The best horror movie of the year, and best video-game based movie ever.

Rating: 10/10 (22 April 2006)

The ending credits of the movie finally rolled. Everyone is standing from their seats. The theater is relatively silent. Only the usual sounds are heard, but from behind me, the first clearly audible sentence is heard, and is as follows:"I don't get it."
She clearly didn't understand the movie. Me and my friends, however, did. And we also felt a feeling of relief, that finally, a good game-based movie has been released. I felt pain in the beginning. Not because it was boring, no, I thought not one second of the movie was boring, but because I wanted to see the town of Silent Hill. Everything about the movie was perfect, except for some unintentionally funny dialogue. The camera work was nothing short of amazing, the monsters straight from your worst nightmare, and the performances, straight from the heart. I cant make this review much longer without putting spoilers, but I can tell you, this movie will make you feel the pain the main characters feel, and it will only suck you into the movie more. All the negative reviews its been getting from critics is unfair, and they treat this movie not as a horror movie, but as a game movie, and refuse to give it a fair trial because of that fact. But trust me, this movie is great, and to dare say its nothing but a game-movie shows how unwilling some people are to open their arms to changes.
I'm pleased to announce that this movie is the best video-game based movie ever. But thats not surprising. I however, do feel sympathy towards all other game to movie adaptations to come out in the future, because Silent Hill raised the bar to new heights. Not just for video game based movies, though, but for horror movies in general.
