Just got back from watching "Silent Hill". It was weird watching a movie and being only a couple hundred meters away from where it was filmed.
*Warning, for the three of you who care there are spoilers here*
It had some really amazing scenes but at the same time it had some really crappy scenes that almost wrecked the film. They made it confusing, but in a bad way. They explaned so much but then left other things completely ambiguous. I think it would have been better if they hadn't explained anything at all and left it open-ended. I liked how there were three different copies of the little girl/demon. It was almost like a evil trinity.
There were some awesome scare scenes. The opening one with the child demons scared the shit out of me. I like how the world kinda dissolves, you can see what I mean by looking at this clip (

Overall it was a good movie that good have been a whole lot better. Too much useless talking.
