Resident Evil: Damnation is a bit of a mixed bag. The film starts off a little slowly, and it takes some time to really get going. Once the pace picks up, though, it becomes an entertaining watch.
The biggest reason I enjoyed it so much is Leon. It is great to see him written with actual substance. Instead of just being reduced to a shallow "pretty boy" like you see in TikTok edits, he is treated as a genuinely in-depth character here. The film explores his moral fatigue and the psychological toll of his job which makes his development highly interesting to watch.
The action is exactly what you would expect from a film starring Leon. It is over-the-top, ridiculous, and delivers that classic, action-focused side of the Resident Evil franchise. The scene where Leon beats a Tyrant with a ta…

Resident Evil fans often consider Damnation a good movie. Personally, I found it just average. It is enjoyable enough, though. At least it avoids the usual exaggerated sense of grandeur or a final act deus ex machina, which often feels like a recurring trope in Resident Evil CGI productions.
Still, it feels like something is missing. I think the main characters could have been given a bit more depth. Leon feels less interesting than he did in Degeneration, even though he still comes across as a soldier traumatized by war, in this case the events of Raccoon City.
In the end, it feels like a movie that does not add much for fans of the games. It works more as a generic action film. Do not get me wrong, I do enjoy those, but I would have liked it to capture more of the distinctive Resident Ev…

I've watched this movie straight after Degeneration (I gave that a 5, by the way) and there's a lot of differences between these films. Also, the version I watched is the original japanese one.
Animation:
1) the visuals look a lot better compared to the prequel but then again that's to be expected since they're 4 years apart.
2) there's actual horror and a tense atmosphere that doesn't exist at all in the prequel. Although it's only in the 1st part of the film, it did make me feel that I was watching a Resident Evil movie.
3) there's a few recycled scenes that are easily noticeable and that broke the immersion for me.
4) this will sound like a joke but I'm serious about this: Leon's butt looks so weird in this film.
Sound:
1) I really liked the seiyuus performance
2) I think the…

After the most passable and silly Degeneration, comes the second CGI film titled Damnation. Assuming you already read what I said about the previous movie, I will not repeat myself and will mention only the aesthetic differences in this one.
PRODUCTION VALUES
-The CGI quality has improved slightly in motions and lip-sync. It also feels far darker, bloodier, and grittier.
-The setting is more interesting as it takes place in a war zone located in a city. No more silly fluffy areas and annoying civilians running around.
- Voice acting is laughable, especially for Leon. I mean, come on, it’s like he didn’t even care to perform.
SCRIPT
-The story moves away from the style of the first three movies, which was basically a zombie epidemic in a civilized area with some secret laboratories. It…

(WARNING: RESIDENT EVIL FAN PRESENT)
With my mind fully on the RE2: Remake, I decided to give the animated series of Resident Evil another go. Tbh when I first watched Damnation, I really didn't think much of it, but I found myself pleasantly surprised by the quality of this film and its definitely the best out of any of the Resident Evil films. (It's not enough to make me forget Vendetta though my God what trash)
Not only does it provide some decent fan service for long time RE fans, but it also touches on some serious themes of war and causes, with you know zombies added into the mix. Some decent action scenes with solid animation, along with relevant themes and a story deeper than what you would expect from this kind of title.
However, I can't guarantee those who aren't RE films that t…

Leon's back and "BOOM!" goes my ovaries!
Story = 7 - Again, nothing new, Lickers and La Plaga are causing some trouble at the fictional Eastern Slav Republic. US sends Leon in to investigate the Eastern Slav Republic if they are using B.O.Ws. Ada Wong is here to interfere with Leon and some rebels.
Art = 9 - like i said in my Degeneration review, CGI and motion capturing is a good thing! The movement, the fight scene everything is well executed.
Sound = 8 - it's still keeping the Creepy and Scary BGM like it's supposed to do.
Character = 9
Leon Scott Kennedy - he actually grew a personality here, during Degeneration he is, cold and serious, looks like Claire managed to fix him up. There are no Leon awesome moments here like in Degeneration but, he did try to knife a Tyrant.
Ada Wong…

This reminded me of Resident Evil 4 slightly. Leon goes in alone and gets captured by the people he came there to stop. I guess the only thing real different is that they found something that controls the creatures to a point. We have all of the characters from Leon’s side of the storyline like the ‘bombshell’ Ada Wong to Leon Kennedy and Ingrid Hunnigan. And even in all of this, they have new characters that actually are loveable even if they don’t stay for very long.
The problems I have with the show are actually rather minimal but the ending feels as though it was extremely predictable. We have a large fight going with a ‘new’ form of strong bio-weapon, and a facility that is about to go through genetic cleansing. Then we have the ‘boss’ fight with multiple stages to him.
It’s interes…

That was..... actually pretty good : O
Well i expected nothing but disappointment from this movie, i scored degeneration a 4, and didn't see what was going to be much different in this one from the clips i'd seen.
Following on roughly from around the events of resident evil 4, the story follows Leon (of RE2 and 4) as he continues his adventures as an American spy/super special solder of some sorts. He ends up in some obscure soviet resembling war zone, amidst freedom fighters and government soldiers, with rumblings of monsters being involved in the fighting.
If you've seen any cgi game adaptation made in the last few years, the art and sound are going to be entirely familiar, its the same stuff used in exactly the same way. In fairness, they don't slaughter the facial animations in the…

This more like a fan service to Resident Evil fans than standalone movie. If you played previous RE games you will notice a lot of scenes copied from games. Story is poor written, characters are very cartoonish and uninteresting. Its like 99 percent of Leon being cool, Ada being bitch and monsters all around. Action scenes are great and sound effects are good. If you are Resident Evil fan and looking for mindless fun, this one is for you.
