A great film that does justice to the game

Rating: 10/10 (9 May 2006)

This movie was great. It totally lived up to the game's name and most likely let the game's fans happy and satisfied. Those laughable critics are biased against video-game oriented movies - i can't blame them, since Uwe Boll has put his own "touch" on the genre - and do not realize that video-game is a form of art! When they heard that it was a film adaptation of a game, they immediately thought that the storyline was poor (which was not!) or that the film bases its strength on raw violence and gory effects (the film has its gory climaxes, but surely does not rely upon them to make fans!). Maybe people should play the game before seeing the film, to see that it's not about monsters and blood, but it's about a beautiful and intriguing nightmare drama, based upon emotions. However, many friends of mine that have never played the games, found it enjoyable and were interested and curious as to what had actually happened in the film. A horror-drama masterpiece.
