"Eastwood and Reinhart might make for the least compelling and leash charismatic starring duo in recent memory. Neither really brings much to the table." - Jason Helm, New York Observer


"Once again, this film is slovenly faithful to the video game of the same point. Usually this would make fans happy, but I suspect that the fans will just replay the video game in this case since there are not going to be any surprises on the big screen." - Shawn Moseby, Fresno Bee

"The action sequences are well-done and Scott Eastwood makes for a surprisingly good young action star. Sure, the story isn't very original, but if you're expecting originality out of a Resident Evil film, you went into the wrong theater." - Perry Manson, CinemaBlend.com

Rated R for bloody violence and gore
