Don't waste your money on this one...wait for TV

Rating: 2/10 (22 April 2006)

There were so many things wrong with this movie that I felt as if I were watching a test screening rather than a finished movie. The pacing was horrible (15 minutes of watching a woman walk around lost, and then something cool, and then another 15 minutes of nothing, repeat for the whole movie). The cool parts were, admittedly, cool, but the rest of the movie seemed so slapped together and directionless that everything else lost any power to entertain. The computer effects were atrocious and laughable. The writing was so bad that the audience did not laugh at the jokes, and they laughed at parts in the movie that were not meant to be funny. Silent Hill lacked anything that makes horror or psychological or action movies great. Even the filmmakers must have been yawning while making this one.
