I don't think so, no. The medium of telling the story wouldn't be the same, therefore I don't think it would translate as well. Also, often the story is just way too convoluted for the general audience, and most moviegoers would most likely be frustrated at it not making sense to them.
This would mostly be if it were based on later games, though, if it were based on the first one (or possibly the third one, I suppose), I don't think it'd be as bad. Don't think it'd be universally praised though. Unless they really pulled the transition off amazingly.
