It seems this discussion has been going on for sometime lol but I'd like to put my 2 cents in for the movie.
Spilers obviously:
Gamewise I was kind of disappointed in how they adapted the movie. The plot made no sense as they mixed in random things fromSH1, 2, and 3. Pyramid Head (or as my friends like to call him in the movie "triangular prism head") was a completely useless monster. He had been reduced to an ambient silent hill monster and lost all psychological value he had in the 2nd game. I don't know why they changed Dhalia to being a good person when in the games it was her fault for setting Alessa on fire in order to give birth to god. Alessa didn't even exist for the reason she did in the game. The cult wanted to kill her because she had no father when, if I remember correctly, they really wanted to keep her alive to focus her anger and hate to help give birth to god. Even looking away from the game storylines the ending made no sense at all. Silent Hill had no reason to exist anymore and Alessa could die happily after exacting revenge.
Overall it was a decent adaptation of a game to movie. They could have done alot better in my opinion (Pyramid Head's entrance made him look kinda pathetic shuffliny through cockroaches) and maybe make the movie a bit more coherent. None the less I enjoyed it purely because I got to see Pyramid Head (and the crucified miner was pretty cool) and will probably get it on DVD when it comes out purely because I'm a SH fan.
