It's actually one of the worst movies I have seen in a long time, and one that can ruin the Silent Hill brand in the mind of some people that would like the games. My friend, who never played the game, said the game was one of the most idiotic thriller movies he had seen in his whole life, and he couldn't imagine how the game could be any better if it was based on the same concept. Ugly work of the director - when you make a movie about a videogame it doesn't mean you must use the same camera angles used in a game - weak and stupid storyline - it seems they have gathered the most stupid elements of the series leaving aside what was truly important, especially in the best installment, Silent Hill 2: character development - incredibly cheap special effects that made everybody in the cinema laugh. In my opinion, I think that to make a good video game to movie adaptation, a director needs to take a different approach - only an "author", and not a sub-average director, can make justice to a franchise like Silent Hill, somebody willing to create his own idea of Silent Hill.
