Videogames and movies are two very different mediums that are not generally compatible, and for a videogame movie to "work" it would have to be a substantial departure from the source material ...
Many of the highest quality videogame movies that have been released could easily had their names changed, and the few references to the videogame that are made in the movie, and be released under a different name; and had people never known it was based on a videogame no one would see the connection between the two productions.
