[@mars-jr5uu]

Hii😊

[@RetroRobotRadio]

The people who made the video game were afraid that the movie would give away the plot of the game so they asked him to come up with something original but set in the same sort of world.

[@sephjnr]

The commentary track on this is a riot - most of the principal cast shooting the shit and being goofy.

[@ulfgard4734]

That's my favorite kind of cast commentary. Thanks for letting me know. I've always meant to pick this one up instead of renting it (or streaming these days) so I'll make a point to grab it next time I see it in the bargain bin.

[@JT-cx2ev]

​@@ulfgard4734the second movie has a fun commentary too, there's a clip on KZbin kzbin.info/www/bejne/gWS6i6qnoayejdksi=oDkDRXjSK0q5wFvo

[@Isuukuu]

Forgot my man Mark Anthony was in this, James Purefoy is a legend!

[@Cifer77]

This is still one of the best video game adaptations, not a perfect movie, but damn fun.

[@reddwarf9422]

I know! I thought it captured the atmosphere of the game soooo well.

[@brucewayne33497]

The ending of this movie reminds me so much of 28 Days Later when Jim wakes up in the Hospital and The Walking Dead When Rick Grimes wakes up in the Hospital

[@Lovegame18]

This series growing up was one of my favorites. Watched it so many times. It's a crime what they did to Michelle's character, but I'm still glad we got her while we could.

[@olov244]

the others are ok, some better than others, people hate on them because they go away from the video game script but they do try and tie in some aspects. worth a watch, will only watch some once though

[@maximillianosaben]

The stupidest thing about that awesomely ludicrous laser scene is that there is a foot of space at either end of the hall where the laser doesn’t touch…

[@psicogames5509]

Sooooo... They just had to run?

[@maximillianosaben]

Overall, they just had to go and stand still compactly.

[@richardhansen3703]

That's all good, if they only had time to strip down out of their gear and make themselves less than a foot thick.🤣

[@alexanderwright1618]

20 years later dude is his Monday morning quarterback stuff like “i CoULdA fIgUrEd tHaT oUt! sO dUmB”. 🤣 Ok bro.

[@garypasquill2355]

Jason isaacs has been in nearly of Paul's films ,in this he's the voice delivering the opening monologue and the scientist at the end of the film.

[@mahega128]

These movies were my introduction to Resident Evil back when I was a little girl. I didn’t even know they were based on games. Now I have fallen into the RE game rabbit hole thanks to playing the RE2 remake last year. And now I’m currently playing the first RE remake which is a masterpiece. Even then, I hope REengine re-remakes that one as well. I love these movies even more now because now I get any references and get hyped when actual in-game characters show up. I didn’t even know how important they were. Won’t say who to avoid spoilers. Glad you’re reacting to these :)

[@ulfgard4734]

If you can force yourself past the graphics and bit of jank of the originals, I'd highly recommend either grabbing a copy or emulating them. No hate to the remakes, because I understand they've brought in a number of new fans and managed to ditch some of the more off-putting aspects of the originals, but the events differ quite significantly between the original versions and the remakes. If neither of those approaches are your speed, at least watch some LPs on KZbin since you get different story beats between the versions. Or don't. I suppose it all comes down to how captivating you find the universe.

[@dalevintage]

This is one of MY FAVORITE horror & zombie movies of all time! I don't care about the game factor, it's just a fun as hell movie!! ❤️

[@hissatsu4937]

Milla Jovovich money shot in the end was the best part of the movie. I also think she is pretty badass too honestly.

[@richardhansen3703]

I love, and own the entire series. I look forward to you reacting to the rest of them.

[@thomasgrimm1664]

I've loved the title theme since I first watched this movie 20 years ago. Such a great intro!

[@Playaplaya18]

I always loved these movies, the first 2 are my fav. There’s a surprising amount of detail to the first few. And it is a damn shame our girl Michelle died at the end, she deserved to stick around.

[@thomassantillan2194]

Speaking of Vasquez, if you haven't seen it, Near Dark is a real good movie. Stars Jeannette Goldstein (Vasquez) & Lance Henricksen (Bishop).

[@thejamppa]

Ah, Colin Salmon the other british actor, besides Sean Bean usually signed in film just to die. This film is so much fun. Maybe this is not that good as of film but it surely is entertaining. Milla Jovovich is absolutely stunner in red dress and high black boots.

[@PerfectHandProductions]

The best part of that movie is when she wakes up in the hospital at the end.

[@DaniBlazin]

Silent Hill movie is pretty good too and crazy scary AF!

[@CrownlessKing88]

I actually love these movies. Are they technically “good?” No, are they really accurate to the games? No. But they’re fun haha

[@linarandel]

Couldn’t agree more! 😄

[@BonnietheOutlaw7]

Lets go for the whole series!!

[@PrismaticController]

Hope you watch Underworld 03'. I feel you will certainly enjoy it.

