Review Resident Evil: Vendetta (2017)

[Doctor Omega]

Resident Evil: Vendetta, known as Biohazard: Vendetta (バイオハザード ヴェンデッタ? Baiohazādo Vendetta) in Japan, is a 2017 Japanese 3D animated action-thriller film.

It is part of the Resident Evil franchise, set in the same universe as the associated video games (unlike the live action films starring Milla Jovovich).

The film features the characters Chris Redfield, Leon S. Kennedy and Rebecca Chambers.

It will be the third CG movie, after Resident Evil: Degeneration in 2008, followed by Resident Evil: Damnation in 2012, and this film will mark the third with Leon as a main character.

The film is produced by Marza Animation Planet, written by Makoto Fukami (Psycho-Pass) and directed by Takanori Tsujimoto (The Next Generation: Patlabor, Ultraman X).

Takashi Shimizu will serve as executive producer.

The film was released in Japan on May 27, 2017, while a limited theatrical showing in North America is planned for June 19th 2017.

The movie will also be available in North America across digital retailers on June 20th and on Blu-ray and DVD July 18th

This sounds like it will be much more accurate and closer to the source material than the other film series.

I also like the idea of an animated film based on a video game. It should simply look much better and more familiar to the fan base - if the makers take the time to get it right.
