What is with modern movies anymore? Some of them just 'end' prematurely!!!

Rating: 2/10 (22 April 2006)

I was annoyed with the removal of Harry Mason and the amalgam of Silent Hill 1 & 2 to make this sub par movie. While I too admit that the use of actors in latex and makeup worked well, I found the storyline very tedious and at times, I feel it strayed TOO FAR from the source material.
First off, Cybil Bennett does NOT die in the game, yet she dies in this movie. Moreover, for more than half the movie, I found myself rooting for the monsters and other assorted oddities to kill off Rose, as she came across as a whiny, know nothing soccer mom who should've left well enough alone.
The only parts of the movie I truly enjoyed were the very beginning where they 'find' Silent Hill and the very end.
There were some parts in between I didn't mind also, but the rest of this movie is DRECK and it ends suddenly, like MANY Hollywood movies seem to anymore.
Sure, the shocker ending was a nice twist, but all in all, save your money for better movies, because this was as horrid a translation as most other game to movie translations go.
