... It's THAT bad?

Just earlier I saw *shudders* "Resident Evil: Degeneration". I read some reviews, all of which said it was horrible, so what brang me to watch it? 2 reasons:

1. I'm a big Resident Evil fan, so I thought, "Might as well".
2. Come on, when a movie is supposed to be horrible, you HAVE to see it XD


Anyway, on to the rant review. The first 10 minutes when Claire was in the airport, I thought, "Well, it isn't THAT bad". Sure there were a few speed bumps, it wasn't all bad. The first zombie appearence was predictable though. Leon's first scene was definetly worse though. It was watchable up until the point where they first met, and the RE 2 "Get down!" moment was referenced. I had to pause the movie and ponder how cool that could have been if it was exucuted right. Wee bit later, the first "emotional" moment was made. It wasn't terrible, but they should have done it better.


Skipping along, it really fell apart near the end. The part with the G-virus was just lame all-around. For one thing, when he was turning into it, he said some of the most lame lines I ever heard ("And I'll express it in my own personal way"?! Honestly?). But this, THIS is by far the worst part of any movie I've seen: Leon's underwater kiss with Angela. I highly considered taking the disk out of my 360, and putting it in a blender. How can I describe it? Stupid, spontaneus, abrupt. I could go on for hours about how stupid it was, but let's be adult here and move on.


The final scene wasn't as bad as I thought it would be, save for the one part with Angela and Leon, which almost brought me to tears (in a bad way). Anyway, I know I probably can't convince you to not watch it, but I can't be responsible for broken broken brains.

    Het it wasnt that bad. It could have been worse. It could have been a sad repeat of FF:Spirets withen. I wouldnt say buy it. Just go to www.megavideo.com and look it up the whole movie is on there. It's worth wathing for a RE fan, plus the DVD has trailers of RE 5. Overall it's not that great but it was worth the time to watch .Just make a copy of it or go to megavideo. Thats all. Long live Leon S. Kennedy.
