Terror em Silent Hill: Regresso Para o Inferno (2026)

When it takes over thirty minutes for a film to go anywhere even remotely interesting, for my money, something is wrong.

"Return to Silent Hill" lacks both pace and scares; in short, I found it boring. It's not the actors' fault; they hand in decent performances. Its story, in my opinion, needed to be reworked to make it more engaging and exciting.

In summary, acting is fine, but I found the story lackadaisical and dull. Can't recommend this one.

Ok, so I don’t remember going to “Silent Hill” first time around (in 2006), but after this I am certain I will never go again. At least Christopher Gans had enough wits about him to cast someone easy on the eye in the lead, but even the ashen-looking Jeremy Irvine couldn’t breathe any life into this. He’s “James” who meets up with “Mary” (Hannah Emily Anderson) after he managed to hit her luggage with his car. Thereafter they flirt, court, move in together, split up - but as far as this plot is concerned, in no coherent order and only delivered to us by way of flashback. It’s only as he returns to find her again he discovers the town is now the victim of what looks like a nearby meteor strike and the place devoid of all but some curious humanoid creatures that definitely mean him harm. Can he put the pieces of this emotionally confused jigsaw together? Do we care? If this were just to have been a monster film with Irvine in a semi-psychotic fight for survival, then perhaps it might have worked better. It isn’t. The timelines are all over the place; characters appear and the disappear seemingly quite randomly and the psychological impact of the story is so compromised as to render this little better than a mess that looks every inch an incremental video game put onto a big screen. Some of the creativity behind the visual effects is to be commended but the story is completely lacking in either characterisation or substance. It will kill some time on the telly in October, maybe, but otherwise this has little to recommend it to anyone.

I watched original Silent Hill and it was a great movie. I have also played Silent Hill 2 which was a great game as well in its genre and now I watched this movie too. Well, what can I say about this movie... One thing they did well is resemblance to the game. It looks very similar and they did good job mimicking it, but they also made some story changes in movie, however the problem with this movie is that, when you're playing a game, you're into action and it's scary and it's interesting, but when you watch it like a movie, it's boring, because you're not action and for the movie to be great, it needs interesting story and that's why this movie didn't turn out great. It felt cheap to be honest. I don't know what exactly gave me this feeling, but that's how I felt about it. Maybe CGI, maybe lack of cast (it was just a few actors in total involved in this movie). So, I'm giving this movie 5/10, which means isn't not bad, but it's not good either, it's somewhere in between.
