Now being a fan of the video game I was a bit worried another great game would have a lackluster movie, but I was surprised. I knew I was in good hands when the opening music from the first game started playing over the logo.Its got a great cast, some of whom play characters from the game but slightly different.The story is a tight and moves fast and is enough of a change from the game so fans will have something new to watch.The special; effect are also better than average with really creepy monsters and victims. As an added treat the music is taken from the game to give it the complete silent hill feel.My only dislikes were the actress who played Cybil,she did not seem very likable and my other complaint is not enough Sean Bean who is great in everything, he was underused. So overall fans will be pleased and average movie goers will see a fun horror ride where the good far outweighs the bad.
