Pre-production took place in early 2017 while Resident Evil: The Final Chapter was still in theatres, with Constantin Film chairman Martin Moszkowicz saying that a reboot of the series was in development, and producer James Wan expressing interest in the project. In December 2018, it was announced that Johannes Roberts was attached to write and direct the film. However, Wan later confirmed that same month that he was no longer involved in the project and said that news of his involvement was premature, and instead produced Mortal Kombat (2021).

A series of films with Jovovich is rather miserable, some of them are practically not uplifting to watch. The subject is approximately at the level of the best of the series, i.е. the same rubbish. Translated to English
Won't Watch
Judging by the ratings of the screenwriter’s films, it will turn out even worse than Anderson’s Translated to English
Watched
If you forget about the fierce miscast, then it’s quite a mediocre zombie movie for the evening. At the same time, it is far from the worst either within the framework of films based on games, or regarding horror, or among the franchise with Jovovich. Translated to English
Watched
It is a pity that the series is mired in the "B" category. Cheap, trash and without Mila. Watch only for show if you are a fan of the wonderful RE games. Translated to English
Watched
Not familiar with the game series, but apparently this film is much closer to it than the Milla Jovovich franchise. The characters are closer to the game, and some scenes are taken entirely from there. I have a visual question: if these effects are not a reference to the graphics of games in 1996, then how did it happen? Translated to English
Watched
But it could have been a good movie. Pick a director who looks like actors. Change the storyline of Leon and increase the final battle, then it would be possible to put 7-8. And so 5-6. And it’s a shame that in general the idea and some moments are not bad, as is the fan service. Translated to English
Watched
About the same level as the last episodes of the degenerate series with Milla Jovovich. Only 2-3-4 times cheaper. Such trash can find its fans, but definitely not among game fans – after what the writers did with familiar characters. Translated to English
Watched
Tears of an oldfag. The cult episodes from the games and the scenery of the police station with the Spencer mansion, alas, serve as a cover for toothless action without Tyrants and the most horribly redrawn characters. The new Leon Kennedy is a "hand-face" with every appearance. But the soundtrack is good Translated to English
Watched
I don’t know why I didn’t like it. Like monsters, explosions, gunfights – everything is available. But the impression that looked bullshit .. Translated to English
Watched
The graphics would have been improved, but the budget would have been more expensive then. And the restart turned out to be good. I was completely immersed in my childhood. I remembered PS1, how I stuck to the first rezik all night long. Translated to English
Watched
Leon what. is it wrong with you? I’ve been looking forward to this movie for so long that I fell asleep while watching it. Translated to English
It’s better to rewatch Dawn of the Dead and not spoil your mood with this appendix… Translated to English
Watched
I haven’t played it, I’m judging the movie from the outside. So from the side – very weakly. The budget, apparently, went to 2 crows, the script was simply not enough. The acting is simply disgusting, but the stupidity of actions and reactions is enough. I hope they get to Romero’s script someday. Translated to English
Watched
An attempt to make the film adaptation closer to the game (even put a couple of episodes from the first person) failed due to a completely mediocre cast, stupid dialogues and poor graphics. Badly Translated to English
Watched
Such a chic film, how they carefully treated the gaming heritage, but the African-American Jill and the Indian Leon, this is just a godsend. I really liked the movie (no) Translated to English
Watched
I’m just one of those who played these games on PS1 in the late 90s, and I liked the movie. If only because it evokes in memory all those emotions from the game, the same scenery, the same monsters, the same names of heroes, and even the same graphics from the 90s))) as if I played again)) Translated to English
Watched
Several scenes are exactly like scenes from the game, and this one evoked a certain positive note of nostalgia. The story mixes the events of the first and second parts of the game and it’s a good idea to remind the fans of the whole story. This is where the benefits of restarting end. Translated to English
Watched
Not a fan of games, so I can’t say how it turned out in the game or not, but the movie turned out to be quite worthy, at least better than the previous 3 parts with Mila. The lack of money is very striking, the graphics are miserable, even in the first part it was better with this almost 20 years ago. Translated to English
