Top 10 Best Video Game Movies of All Time
-
Pokémon Detective Pikachu
Detective Pikachu is actually quite a good film, contrary to popular belief. For the most part, it was accurate to the video game, and Ryan Reynolds was great.
-
Mortal Kombat (1995)
Mortal Kombat is the best movie based on a video game ever made on the planet!
It was a great movie. The game is so awesome, though.
Some good, but lacked more attitude.
-
Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within
-
Silent Hill
Only movie I actually liked.
-
Sonic the Hedgehog (2020)
Haven't seen it yet, but I do want to.
ALL HAIL JIM CARREY!
-
Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time
This movie was fantastic.
-
Resident Evil
It's way better than all the movies above.
Amazing movie.
-
Sonic the Hedgehog 2
Jim Carrey's final role: a weirdo with an oversized mustache.
Better than the original. Should be #1.
-
Tomb Raider (2018)
Underrated movie. Good action, good acting, good plot. I loved it.
-
The Angry Birds Movie
This movie wasn't amazing or anything, but it was a decent film with lots of laughs and a grouchy main character who we all loved to see grow throughout the film.
In my opinion, this is the only video game movie that is good. I have not seen Halo: Forward Unto Dawn yet, though.

Five Nights at Freddy's

Ratchet & Clank
For what it was, I really enjoyed this movie. It felt like the video games, had the main voice cast who play their characters really well. I don't care too much for the new characters. I know it relies a lot more on fan service than quality writing, but it's certainly a harmless 90 minutes that I may see several more times in the future.
A quaint and colorful animated adventure that feels a lot truer to its source material than most video game movies.
This one at least felt like the game leapt off the TVs and right onto the big screen.
-
The Super Mario Bros. Movie
Can't wait for the sequel later this decade, hopefully with Madelaine Petsch as Daisy, Scarlett Johansson as Rosalina, Danny DeVito as Wario, and Kelly Marie Tran as Toadette!
As for Waluigi, however, I still don't know whether to pick Alan Tudyk, Jay Baruchel, Martin Short, Owen Wilson, Steve Buscemi, or Zach Braff for the voice of this character.
This movie is amazing. This was very true to the games. All the voice actors did a great job, and there are lots of Easter eggs in this movie. The sequel is coming in 2026.
-
Super Mario Bros. (1993)
This is excellent for a Mario movie. Maybe the remake will be even better. Ignore the critics if you are a true Mario fan. This is one of the reasons why Mario is better than anything else. Mario saved all of video gaming.
Best movie ever. Can't wait for the 2022 movie.
Love this film. It's in my top 5 films ever.
-
Pokémon: The First Movie - Mewtwo Strikes Back
All of the movies are great with Pokémon!
The best Pokémon movie ever created.
-
Warcraft
This film is not without its faults, but it does not deserve the hate it gets.
Warcraft is a fantastic movie. Great action, great visuals, great characters, and great music.
-
Sonic the Hedgehog: The Movie (1996)
The REAL Sonic movie. Now let's scrape some Knuckles and catch some Tails.
The Sonic OVA. Actually, I quite liked this one. Strange, isn't it?
Haven't watched it yet, but I'll buy the DVD from Amazon soon.
-
Super Mario Bros.: The Great Mission to Rescue Princess Peach!
Forget the 1992 live-action movie. Watch the 1986 anime. It actually has a plot based on the game, with adventure, humor, and (unlike the live-action movie) an actual Bowser fight (though it has a crappy ending). You should watch the Japanese version with subtitles because the English dub is missing a lot of sound effects. This movie is really underrated.
P.S. I heard a rumor that this inspired the Sonic anime, so give this a try.
Can't wait to find this on YouTube and watch it.
Amazing movie. It deserved more attention.
