Biohazard: Degeneration

Leon is so hot! He's one of the fictional characters that i really have a crush on!

Story = 7 - Is nothing new, T-Virus spreads, Leon goes in, kicks some zombie ass with the help of Claire. Cleon 4lyf!

Art = 9 - CGI and motion capture is an amazing thing, it's so life like that it feels like everyone there is a real person. AND THAT DODGE/PARKOUR SCENE! Leon is so cool...

Sound = 8 - because the Resident Evil is a horror game, so the BGM is creepy and scary, not that scary but, it can surprise you at times.

Characters = 9

Leon Scott Kennedy - ... my husband! I wouldn't mind having a hundred of his babies. This is after RE4 because, Leon is working as an Agent for the White House, whatever personality he had at RE4 ,he loses it because, he is very serious here. After working with Ashley, who wouldn't lose their personality?

Claire Redfield - Claire!!!! The last time i saw her was in RE2, i didn't play the Veronica games. Claire chose a different path from Chris and Leon, instead of fighting and killing zombies, she helps people by becoming a humanitarian, though she can still kick some zombie butt.

Angela Miller - an original character here. She's with SRT, she's looking for her brother, Curtis.

Curtis Miller - had the G-Virus and turned into a monster.

Enjoyment = 8 - after watching the Live action movies, this RE movie was much superior. It feels like your playing the video game itself.

Overall = 8 - It's good! Leon and Claire reunited and kicking some ass. The mini RE2 flashback was so nicely revamped. The story isn't new but, if you didn't like the live action movies, this movie might be for you.

Biohazard: Degeneration (2008)

Biohazard: Degeneration or better yet Resident Evil: Degeneration. A franchise of great games and what sometimes feels the most average of average films. Live actions are great then gets a bit meh. These CGI versions are sometimes great but most often than not just meh. A lot happens during this and not all of it is necessary since it feels like 5 hours compressed into an hour and a half.

The art is very much reminiscent of the older games CGI, especially for cutscenes. I appreciate that this is from 2008 but just feels very lacklustre if I am honest. Nothing really jumps ... at you as amazing even though everything is generally quite nicely animated.

The OST is pretty standard and nothing special. Sounds are pretty good with some nice SFX.

Characters are the very generic let us have a child that could ruin it all, a greedy set of businessmen and emotions causing mayhem. No one really stands out as particularly great.

It is about as average as it gets. It is not bad in any way but at the same time does absolutely nothing particularly. Feels very much like a game that was turned into a film because they expected it to nose dive.

5/10. Nothing particularly bad or good.

This movie is so fucking boring dude. Even the worst resident evil cutscene never made me sleep this hard.

I hate when a game studio makes movies based on their franchise and chose a setting for their movie that is the least conducive possible for the franchise's strengths to be taken advantage of. It's like all the most uninteresting in-between-game Wikipedia trivia rolled into one plot that you end up reading like Cliff Notes in order to understand the context behind that secret ending of the franchise's spin-off game. Only less important.

It's the same for the Paul W.S. Anderson movies but... as bad as those ... movies supposedly are, they couldn't possibly be this unentertaining, right?
