I thought it was ok. Wasn't as good as i had hoped but it wasn't bad either.
I thought it was a good flick. Thankfully, the makers didn't turn it into a "guns blazing" action flick like Resident Evil. I'd see a sequel if one is in the works.
Liked the flick, but the hospital and nurses weren't used enough nor were as effective as they could have been.
Never liked it. The story was a retard novel for herpy victims. The monsters weren't used enough, as FrighT said with the nurses and all, and more clearly the monsters were not Rose's psychological creations, they were James's and Alessa's. The atmosphere was spot on though, but I didn't think it was scarey or gorey enough like the game. Pyramidhead was awesome, but not the villain which was dumb, I think the one from the game was more beautiful. Nice adaptation, but it wasen't enough and it confused everyone.
I really liked it. I had never played the game so i could not compare the to.
I've seen this film twice, in theater and in DVD. I loved it! It's just that the film is too short for me or something like that. I am expecting more use of the cool characters like the nurses, the pyramidhead and the janitor..And I loved the music very much and the sad scene in the end!
I liked Silent Hill compared to all of the other extremely bad survival horror based movies. Alone in the Dark was pukeworthy. Bloodrayne was so bad I wanted to run through a dark room full of broken glass and salt in the nude. I feel that would have been less painful. And as much as I'd hate to say it Resident Evil is pretty damn bad. Nowhere near close to the games. I can only hope that a sequel improves the mistakes made on the first film. Silent Hill 2 may be good. But only time will tell.
Very disappointing, I fell asleep during it... and I NEVER fall asleep during movies.
Yeah, I mean seriously...I sure as hell don't mind if it's a woman taking the lead, but they should've made the entire thing from scratch and made it into their original concepts..Nope, Hollywood wants what audiences crave with the fans for more money so they throw in a few known demons and crapola characters (even ones that seemed like they came from the game and had their names changed WTF!?) into the mix to see if this story some hippy-drunk-high-headed-looking writer wrote up would appeal and throw everyone a freakin' bone...
That is REALLY getting old! And like I said, I will NEVER see a Hollywood movie in theatres or anything if Heath Ledger doesn't get an award on his behalf because that just shows you how unkind Hollywood is to the ones that helped its god-forsaken empire to grow....
Anyway, I'll give Silent Hill 2 one last chance to prove it can be better..if it does hurray! If not, goddamn you, American-Money-Companies-Of-Pure-Annoying-Evil...
Don't bring back Pyramidhead...make your own monsters...Konami's suffered enough shame already from what SH: Homecoming has opened up since its release.
Was alright, though its only good for 1 watch really.
I actually agree with Fright.The Nurses could have been spaced out in the movie a bit more,especially leading up to the final scenes.Aside from that i thought it was a great movie.
i liked the move alot, the creatures looked really good and i liked the whole seemingly abandoned town
I really enjoyed this movie.
I love the silent hill game franchise best horror survival games made in my opinion. As for the movie the first time i watched it i was really upset by and couldn't get over the fact that it didn't follow the original games story line. It felt weird with a woman taking Harry's place and the whole backstory of his missing wife was just left out entirely, focusing instead on the little girl. I was also highly dissappointed at red pyramid's small role in the movie, whereas in the games he is really the epicenter of all the evil creatures as well as one of the main obstacles you must overcome throughout the game. I felt it reminded me more of the third Silent Hill game rather than the first. That being said i felt the graphics were ok and it did a pretty good job at capturing the creepy atmosphere but it def. could have been much better than it was and stayed true to the game series.
