Are video game movies finally good now?

Inside Gaming published this video item, entitled “Are video game movies finally good now?” – below is their description.

Video game movies have historically been not great, to say the least. However, more recently video game adaptations have started trending upward.

A new trailer for Mortal Kombat’s cinematic reboot dropped last week and the excitement around it is palpable. In addition, both Detective Pikachu and Sonic the Hedgehog were well received when they released and made a decent amount of profit at the box office.

Furthermore, many comic book movies and tv shows have been doing pretty good for a while now, so we thought we’d ask…Are we entering a new era of consistently good video game movies?

Let us know about your favorite and least favorite video game movies in the comments. And definitely let us know if you’re looking forward to any upcoming video game movies or shows.

Thanks for watching!
