Still the best video game adaptation


The main goal of a video game movie is to capture the spirit of the video game. It doesnt need to be exactly like the game, it just has to work as a movie. This movie was alright for what it was trying to be

Prince of Persia is definitely the best video game adaptation and decent to boot too!

What?! The game is great fun. This movie... isn't in the slightest.

reply

Compared to other video game adaptations, it is relatively well made. And obviously a game will always be more fun than a movie. You play the game you watch the movie. Playing is always "fun"

reply

Need For Speed is the best.

Warcraft is way better than POP.

Prince of Persia is just really forgettable, even Silent Hill is a much better one!

Not sure if troll...

Need For Speed was definitely fun. Warcraft deserved to do better it was the closest movie to the video Games. This was a great movie. I actually thought the game was a bit too hard for me so I thought the movie was better because I didn't have to play it lol.

Prince of Persia-5
Mortal Kombat-5
Warcraft-6
Assassins Creed-10 (Hopefully)

Care to update your score on Assassins Creed? =P

Never played the games but really enjoyed it. A suitable arabian nights fantasy by way of Pirates of the Caribbean.

I realize this post was before Detective Pikachu, Sonic the Hedgehog, and Castlevania came out, so I’ll just mention them without comparing.

I enjoyed this movie, but I’d rate it below the Angelina Jolie Tomb Raider movies, the 2006 Silent Hill movie, and the Warcraft movie.
Prince of Persia is about as good as the 90s Mortal Kombat and Street Fighter movies.

I like Prince of Persia. I also like the 2018 Tomb Raider and definitely Silent Hill.

reply

Eh, I would still probably rank it higher than those other ones.
