I just saw it last night, and I have mixed feelings. As far as the atmosphere and visuals go, they got it dead on. The scene where Rose first comes to Silent Hill is exactly like the very beginning of the first game. They even used some of the same camera angles, which was very cool. The story though... they changed a few things which didn't really make sense to me. All in all though, I'd say that Silent Hill is probably the best video game adaptation I've seen. I know that's not really saying very much, but it is a decent film. My girlfriend loved it and she hasn't played any of the games, so I'd say that you'll probably get more out of it if you haven't played them either. I still think that the plot of SH2 would have made a better movie, so here's hoping that they make a sequel based on that game.
