Silent Hill was boring

Rating: 2/10 (16 April 2009)

The first ten minutes seemed promising, but then I was quickly let down. I didn't know the video game very well before I saw the film, but it looked interesting. I was wrong. Laura Holden is good as the lead, but other than that, the actors are not very good.
The creatures look fake and there's too much CGI. There is some nice photography and pretty cool looking set pieces, but this got boring real fast.
That's mainly because the pacing of the movie is REALLY slow, much slower than I thought it would be. There are a few good moments, but nothing to write home about. If you are a fan of the video game, you will most probably appreciate this horror movie much more than the average person. 2/10
