Thank you God. I can relax for a while.

Rating: 8/10 (23 April 2006)

For anyone who is a hard core gamer and is very upset with the way the movie industry has *beep* up various games (Like myself), You can relax for the time being. Today I watched Silent Hill, and although they changed the main character, they did an awesome job with the movie. I congratulate them for being the first to make a video game movie the right way. Silent Hill was a great movie, and most of all, it felt like Silent Hill. They used aspects from all of the games, and the scenery was flawless, you truly were watching silent hill on the big screen. This has made my day very great. The people who made the Silent Hill movie did what I wish most would. They made it so that if you had never seen or played the game, you would get the feeling that the game gave off. And that what I want to see, I mean A lot of people who watch these movies are not familiar with the game. There fore they get the wrong image for games such as resident evil. With silent hill you get the TRUE image that the game had created and that all I could ever ask for. You don't have to be exact or dead on, just keep it how its supposed to be.
people could make a lot of arguments about the movie however. I'm sure people were disappointed at silent hill to the extent of how I was disappointed with Resident Evil. But I think they should just relax, because this movie did not mess up the Silent Image what so ever. I mean the music was even perfect. And yeah the Cahracers and story lines were all jigsawed into the movie, but I think the director put all aspects of the game in the movie because he wanted people to know what silent hill was, and not just the first one, but the first three games. I went into the movie theater with no hope for the movie, expecting the worst and to be more disappointed then I had in the past year. But when I watched this movie, it was like a blessing in disguise. Its a groundbreaking Movie thats based off a video game. Its important because its the only one film that has gotten it right. I'm not going to complain about this one. Its managed to restore a tad bit more faith in the movie industry when it comes to game based movies. I would give this film a definite 4 of 5, when it comes to horror.
