Brilliant! Best Game to movie adaption ever!

Rating: 9/10 (16 January 2007)

I had really high expectations to this movie since the start of the production. Well, looks like my expectations were fulfilled.
This film is primarily based on the first two Silent Hill games with a few elements from Silent Hill 3 and 4. Surprisingly enough, this movie catches the atmosphere perfectly. The amount of detail in the sets are amazing. Also CGI is minimal in this movie. Only a few of the monsters were made with some CGI effects (the Grey children). If there are any bad things to mention in this movie, then it would have to be the goofs. There were a few major revealing mistakes, especially when Cybil wipes out the blood from her head (the blood is made out of rubber!). The performances in this movie are really good, though Sean Bean and Tanya Allen could have done a better job. One of the best things in this movie is definitely the music, that is composed by Akira Yaomaoka, the man behind the music in all four Silent Hill games.
This is the movie many Silent Hill fans have been waiting for.
Cristophe Gans has really done an astonishing job! I really hope that the next Silent Hill movie will be based on the story from Silent Hill 2. That's one of the best love stories ever in a video game.
