There were moments in this show where I really loved it. I thought Lance Reddick as Wesker was inspired. Paola Núñez's unhinged Evelyn Marcus too grew on me. It has tension, and the dual story lines of the teens learning more about Umbrella in New Raccoon City and the post apocalyptic world would, and I stress that word, WOULD have been great IF we had seen the end of the world, IF we had seen why Jade thinks Billie died, and the T-virus spreading across the planet.
If anything this felt even more removed from the games than the Paul WS Anderson Milla Jovovic efforts. But ultimately Netflix cancelling it after one season meant we were left unfulfilled.
I have seen it twice now. I won't a third time.
