Critics Consensus

A visually tacky sequel that lumbers along with a plodding pulse and lacking the thematic resonance that distinguished its source material, Return to Silent Hill gets lost in the haze.

4/5

Without any of the game’s tension-releasing exploration and puzzle-solving breaks, it has a nightmare flow, constantly upending its own logic and the geometry of its spaces.

D-

A cautionary tale: chilling proof that borrowing legendary video game symbolism without comparable skill remains the surest way to alienate a fanbase, on or off the console.

Has a digi-augmented chintziness on the one hand. On the other, the thought "Lady and the Duke-era Eric Rohmer doing Hellraiser" came frequently to mind.

…Return to Silent Hill is like a bad dream that you can’t wake up from, which oddly enough is what it was probably intended to be….this moth-eaten, video-game cash-in is the lamest kind of cinema imaginable….

Visually arresting manifestations of trauma aren't enough to sustain Gahn's return to the video game adaptation...now reducing his gloomy netherworld to a somnolence only interrupted by disdain generated for its wooden performances.

The horror visuals and world building look straight out of a video game, and that just doesn't cut it for an actual movie by a major studio. Nothing feels remotely frightening. There's really no great build to the story.

If you played the game, it’ll feel very familiar, if edited, and cutting to the chase. It says a lot while whizzing by at what it’s saying

Love the game, loved the money. Should have been 4 hours or a series to flesh it out, but for the time it had I enjoyed it.

This movie had every potential to succeed if it was using every element of Silent Hill 2 and instead it Choose to go of the deep end by changing too much around. I want to say it’s bad but the only thing that comes out is disappointment.

What I liked was all the atmosphere, and all the story line that is similar to the game Silent Hill 2. I also liked the main characters in the movie. As a fan of the other 2 movies, it exceeded my expectations.