[@cloudylungs]

Anyone who had a thing for Vasquez needs to go see John Connors stepmom in T 2. It'll change your mind

[@MrJholshouser41]

Trent Reznor with another banger soundtrack

[@benwollens7312]

It was actually Marilyn Manson who did the soundtrack. Interestingly enough, both Trent and Marilyn Manson worked together early on in Manson's career...

[@aldepal]

All of them are worth watching! Also check out DeathRace (2008) by same Director Starring Jason Statham and Natalie Martinez, an actress that will make you forget about Michelle Rodrigues. 😀

[@michaelbaumert9533]

I love all of the movies in this franchise but some don't. I think you should watch all of them though.

[@IV-Star_Dust-IV]

My OGs on ps1 was lady croft and resident evil sagas.. may we introduce 1st entry in one of the best sagas to date.....oh please tell us your doing the underworld saga ...bc reasons😅 let's get it !🎉

[@AM-ij4mv]

I love these movies it’s another perspective and I have fallen in love with Alice and her story it’s not exactly like the game but it definitely has hints of it

[@dabegmister]

I do love the soundtrack

[@Gun14Slinger]

Funny thing out of the whole movie, the lasers were what scared me the most growing up

[@ThatShyGuyMatt]

I love the movie series, got them all on bluray. ^_^ Love the games also of course.

[@garypasquill2355]

These films get so much shit, but if they were film accurate they would be boring.

[@kavid8120]

Idc what anyone says…this movie was amazing!!! So ahead of its time in so many areas !! 🔥🔥

[@chasedennis9859]

react and watch all the resident evil movies, let me tell you it maybe scary, but it's all about survival, staying alive, and found a group of survivors who ever lived...

[@williamsmith5340]

Awesome movie

[@deanlamb275]

This movie was a prequel to the video games.

[@terrenceellis9301]

I love all of the Resident Evil franchise even the animated ones too and even the newest ones but meanwhile can you please do the reaction of all the Shaft movies and even the ones with Samuel L. Jackson in them please let dedicate them to the Late Richard Roundtree peace ✌🏾✊🏾💪🏾

[@Vlad.Larionov]

Great reaction! It is very interesting to see your full detailed reaction to the films Star Wars Episode IV A New Hope and others. These are cool classic movies 👍🔥😃

[@TwitchCronos100]

The Resident Evil movies got a lot of crap, but I always loved them, so good.

[@Z3333RO]

The 2000-s techno and stuff tho! A masterpiece/

[@aronhalverson2115]

Considering Rain was bit like 4 times, im not at all surprised the anti-virus didnt work

[@oceankuhn7215]

Yep.....and how it was ago that she got bit. Tht T-virus had basically taken over by the time she got the cure. Now Cap, I was so upset about as they wouldn't have gotten out without him and he would've lived as it hadn't taken affect yet. So he at least would be alive if not for the licker.

[@danielkinn782]

Yeah bro! You've been watching some bangers. This is a fun movie with pretty good sequels! An even better game. Hope you watch them all!!

[@dalevintage]

For me after the sequel Apocalypse the series kinda dies a slow ridiculous death. But the first 2 movies are badass!

[@januzi2]

There's the movie "The Return of the Living Dead". Check it out sometime.

[@psicogames5509]

I love this first movie... The others, they are fun, but this one is a gem.

[@mahega128]

Ok but I wish they didn’t kill off Kaplan. After all that, he just had to die at the end :( He had the best arc. Even though he was scared, he still soldiered on to complete the mission. And I wish we got to have more time with the captain. Total badass. Laser room scene is iconic. Love that the RE4 game pays homage to it.

[@kristenboren7853]

have you ever thought about reacting to a show called yellowstone?? it's a really good show!!

[@alexandervelez9507]

the way i feel about this film is also the same way i feel about godzilla (1998). they’re both objectively fun movies but they stray so far away from the source material it would make sense that diehard fans would be disappointed.

[@jermainemartinez8282]

Michelle Rodriguez's character Rain would have been a bad ass character for the game.

[@phudoraps3374]

Do them all 😊

[@dalevintage]

This movie is Michelle R. at her finest! ❤️

[@juanjoseCF]

Enemy of the State" review man!!

[@cleitonroque2086]

Hey, please, watch and react to "Carandiru". It is a brazilian movie just as good as "Tropa de Elite" and City of god. You will not regret, it is based on a real story that happened inside a prison in Sao Paulo, Brazil.😊

[@zachthegreatone5776]

Been watching you for awhile and I know you get a lot of movie reaction requests, but thought I’d ask if you could check out The Mighty, based off the book Freak The Mighty. Not a single reaction to it on here.

