Top 5 Flops: Video Game Movies That Missed the Mark

The video game movie genre has often been plagued by films that fail to capture the essence of their source material, leading to some truly infamous flops. Classics like the 1993 "Super Mario Bros." and the 1997 "Mortal Kombat: Annihilation" stand out as prime examples of how not to adapt a video game into a movie. However, the tide seems to be turning, with recent successes like the "Sonic the Hedgehog" series and "The Super Mario Bros. Movie" showing that it's possible to get it right. Despite these improvements, the industry still produces its fair share of disappointments, with movies like "Borderlands" continuing to miss the mark.

Hollywood's persistent efforts to adapt video games into films have led to a mixed bag of results. Yet, it's reassuring to know that the bar for quality can only go up from some of the lowest points in video game movie history.
