I happen to love this movie.  I played the video games, but not enough to judge the movie based on the game.  First of all I couldn't beat the games, It got to confusing and I didnt' know what to do, so I gave up and played the second and third games.  Back to the movie.  This movie was a bomb.  In my opinion, this movie should be considered a Action film not a horror film.  I wasn't scared one bit.  The action of this movie was great.  I watched the first movie a milion of times.  It is a hot movie with action.  Stop comparing the movie to the games, and just compare it to the movie itself.  It's really hard to make a movie 100% on a game.  If you like action movies this movie is great.  I can't wait for it to come out.  There also making a 3rd movie, which I can't wait for too.
