This is not Resident Evil
It still amazes me despite how many films, animations and now a series that they can't recreate the feel and vibe of the game series.
Decided to check this out despite hearing how bad it was. This is very far from Resident Evil you know from the games. Wesker is very different which just begs the question why? Other than a few creatures brief appearance from the games this may as well have a different title. The Zombies, now called Zeroes, again why? Don't even look like zombies. The story is rather daft, the whole thing is disappointing. Save your time you are not missing out by skipping this.

I heard this is something like the 7th entry in the main 'Transformers' non-cartoon movie series.

7.

I still remember the first.

This is also a prequel, of sorts, set during the 1990s instead of the more contemporary setting of the earlier (mid 2000) movies, with a new cast of human characters alongside the Autobots and - here - the Terracons and the Maximals.

For some reason, however, I found it not to be as engaging as those earlier (maximum Bayhem!) entries, even though it is clearer on just what is happening - maybe it's the fusion of sound and vision that's missing?

Anyway, it's not bad but I still prefer the first two entries in particular (before it all went massively downhill).

I think I might have to make a new genre for this to fit into - rom-com adventure conspiracy action movie maybe?

Anyway, in this Ryan Gosling plays a stuntman who - after a near fatal accident (or was it?) - broke off all contact with his former co-workers, including his girlfriend (as played by Emily Blunt), until he is eventually pulled back into the making of a new movie, directed by said former partner, after the star of the movie (who he was previously the body double for, pre-accident) goes missing.

This movie, then, is really about a movie-within-a-movie, playing heavy attention to the oft-overlooked role of the professional stuntmen (and women) in Hollywood blockbusters.
