The good...The actor playing Chris looks like a good pick, and I think Claire as well. Wish her hair was pulled back as its usually portrayed in the games, but you can say, that's just a fan nitpicking.
I like the song in the trailer. The darker, more horror look of the film looks good.
The bad. The editing to me looks amateurish. It gives me a sense that they're putting all the good stuff in the trailer to make it look really good.
Just the opening statement "Every story has a beginning" for some reason already resonate to me its like a college level director trying to make a film.
Really?! That's such a cliche line, have a more smart opening statement than that. Geez
My two favorite characters in the game, Leon and Jill are still HUGE HUGE HUGE miscast.
When it comes to comicbook or videogame to movies, I honestly am more forgiving on a lot of things, cause sometimes they need to make things more interesting, as I am aware that what was great in a book, or game, may not translate well on the big screen.
But my biggest issue for me is miscast. Cause no matter how that person portray the character, if I CANT see him as that character, it takes away the core of the character and it just remains some guy pretending to be this guy.
That's why Downey is great as Stark, Evans as Cap, Cavill as Superman, etc,
Your suspension of belief...and that you watch these characters come to life, and not just think, that is Robert Downey as Tony Stark.
This whole lets be pc culture is ruining games and movies.
Director says he's a fan, then Geez, be a fan and pick the damn right person for the job.
This is just a trailer and I'm already cringing at Leon, which should have been my favorite part of trailer. I was honestly trying to be open minded and was hoping that once I see the trailer, maybe I might change my mind and want to see it in the theater.
Putting my money where my mouth is, sorry...pass. Will wait til its on Netflix.
