The Movie is better than the first. This Movie has more commonalities with the games than the first. It is great to watch for every Silent Hill Fan!

The setting is horrifying enough,I find Silent Hill: Revelation to be just perfect for the movie based on Silent Hill 3 and on the video game on the whole. Adelaide Clemens looks and acts absolutely like Heather from the video game. The setting is horrifying enough, white-gray foggy outside scenes follow rust-bloody shots of the inner side of the most scary and mysterious city. A lot of scenes are taken from the game, that's a nice gift for its fans. The plot is really interesting and twisty and it's understandable for everyone, not only video game fans who know the background of the story (like it happened with the first movie). The script is well-thought out, the dialogues sound realistic, the connection to the first movie is clearly explained. Silent Hill 2 has not come down to just an expensive video clip full of visual effects like what happened to the latest Resident Evil movies where the whole script can be written on just one sheet of paper with the most informative dialogues being: "I need to recharge ammo", "Cover me" and "Run. I'll try and stall them to give you time to get clear." The monsters are disgusting and creepy, every motion they execute curdles the blood. The unceasing gritting sounds and even piano music create an atmosphere of true horror. I just think Silent Hill 2 could be a little bit longer, the time in the movie theatre passed too fast, but that's not a big bit of complaint. Well, I think it is a must-watch movie, containing a lot of outstanding features of the video game (which can satisfy the most devoted fan of the game), but being a good independent movie for every horror lover to enjoy.

For video game fans: It's just as faithful to the game as the first movie was faithful to the first game (think about it). The movie ran in the same order as it did in the video game, and contains so many references for the third gameFor video game fans: It's just as faithful to the game as the first movie was faithful to the first game (think about it). The movie ran in the same order as it did in the video game, and contains so many references for the third game installment. As for the atmosphere it was a bit tame compared to the games, but still chilling.

The acting was pretty decent and the special effects were amazing. It's thrills it's what mostly stands out from the film, it has its scary moments and a horrifying atmosphere. It's bloodier than the first one. Though I was kinda left out with a feeling wanting for more, I wasn't satisfied enough, which is why I'm desperately calling out for another installment, I mean this franchise can be just as successful as Resident Evil.

If you liked the first one, you'll like this one too, especially if your a fan of the game. If you're not a fan of the games, then I don't think you'll get quite as much thrills as I got.

This movie is not bad at all. I think it is not as good as the first one, but it's right behind the first one. I actually enjoyed both movies. I also played every single game and I do not understand, why everyone is hating this movie.

Bad directed, poorly acted, disappointing special effects, and a confusing plot, are some of the things that make "Silent Hill Revelation 3D" a waste of time and money.

I loved Silent Hill 3 so I was excited when I found out this movie was based on it. Yes there were a few differences between the game and the movie but it still stayed true in a lot of ways and turned out being really good. Plus it had really nice effects as did the first Silent Hill movie. Even for a non-Silent Hill fan, it was still a really good horror movie. The world of Silent Hill is strange and crazy. Some critics need to be more understanding to the creativity of its genre. Expand

For some odd reason, the makers of this film thought they could write a better story than that of the highly acclaimed Silent Hill 2 (game), so they opted to skip that episode altogether and base the first film sequel (loosely) on Silent Hill 3. And still made a mess of that.

A vaguely watchable horror film, but one you won't be remembering even an hour after the end credits roll.

It's really sad that most of critics hate movies like this, which are so good, and love movies that have a weak storyline and are senseless.. people don't have good taste anymore. Expand

Can't imagine how horrible it would be i 3D but it must be truly disgusting. Plenty of the gory bizarre special effects from the original have been routinely reintroduced in this hack driven abomination if there ever was one to predictable effect. The plot is dead basic and I think even the most diehard horror fan would find themselves debating whether to leave or not after the first ten goofy minutes of this hilarious nonevent of a movie. Its a shame that Sean Bean who can be one of the scariest actors out there is relegated to a small support role and isn't onscreen for very long. Very disappointing not even worthy of a Saturday marine escape movie status at the local mall. Staying in the food court and staring at nothing in particular with a coffee in front of you is a better bet than this truly awful film. Expand

I honestly shouldn't be too upset about this movie because it's not exactly a sequel but at the same time it is. Don't get me wrong, this movie like most others did have its moments that were entertaining and scary but the majority was slow and boring. don't pick this movie up unless you can stand no plot progression and stupid writing.

Jokeworthy, but nice to see Heather come to life. I will say the 3D bandwagon resurgence was the worst possible thing to exist in film at the time, and they cheaped out on the story for gimmick effects (like all 3D films around the same time)

I can not quite understand the destructive score the critics used to rate it, but I can agree that this movie truly isn't good. The story is unclear and leaves so many gaps that there isn't space for good moments somewhere in between. The acting is merely oky, but not more and the ending is very disappointing. In respect to the video games this movie is a shame, but for someone who doesn't know the games' plot this movie won't probably make sense. But the worst part of it is that at all points this movie completely fails to scare the viewer. There is nothing obscure enough, other than the background story, maybe, to build up some tension. I can imagine that it is really hard to combine the hours of gameplay from a video game in an average movie, but this could truly have had a greater outcome. there are still a few things I like abiut it, though. For first, the setting and the "monsters" look really good and sufficiently realistic, the setting is in my opinion well chosen. The best is definately the sound design, which is fantastic. The soundtrack for this film, which was also adapted from the second original Silent Hill is close to being my altime-favorite and the even the soundeffects for the evil enemies are convincing enough to could have been potentially frightening, if the rest of the movie would have allowed so. I have pretty much said everything already; Silent Hill Revelation looks good, sounds good and scores as some kind of experiment, but as a movie, especially from the horror-genre is disappointing and will never receive good feedback, which is understandable. I wouldn't not say it's very amusing to see this movie, but neither it's directly a waste of time, just nothing worth to stay in memory after all. Expand

Vale la pena verla? Si para entretenerte un rato y obvio si eres fan y quieres gritar REFERENCIA!!! en cada escena de la película.
