We have seen countless renditions of video games made into movies and tv series constantly in the last 30 years. Usually there are differences that fans of the video game can disagree with either minor or major. Personally I'm ok with slight tweaks here and there if everything is still executed somewhat solidly. This is another instance that will go either way with fans of the game. There are aspects that live up to the game with astounding visuals and excellent intensity. The acting is fairly well represented but some of the casting decisions will be sure to tear some fans away from the finished product. Plot wise it does relatively follow the basis for the most part but at times strays of the path into territory that seems forced for the times / certain crowds. Overall it will go either with fans but people unfamiliar with the game that don't know any different will enjoy it as a decent post apocalyptic survival saga .
