Com menos de uma semana restante até o lançamento do filme, o primeiro Resident Evil: Bem-vindo a Raccoon City reações começaram a rolar a partir de sessões de imprensa recentes. As reações são geralmente mistas para positivas, com a maioria citando o filme como um esforço de entretenimento que os fãs dos videogames vão adorar, enquanto os críticos estão divididos sobre as performances e efeitos do filme. Veja as primeiras reações abaixo:
As far as video game movies go, #ResidentEvil #WelcometoRaccoonCity is solid. Feels like ASSAULT ON PRECINCT 13 in the RE universe, has a few killer set pieces & Johannes Roberts creates palpable atmospheric dread that lingers throughout. So many RE/general horror nods too! pic.twitter.com/xbYLjRFpqq

As a fan, I enjoyed #ResidentEvil #WelcomeToRaccoonCity! The entire theater raved during major set pieces. The trailers and clips DONT do it justice. Zombies & LisaTrevor were extremely badass. Ending felt rushed thats my only gripe. Felt like a #JohnCarpenter film for sure! pic.twitter.com/xpOHbznVnk

Resident Evil: #WelcomeToRaccoonCity is incredibly faithful to the games, but ultimately tries to squeeze too much into its runtime leaving it feeling rushed. Everything looks the part, including the well-cast actors, yet there's just none of the game's terror or tension. pic.twitter.com/CklXCNJkvl

RESIDENT EVIL: WELCOME TO RACCOON CITY is a good time. The script is underwhelming to say the least, but it has a great 90s action horror camp vibe to it, loads of gore & tons of fun references for the fans
Far from perfect but I enjoyed it…#WelcomeToRaccoonCity #ResidentEvil pic.twitter.com/sszvIDNH93

#ResidentEvil: Welcome To Raccoon City sticks to the source material and doesn’t try to reinvent the Video Game Film genre. Not a perfect movie but I wasn’t upset with my time watching it.
