Top 10 Worst Video Game Movies
Mark Wahlberg stars in this weekend's number one film Max Payne, the latest in an almost unstoppable line of bad movies based on video games. TIME's look at the ten worst console to screen adaptations is like shooting fish in a barrel with a plasma cannon.
Several of those involved consider this to be the single worst "creative" project they've ever worked on.
A Colombian (John Leguizamo) and a Brit (Bob Hoskins) play two Italian plumbers from Brooklyn. Dennis Hopper plays a half-lizard, half-man, which actually is only slightly different from the roles he usually plays. At one point, Hopper uses the Super Scope, an actual Nintendo game console peripheral, as a weapon. There's so much wrong with this movie that The Wizard — which features a Rainman-like child savant trying to make his way to California to play Super Mario Bros. 3 — is actually the superior Super Mario Bros. movie.
The first video game movie, and possibly the worst.
