Hello Nairalanders!!!
I know most of us is still basking in the terrible loss of the Nigerian National team in the ongoing FIFA World Cup, but that doesn't mean we shouldn't have a bit fun right?



Sadly, films based on video games have a terrible reputation. The general consensus among moviegoers is that they remain entirely unfaithful to the source material and feature some incredibly terrible storylines and acting.
However, I tend to disagree. Sure, any time Uwe Boll comes out of his hiding place, I want to run and scream in terror, but not every video game movie is the worst thing since Batman v Superman .
I like to think there are quite a few (I’ve somehow managed to find at least 10 of them) that, while not cinematic masterpieces like The Dark Knight, Citizen Kane, or The Room , are still pretty enjoyable to watch.
Here are 7 video game based movies that aren’t the worst pieces of cinema ever made:

Silent Hill

Sure, it’s needlessly clunky in places but it sure does bring the chills. In hindsight, Silent Hill was a perfect fit to cut through the thicket of below-average video game movies that seemed to come out every few months in the mid-‘00s. Packed with a decent cast (including a rare sight: Sean Bean surviving!) and more than its fair share of scares, Silent Hill may not stack up to its horror peers but, for a video game effort, it’s more than good enough. Bonus points for including Pyramid Head; just as terrifying (perhaps more so) than its video game counterpart and a sight that will be sure to have you hiding behind the sofa before the credits roll.

If GTA is not here, then the list is wrong.
Sometimes, I wonder if some people actually know how to read... Or you're from the future or a parallel universe where a movie based on the GTA franchise exists? Good for you.

Best Video Game "Movies" of all time and u start hearing God of War, Street Fighter, GTA, PES, etc.
Some even had the temerity to insult the OP for not including these games in his list.

To read has always been a problem for most Nigerians. Most just want to ignore the topic/headline and jump straight into conclusions.

HITMAN (2007)
Timothy Olyphant ’ s Agent 47 comes off as very true to the games, often feeling like its plot could easily have been a mission in the stealth-killing franchise. Nailing the exotic locales and the often-political elements of 47’s assassinations, Hitman remains a great example of a video game turned movie. And the sequel with the dude from
Homeland (Rupert Friend) wasn’t bad either.
