There are bad game movies, and REALLY BAD game movies...

Let's face it, movies based on video games suck. Hard. There was BloodRayne, Double Dragon, Street Fighter, Resident Evil Apocalypse, to name a few. Where did it begin? 1993: Super Mario Brothers, starring Bob Hoskins and John Leguizamo, as Mario and Luigi, based (somewhat)on the game. (Look closely and you can see an SNES Super Scope as one of the weapons!)

I would have liked this movie better if they didn't call it Super Mario Bros. I'm usually all for darkening a property for the translation to film, but in this case I think that was a mistake. Imagine how true to the property they could be with today's effects.

Video game movies are the worst adaptation you can possibly do... When people go see a movie like Harry Potter or Lotr, they want to see the exact same thing they read... However, for video game movies, they not only try to do a new storyline, but they destroy the idea of the video game like this one... The only good video game movie was the first Mortal Kombat movie, all the rest were bad... Hopefully Hitman will be good (as a prequel to the hitman series)...
