Mittlerweile sind sieben Jahre seit dem verheerenden Ausbruch des T-Virus und der folgenden Zombieplage vergangen. Racoon City, das damalige Epizentrum der Seuche, ist immer noch ausradiert; der Pharmakonzern, der für die Katastrophe verantwortlich war, wurde aufgelöst. Doch dann geraten Terroristen in den Besitz des schrecklichen Erregers und entfesseln - nach einem abgelaufenem Ultimatum - erneut die Hölle auf Erden. Der furchtbare Kampf geht in eine neue Runde ... (ProSieben MAXX)

Boring unfortunately, very boring.

This has very little to do with Paul Anderson's film series, and I have no idea how much it touches on the original Capcom subject matter. Regardless, as a standalone film, it definitely holds up. It definitely gets bonus points for the video game stylization, not only in terms of the visuals but also the plot structure and (somewhat unfortunately) the elaboration of the characters or dialogue speech. It still moves along at a solid pace and if I turn a blind eye to the fact that I won't even remember it in a few days, I can consider it a very decent action B-movie.

At first, I was considering giving it four stars, but after some thought, I had to take one away. Compared to the Resident Evil films, I find these a bit more engaging and suspenseful. Maybe it’s because the main character here is Leon S. Kennedy, who is my favorite character from the "RE" games. He has great lines, and I find his character likable in every way. The best scenes undoubtedly took place at the airport, where the darkness took my breath away and the zombie attacks were surprising. The downside here is the limited number of action moments. After the action at the airport, I didn’t see much more. The final battle with the monster felt a bit amateurish to me. We’ll see how Resident Evil: Damnation turns out. I give Degeneration 65%.
