Good, but not great.

Rating: 8/10 (22 April 2006)

This movie made me feel all warm inside. Finally, a video game to movie adaptation done right. One of the down points of this movie is the poor dialogue, but I can't really fault them for that, since it was the same case with the games. They definitely hit the right notes on the creepy factor, and the monsters from the games never felt like they were out of place, unlike most other adaptations (coughDoomcough). The gore was plenty enjoyable and this was probably the first movie where I've seen someone get their flesh ripped off. Unfortunately, it does take a while to get going, and a few parts might confuse casual viewers. I consider this a must-see for any fans of the game, though. You won't be disappointed.
This movie gets 8/10, for staying true to its roots.
