One of the best yet

Rating: 10/10 (20 April 2006)

After a small screening in our town I fell in love with Silent Hill all over again.
Me and a couple friends got tickets for a midnight screening last night and from what I saw in the trailers this was going to be a good movie and it was! Right from the start you notice how emotions and character are a big part of the film especially the stellar storyline, I love how they changed Harry Mason from Silent Hill one into a woman (not in a literal sense) the main actress has a lot of great scenes and plays them out well especially during the scene with the Janitor creature and most of every scene where shes shocked or frightened. I have to say though most of Sean Bean's (sp?) scenes weren't that great with the acting, the whole side dish from the atmosphere of Silent Hill and Rose's search to Christopher was a little relief mainly because it gives the audience who haven't played the game a little more storyline. The ending was pretty sad though it's one of those climaxes that make you wonder. Other than that I really loved the whole Cybill scene (fans of the game and people who have watched the movie know what i'm talking about.) Let's hope the critics accept this film and it makes a huge success I accepted it along with my friends. The nurse scene was scary lol first time I screamed in awhile. So yes Gans did one HELLUVA fine job with Silent Hill! Thank god Konami didn't give this movie to Uwe Boll or i'd just simply die and give up on video game film adaptations.
Great sense of the original video game atmosphere, chilling and edge of your seat sound and some of the best use of CG fog and GREAT acting.
Watch this movie and don't listen to critics or that one reviewer who said this movie was boring.
