Silent Hill a decent movie but not exactly made for the fan.

Rating: 2/10 (10 September 2010)

Let's see, this is my first review but since i'm a huge fan of Silent Hill i have to make a review about this movie. All start with this girl Sharon being a sleep walker and screaming in the middle of the night Silent Hill! (Why they change the name from Cheryl to Sharon, i'm not sure... but that's not really a big deal). Her parents, Chris and Rose DaSilva, they are worried and they don't know what to do, so Rose decide to take Sharon to Silent Hill and see if she can get a magical medicine or something for her sleepwalking child. Now here is the fatal mistake of the movie, WHY they have to change Harry for Rose? I read somewhere it was because Harry was to "feminine", so when "Caring for your own child" is a mother's thing? Anyway, besides that the movie goes pretty decent, the atmosphere is pretty well made, the monster are spectacular in my opinion (Al tough they could add more monsters) and the music is taken from the game, this is the strong point of the movie since Akira Yamaoka is a superb composer. If you are looking for a faithful adaptation (Just like me) then you are looking in the wrong place, this is more a re imagination of the first game with some elements of the other games. It's not bad but the original plot is hundred times better.
