Insomniac was done dirty.
Wolverine ended up being another high caliber release that was drug through the mud for reasons well outside the quality of the experience.
This is the definitive Wolverine video game.
🕹️ Zach Cregger reveals his top four video games of all time.
• The Binding of Isaac
• Dark Souls III
• Resident Evil 4
• The Last of Us Part II
Austin Abrams also revealed that he asked Zach which Resident Evil games he should play before making the movie. Cregger gave him Resident Evil 2, Resident Evil 4, and Resident Evil 7 as his gaming homework.

@Damac1214 It in no way makes sense. There is no aspect of the core premise of this film that adds up. You can’t just say that and have it become true. You’re allowed to like this film but you don’t owe it anything. This is the wordy kind of hill to die on.
@Damac1214 Considering who Umbrella are and their biohazard secrets, they would absolutely send one of their own to get the job done. If anyone got their hands on that cure and figured out what it’s for and who it’s going to they would be gone.
@Damac1214 It’s the basis of the entire film. There is no reality where you would give a potential cure to a world ending virus to a regular guy. It’s like giving a random person the one key to deactivate an atom bomb. No tracking or protection. Just blind faith.
Your average person got She-Hulk cancelled by not watching due to a lack of faith. Drinker didn’t have the backing of a multibillion dollar studio on his side to help him. There is no way Disney/Marvel should be failing with the resources they have and yet the consistently do.
How is this any better? It’s a cure designed to present an outbreak, why would you treat that lightly? Also the outbreak spread pretty close to the start of Bryan’s route implying that the city has already been taken, no matter what Cregger says.
If someone said they were adapting anything from a franchise I would sanely assume that the first entry would be the respected one lore and narrative wise. Not that it would be lifted 1:1 but that it would be the bible for the story being told.
The thing with Resident Evil in general, is that there's 30 games in 30 years, therefore different entry points, causing RE fans to have very different interpretations of what RE "means to them," from VERY different minds and that's ok so stop fighting omg???
The ending is a Ryan Johnson level “subversion” that actively tells you that watching this film was a huge waste of time. Sad endings can happen and be great but this was worse. This was a pointless ending that renders everything prior to it irrelevant.
It is absolutely not mean to state that Cregger made a film that he either had no interest in making or that he made a creature feature and slapped the RE label on top for more funding, something he denied at a time when it wasn’t even suggested yet.
Both of this are horrendous.
The girl in the house is meant to be a surprise but because the camera can’t see her mutated leg neither can Bryan which makes no sense. When he does see he throws all logic out of the window and tries to help her up, leading to him getting bite, thus leading to the worst outcome
Dead internet theory proving itself with the following repeat posts:
“Welcome to Raccoon City IS a faithful adaptation”
“If you dislike any part of Wolverine you must hate video games”
“RE7 literally saved Resident Evil”
“RE “fans” are the worst thing ever because…”
