Mortal Kombat (1995)
A product of its time? Yes, definitly. But it's good at translating to screen most of what the games were about. I love its faithfulness.
Paulo Júnior's rating:
People who added this item 2342 Average listal rating (1511 ratings) 6.3 IMDB Rating 6.5
Silent Hill (2006)
A good adaptation of the games with some dumb changes. Audiovisuals are perfect, it's just themes and depth are shallower than the games.

People who added this item 3548 Average listal rating (2330 ratings) 5.8 IMDB Rating 5.8
I really think it translates well classic TR and Lara Croft to the big screen! The movie could be better as a standalone product, yes, but it's still fun.
Paulo Júnior's rating:
People who added this item 369 Average listal rating (284 ratings) 6.2 IMDB Rating 6.6
A grittier adaptation of the source material, but a well done one nonetheless.
People who added this item 499 Average listal rating (340 ratings) 5.9 IMDB Rating 6.8
Warcraft (2016)
It's kinda faithful to the Sands of Time PS2 trilogy and it's not that bad an adaptation, just not that good of a movie sadly.
People who added this item 3391 Average listal rating (2302 ratings) 6.4 IMDB Rating 6.7
Resident Evil (2002)
A better movie than it is an adaptation (because it actually isn't an adaptation).
Paulo Júnior's rating:
People who added this item 554 Average listal rating (390 ratings) 4.8 IMDB Rating 4.8
Fight scenes are cool, cosplays are cool. The games story is also dumb, so more can't really be expected of the live-action adaptation.
People who added this item 261 Average listal rating (175 ratings) 4.6 IMDB Rating 4.8
It at least looks like the videogames.
People who added this item 233 Average listal rating (162 ratings) 5.3 IMDB Rating 6.1
People who added this item 1096 Average listal rating (764 ratings) 3.9 IMDB Rating 4
The story has little to do with the games. And of course they replaced the japanese with the american as the main character! At least the cosplaying is relatively well-done.
People who added this item 602 Average listal rating (424 ratings) 3.9 IMDB Rating 3.6
At least the cosplays are cool. And the story is kinda similar to Mortal Kombat 3's.
People who added this item 370 Average listal rating (281 ratings) 2.6 IMDB Rating 2
People who added this item 451 Average listal rating (322 ratings) 2.7 IMDB Rating 2.4
It's terrible, really, but at least it has a few things in common with Alone in the Dark 4.
People who added this item 375 Average listal rating (268 ratings) 5.8 IMDB Rating 6.4

Hitman (2007)

Double Dragon (1994)
Very little to do with the games, but the games barely had a story to begin with. I at least like the depiction of future featured here.
People who added this item 1010 Average listal rating (706 ratings) 4.8 IMDB Rating 5.2
Doom (2005)
Garbage adaptation of Silent Hill 3.
It at the same time tries to be faithful while simultaneously not being at all. Characters are butchered and their personalities are completely and utterly different from their game counterparts.

People who added this item 1108 Average listal rating (769 ratings) 3.8 IMDB Rating 4.1
Has nothing to do with the games and it is gross and stupid and ugly and bland and boring and ridiculous. But it came at a time where games weren't respected so I can't judge it as harshly as the ones below.
People who added this item 20 Average listal rating (6 ratings) 5.5 IMDB Rating 0
People who added this item 60 Average listal rating (38 ratings) 3.1 IMDB Rating 3
It's ridiculous in the worst of ways, it has NOTHING to do with the games. It's offensive to KoF fans.
Paulo Júnior's rating:
It's SO awful! It makes no sense and the scenes seem to be directed as to annoy and cause headaches. It's almost like they were trying to be awful.

Seems well made, obviously for kids. I still would've preferred faithful adaptation of the Adventure storyline or even better an animated movie. I like Sonic but I'm a faithfulness-whore and watching it would only lead to me being frustrated.

Tomb Raider (2018)
Seems like a really well done adaptation of the source material. But I hate this version of Tomb Raider and Lara Croft.

BloodRayne (2006)
Uwe Boll. What more do you want said? It's terrible!

Games adapted to the big screen with real actors. And yes, it's a ranking (more or less).
