Most helpful review Silent Hill

  • Mother is god in the eyes of a child

    Rated - 5.0 stars

    [Highly rated reviewer]

    Silent Hill is almost certainly the most accurate game adaptation produced to date. Some people might dispute that many story fundamentals have been distorted from the game, and this is true to an extent, but Silent Hill has simply never been about storyline: it's always been about ambience, environment, and pushing limitations.

    In the film, Rose Da Silva acts against her husband's wishes by deciding to take her troubled daughter, Sharon, to Silent Hill due to frequent sleep-walks and mutterings of the town's name. On the way, a figure unexpectedly steps onto the road, forcing Rose to swerve, crashing and getting knocked unconscious. She awakens to find Sharon missing and wanders into the fog-choked town of Silent Hill to find her daughter.

    It is pure good entertainment pumped up with plenty of terrifying action without being weighed down by a heavy plot. The acting is fairly average for a horror flick but the effects are stunning. This movie will terrify and on occasion startle. Silent Hill is affluent with astounding effects that ensures the film to be an absolutely mind blowing adventure.

    This dramatic thriller presents a chance to give your adrenal glands a good workout.

    Wonderful, I just bought it off the internet.. I know I can not name the site.

    I loved, I have played the game as well. The evil wee girl was brilliant..loved the whole thing..recommend to anyway who enjoys way out films...like I do...what is the point in watching a film it if isn't way out .. I say...I like to see things in films I do not see in every day life.. and this was one of them....very close to the game I played years ago too...from what I remember.

  • Better as the game

    Rated - 2.5 stars

    Some aspects of the film are a bit ridiculous, I won't give spoilers, but there are things you can get away with in a game that just doesn't come across in a film very well. I was more scared playing the game.