[@MrVelez809]

Now watch. Resident evil welcome to raccoon city 😊

[@donny-ni2zd]

Not the greatest flick but the soundtrack helped 150%

[@feufeu420]

i love the old movies, and the games from 1 to 5 , but all over 5 is trash in my eyes , 7 is ok , but 8 is complete bullshit . but im happy that u had fun with that ^^

[@nightgoblin29]

Did you play the Remake of the second game? Running from Mr X haha

[@ThePartisan13]

I loved this series overall except for the last one. That was just a mess.

[@RayHardman7567]

Afterlife is probably the best one. And the last one throws some major curve balls. It essentially tells you everything about the world in like 10 minutes. But if your looking for some Leon that stays true to the games, as far as I can tell, watch the resident evil animated trilogy. It's essentially Leon's story. Degeneration is the best.

[@FreeKanal]

You must watch animated resident evil trilogy movies. Resident Evil: Degeneration (2008) Resident Evil: Damnation (2012) Resident Evil: Vendetta (2017) Also Resident Evil: Infinite Darkness (2021) Resident Evil: Death Island (2023)

[@dabegmister]

I only like the first two movies . That's just me

[@chopps75]

All of movies are worth watching, if you can divorce them from the games, in your mind. Just think of them as an alternate reality to the events of the games.

[@spartan_warrior5927]

The good thing about this franchise is it’s just like Fast n Furious. I promise you will see Michelle Rodriguez again and again and….again. 😂

[@tonyyul703]

Oh and the MUSIC.... YOU'LL NEVER GUESS..... MARLIN MANSON

[@mortenareskjold9006]

The next step to watch shoulda woulda could have been DOOM:)....

[@diondts]

You need to play the Resident Evil 2 remake on PS4-PS5. Its good.

[@blinkachu5275]

If you're a fan of the games, please just take the games out of your head while watching these movies :') They become infinitely more enjoyable to watch that way. They're SO bad as Resident Evil movies, while being okay to decent with good moments as just dumb action horror movies That being said, there is a steep decline once you get past 4, continuity just matters less and less to the point of exhaustion

[@chaosdimension6433]

Play Resident Evil 7 in the dark and get ready for one of the scariest game of all time, it gets quite unbearable at times

[@psicogames5509]

Hmmm maybe because I played Amnesia, Alien, Soma, I didn't think it was that scary, awesome game, yes, but not that scary.

[@tomassali8870]

Still waiting for Sopranos. And I am waiting for a long time

[@peterspicer7603]

Don't worry keep watching the rest. You girlfriend will be back.

[@MrJholshouser41]

They're not good movies. And some of them have like 100 cuts for a 10 min action scene. But damned if I haven't seen them a dozen times. 4 is probably the worst by far. 5 actually let's the fight scenes breath a little bit and they are really fun

[@tonyyul703]

The BRILLIANT THING about this film is that it's literally the story of Alice in Wonderland. And each of the Characters in this behaves just like Characters in Alice in Wonderland.

[@nilesstark]

Sad Fact: Paul WS Anderson originally wanted Michelle Rodriguez as the lead, but was convinced that Milla Jovovich should lead instead.

[@darrel6608]

There's no guarantee that it will work aww come on dont say that😂😂😂

[@enokii]

It's fun seeing fans of the games react to this silly movie. Good times nonetheless.

[@ScarlettM]

First two movies are the best. And I can't stand horror and dislike zombies.

[@jonwmeyer11]

I enjoyed the first one. The rest weren't good in my opinion.

[@Ronfost89]

None of this is canon to the games. The are very much their own really terrible story.

[@Gabagu]

The story in this film is actually better written and with more character development than most of what we get in the games, to be fair the games were never known for having a good story, i love them but their strenght is atmosphere and game design, story, writing and character-wise it's all very juvenile, Leon has so many appearances and the dude is known for doing cool flips, having a 90s haircut and saying corny one-liners, that speaks about the terrible quality of the story of the games, this film did really well in comparison to all of that.

[@raypoint1088]

good news you watched the best one in the series the other movies are all abortions.

[@MikeThemadman-kf7ct]

My all time favorite game and movie sadly for the movies this one is the best really and 2 is ok I seen Resident Evil Afterlife 3D in the theater and it was ok at best..much better in the theater at least. The games have always been amazing..except a few like Operation Racoon City..except online it was ok .. and I've played all of them Re2 remake is great and Re4 remake currently playing is great also. Still have and play the other like Re4..Re5..Re6..Re Revelations.

[@godzillaprime]

I mean, Rain must have some sort of base genetic immunity against the virus. She was bit 7000 times The commentary for this movie is pretty sweet tho

[@omaewamoshindeiru616]

of cos michelle is hot.. shes younger, fit and slimmer here . XD

[@joegiles7785]

I love the Resident Evil movies - both Mila's live and the 3D animated ones. They get a little screwed up, but I like the ending to the last one. At least Alice is always fighting to win, instead of just surviving. It more hopeful than Walking Dead. In Walking Dead, the Zombies will never go away, so any Hope is fleeting.
