To be fair, movie critics are harsh judges, many of these movies got significantly better user reviews than critic reviews. But yeah, we haven't seen a truly great video game based movie yet. But, with over 20 more video games based movies and tv shows in development right now, we're bound to finally get a great one at some point.

I suppose so. I probably agree with critics and aggregate scores more often than I disagree with them when it comes to movies, but of all those movies listed, most looked unappealing to me, to the point I've only watched 4 of them: Mortal Kombat, Mortal Kombat: Annihilation ( oh my god ), Resident Evil, and Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within. I haven't seen Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within since it came out on DVD in....2002?, but I did enjoy it. At the very least, it was a technical marvel. Been a long time since I've seen a video game movie. Hope we get that great one though.
- Since it's soooo important to be accurate, I did see the Street Fighter movie in the theater, but was just counting from the list.
