A decent attempt at something different. An ok story line and plenty of action. It has a similar visual style as Sin City with nearly all CGI backgrounds and environments but tweaked slightly to give a comic book feel to it. Well worth checking out if you have missed it so far.

Good movie
This silent hill movie was a little better than thw first one. I liked that it went into the character of Sharon more and what her role really way. The cgi for the monsters was really good and the storyline was well made.

A very average straight to DVD film about a board game that brings death to the losers but a wish to the winner. Quite a low budget which is shown in the quality of the cgi, not great acting either but the story is ok. Could have been done so much better though.

Not as bad as it sounds
I watched this many years ago and could remember nothing about it, so decided to give it a go again as I noticed it on Amazon. It's not the best film, but is vaguely promising and not as bad as it sounds.

This is a horror film that decides to forego any traditional scares and creeps and just go for full on gore. This mostly works as some of the blood and gore in this is brilliant, however it is spoilt a little by some pretty poor CGI. If they had left out this CGI and some wannabe 3D moments then I might have rated this a tiny bit higher, as the CGI really is that bad. It's a rather basic plot but effective and I've always had a soft spot for Bradley Coooper. Vinnie Jones is alright and vaguely menacing although personally I think they could've found someone slightly more threatening. I'm rather glad that he barely opened his mouth for the entire film, as his accent definitely would've spoilt things!

Overall this is a fairly decent watchable horror, and much better than some of the more recent jump scares based ones.

A truly awful film
If I could give it 0 stars I would. One of the worst films ever. I get some films are so bad they are actually funny unintentionally. This tries to replicate that intentionally. You'll want to turn off after 5 minutes.

Great Sfx
Arnie at his best
A close call as one of Arnie's best films. A very good action/horror that still looks up to date with recent films. Simple premise as the hunters become the hunted. The Predator looks awesome and the effects, with little cgi, still look good 30 years later.

just disappointing
In the world where Avengers and of course the imminent Infinity War is on the horizon Justice League is just an utter failure of a franchise movie
Be it the action, the dreadful CGI, the thin plot and the utterly terrible bad guy...it's just a disappointing mess

The CGI and creativity in terms of the monsters is brilliant. The interpretation of the apocalypse is nothing we haven't seen before but it's well executed and there are some pretty cool locations. (0 more)
The storyline is VERY predictable which makes it an easy watch but you'll have guessed the plot after about 25 mins. (0 more)
