The release of Borderlands to less-than-stellar reviews it currently sits at 9% on Rotten Tomatoes is a good reminder to filmgoers that Hollywood has yet to figure out how to make good video game movies on a consistent basis. It doesn’t matter how good 2023’s The Super Mario Bros. Movie is, it can never erase the cinematic stench of 1993’s Super Mario Bros., the granddaddy of all bad video game movie adaptations. As infamous as that film is, however, there are video game movies that are actually much worse.
