The realm of video game movie adaptations is notorious for its disappointments, with films like 1993's Super Mario Bros. and 1997's Mortal Kombat: Annihilation standing out as particularly egregious examples. These movies not only failed to capture the essence of their source material but became infamous for their lackluster quality. However, there's hope on the horizon as recent adaptations like the Sonic the Hedgehog series and The Super Mario Bros. Movie have shown a marked improvement, offering fans a glimpse of what these adaptations could be. Yet, not all attempts have been successful, as evidenced by the less-than-stellar reception of movies like Borderlands.
Hollywood's persistence in tackling video game adaptations is commendable, especially when the bar for failure is set so low by some of the worst offenders in the genre. Let's delve into some of the most notorious flops in the history of video game movie adaptations.
