Saw the new Resident Evil in IMAX a couple weeks ago. Can proudly say Zach Cregger is the next big horror director because the movie was great, it once again perfectly blended horror and comedy like his other 2 films. Bryan really carried the movie with some laughs and, dare I say, great tension. There was never a singe moment I was looking at my phone to see how much time was left. And it definitely followed the formula of the games even if it lacks any of its main characters (or any characters, period).

Which brings me to my next point: some people crying about how it’s “REINO”. Well, the Outbreak games didn’t have a single recurring character, so it’s not exactly out-of-left-field for even the games to do this. The first PWSA Resident Evil movie is ironically viewed as the next best Resident Evil movie and it likewise didn’t have a single character from any of the games in it (it did have Lickers, though). OTOH WtRC had all the main characters from the games and it sucked.

And as an added bonus, I got a couple collectible IMAX tickets at my screening.
