I found this list on line at: http://old-wizard.com/top-10-worst-movies-based-on-video-games

 

It was a list of the ten worst movies that were based on video games.  Granted, this list is purely one of opinion, but I can agree with most of what the guy was talking about. 

 

10. Tomb Raider 

 

While definitely not the best movie, it did have one redeeming factor, Angelina Jolie in very tight clothing, but let’s be honest, that really shouldn’t be considered as a redeeming factor, should it.

 

9. Resident Evil 

 

Milla Jovovich as the butt kicking, genetically altered, (although she didn’t know it at the beginning and really neither did the audience) heroine. 

I actually kinda’ liked this movie.  It was good enough to spawn two sequels.

 

8. Doom

Big fan of the game, no so much of the movie.  And that is coming from a fan of Dwayne The Rock Johnson

 

7. Mortal Kombat

 

Crappy fight scenes and even worse acting.

 

6. House of the Dead

Have to admit never saw this one.  Never wanted to.

 

5. Street Fighter  

I did, however, have the misfortune of seeing this one, Van Damme as a American Air Force Special Forces guy?  Uh, Yeah right.

 

4. In the Name of the King: A Dungeon Siege Tale  

 I saw this one just a few days ago actually and I never knew it was from a video game.

 

 3. Wing commander

Avoided this one like the plague.  Won’t even watch it on free cable.

 

 2. Double Dragon

Bad acting, bad plot, bad music, bad clothes, bad movie.

 

 1. Mario Brothers 

 Just all sorts of bad.

And we diefinately can not forget two very important movies:

 

 

War Games (June 3, 1983) 

 

Not really a movie based on a game, but one where the game almost destroys the US.

 And of course: 

 

Tron (9 July 1982) 

Almost the whole movie takes place in a game, kinda’ makes you wonder what is really happening inside that computer when you hit that start button.
