New Resident Evil Film Targets Big Box Office Openings

The new Resident Evil movie directed by Zach Cregger is heading toward a strong global debut of eighty million dollars, according to box office tracking. Trade reports also show the reboot is aiming for a domestic opening of forty-five million dollars in the United States, which would set a new record for the long-running film series based on the popular video game franchise. Early reviews from critics have praised the project as a major turning point for the series. Several reviewers on platforms like Yahoo and Rotten Tomatoes have called it the best film in the franchise so far, and even ranked it among the top video game movie adaptations ever made. Reviewers from The Hollywood Reporter noted that the director gives the tired franchise a much-needed boost with this new take.
