    β˜… 7/10

    The Resident Evil franchise keeps rolling long, alternating between the occasional live film and more frequent,animated adventures. Resident Evil: Death Island fits into the latter category. Its an animated horror adventure, that follows a cast of established characters, as they take on a new bad guy, set on reeking zombie and monster filled, mayhem. Frankly, I do feel these films have taken on a production line quality. They all feel more or less, the same. The stories in the broad sense, don't really vary much. If you have seen one or two, you have seen them all. RS: Death Island, for me, meets this definition. Its not bad as such, it just feels a lot like those that have gone before. So what is the film like? Its got a very Japanese presence, in terms of the style of animation. The characters are from the franchise, which wont mean much to you, if you are new to this. Not a lot of character development is on offer, regarding these characters. Only the bad guys, gets a moderate degree of back story to explain his twisted motivations. This film really runs on gun toting exposition. Its well paced, exciting stuff, that keeps you occupied, if not mentally over stimulated. In summary, if you haven't been exposed to animated Resident Evil films before, you will probably enjoy this outing. If you have, you may still enjoy it, as I did but perhaps, also feel a strong sense of Deja vu, as well.
