Resident Evil

well the world is also possible for our hero brian played by austin abrams until it isn't uh resident evil the Big movie released this weekend actually might be a pretty decent box office return.

Some projections possibly around $80 million, which would be a really solid opening.

This is a nice, crisp 90-minute movie from Zach Kreger, who gave us Weapons last year and Barbarian just a couple of years ago.

This is his take on a piece of IP.

This is Resident Evil as connected to the popular video game series, although not exactly concerning itself with the lore of those video games.

We do have Raccoon City.

We do have the Umbrella Corporation.

We do have monsters they're gonna look very familiar but this is unlike any of the previous seven yes I said seven Resident Evil movies that we've been offered six of those from Paul WS Anderson one of them a reboot during COVID times that I saw straight on Netflix, I do think went straight to streaming and was forgettable.

I will say, you know, I told our friend Ricky I liked this movie.

He's like, I would not have expected that from you.

Yeah, me either.

I know, like...

Maybe Resident Evil does not seem on paper like the kind of thing I like, but you and I talked about it off mic last week.

I actually do like some of the Paul W.S. Anderson ones.

The first Resident Evil I thought was very interesting and clever.

I actually own the first three, and I think they're not bad movies.

Mm-hmm.

The ones after that and the attempted reboot, I can't defend.

But I was curious to see how this was going.

And I'm just going to say, big thumbs up for me.

I like this one a lot.

I have enjoyed all of what Zack Prager has done.

I liked Weapons.

I own that.

I enjoyed Barbarian, which I know again a movie that's surprised apparently i've just come off as a jerk-off that doesn't like anything but there are certain things that i like i i well the fact that everyone's surprised when i like something tells me that maybe maybe i need to embrace life more but uh That's odd to say in a movie that embraces death so fearlessly.
