While I appreciate more movies of this franchise, it would be nice if, just for once, they actually did it right.
If I was to give one example on how to do it right, I'd go with the first Silent Hill movie; some scenes were just like the game: the alley and the wheel chair for instance, or pyramid head, and even though the story wasn't with the main character, it fitted better and alongside it.
As for this RE movie, taking major scenes from the games, and having different characters present and/or doing different actions, is not being faithful to the original. It felt more like a small budget bootleg than an actual movie. And not a good one at that.
One good thing from it, is that there are mentions of specific characters that were only mentioned in files (in the games), or a very specific book that wasn't considered cannon but always was, and they tried to shove it in this movie.
TLDR: Another appreciated attempt for a good RE movie that sadly isn't any better than the others.
