Best movie out there based on a video game.
I suppose we all know that movies based on video games really aren't that good. Most of them suck, while others manage to be decent, and with movies based on games like Tekken, Metal Gear Solid and American McGee's Alice coming up, Hollywood seem to really, against all odds, have accepted video games as a way to tell a story (= make some money).
But anyway, what's your favourite movie based on a video game? (Animated movies are not excluded)

i usually dont watch movies that are based off of games because they usually suck
I like chocolate!! No matter what flavor you get, you can always taste the broken dreams!
~Dead people should stay dead, otherwise whats the point of killing them???
Are animated movies excluded? Because the Street Fighter 2 movie was quite entertaining.
Probably Advent Children for me.
The Tekken Movie was decent. Haven't seen the street fighter Anime, but the Live action was decent as well.
Resident evil is horrid.
I'm going to go with "In the Name of the King" since it was Dungeon Seige and all.
Indeed it is.Originally Posted by NeoCracker
As for good movies I rather enjoyed the Mario Brothers movie, and the sit-com TV show they made of it. Hit man was also a pretty decent movie which surprised me. FFVII: AC was good too.
Beyond that and a few I can't remember their all rubbish though.
This space intentionally left blank.
MMM, Super Mario Bros.
Forgot about that one.
Though In the Name of the King is still better.
The Live Action Street Fighter movie was decent, but mostly just due to M. Bison.
Super Mario Bros and the ORIGONAL Mortal Kombat. Mortal Kombat Annihilation was an attrocity against humanity!
Oh, did I mention I'm awesome?
Double Dragon or Street Fighter due to how absolutely unbearably terrible they are. They're hilarious.
You've got to be out of your mind!
Anyway, Its hard to say a best out of a selection so crappy. But Ill go with the Doom movie as it wasnt completely horrible. Ill give a nod to the first Mortal Kombat movie too.
Silent Hill was fan service at it's best, as long as I pretend the "Burn the witch!!" crap didn't happen.
Mortal Kombat. Yes.
My vote also, though I'm not familiar enough to make a comparison to the games, it was a good movie on its own merit..not great, but good.
Yeah, I'd have to agree. The Tekken cartoon was pretty crappy.You've got to be out of your mind!
Other than that I actually think the Tomb Raider movies are pretty decent. Much of that is largely because of Angelina Jolie, though.
EDIT: and of course Advent Children.
