The film's just a bit slow-paced. The Sean Bean scenes (and this KILLS me to say it) were useless... didn't have to be in the movie whatsoever. A moody horror flick that relies on atmosphere and pacing can't be over 2 hours long, it just can't.
And as an avid fan of ALL the games, I can say (at least visually) this movie is extremely faithful. In the one scene where the mother is running down the alley, this is STRAIGHT out of the first game (when she runs past the garage). I couldn't believe it. And let's not forget the babies... STRAIGHT out of the game. Plus the grainy filter that was put over the film was an awesome touch too.
Urge, I'm gonna strongly suggest this flick for ya. NOW you can see it, as I have given my approval.

Ok the visual part works well, but do you said about the plot?
What is all the shit about that theres no cult just christian fanatics burning witches? One of the best things on the games is the Silent Hill's cult with their desire to awake the old cult's god (a great reference to Cthulu's mythos)
