Silent Hill (2006)

Silent Hill

I was not entertained....the premise of this movie, that some(how are they picked?) of the dead inhabit a world of horror manipulated by an omniscient evil entity is pointless and without hope. Story line was just not believable and left me drained, sort of like what a dementor is supposed to do to a person. Remember Fallen? that one left the same bad taste in my emotions. I believe in the struggle of good against evil but in the end one will win. Stalemate, and that's what these movies are all about, is not an option. July 16, 2008

Excellent Blu Ray

I love the film Silent Hill. It is one of the only films that takes it's videogame source material and doesn't make it awful. Silent Hill really feels like Silent Hill. The Blu Ray looks excellent, and the sound is uncompressed which sounds great. I don't know why I've heard so many poor things about the video. I own the DVD as well, and did a side by side comparison test, and it was like night and day. If you already own the DVD, you owe it to yourself to BUY the Blu Ray if you love this movie.

Great movie, but you lose the bonuses

I owned the original DVD and was excited to add this on blu-ray.

I love the movie and it actually to me looked pretty darn good. It had plenty of clarity to me and just plain looked better and was an improvement over my plain DVD version.

The problem is that all the great bonus features are all gone! I really enjoyed all the bonus materials and it really upset me that they couldn't make this version truly BETTER. April 23, 2008

One of the good video game adaptations.

This Blu-ray movie was worth the $14. It has decent video quality (not the best, but acceptable) and good sound quality. If you already own the DVD then an upconverter will probably be close to this Blu-ray copy. The movie is one of the better video game adaptations that has been made. Not quite near the quality of Resident Evil in my opinion, but this is still a very enjoyable movie. I gave this Blu-ray 4 stars out of 5 because the story, aduio, and picture quality were very good as a whole. Very happy with this purchase. February 15, 2008

Excellent

Wow, I already had the dvd of this film (which I wrote a review about), but was absolutely impressed by the Blu-ray version.

The picture is clear and sharp; the scenery is much more grandiose and expansive, details not visible in the dvd are distinguishable in the Blu-ray version.

I would highly recommend getting the Blu-ray version if you love this film, you will not be disappointed. January 21, 2008
