EntertainmentSurvival horror versus familiar lore in the Resident Evil movie
One post argues that following Bryan—an ordinary man thrown into an outbreak—makes the movie more about confusion and survival than recognizing familiar characters and mythology.
TLDR
A post describes Bryan as an untrained protagonist who doesn’t understand the infection or creatures around him and just has to keep moving. The author suggests the movie may be trying to recreate the feeling of playing survival horror rather than reward familiarity with Resident Evil lore. That focus could explain why some hardcore fans feel disconnected, they argue, without excusing every lore change.
