The 12 Worst Video Game Movies Ever

Gamers were blown away by Patrick Jean’s 2010 Youtube hit, Pixels. The short, depicting a New York City overrun by classic video game characters, combined jaw-dropping visual effects with effortless charm. So when we heard that it was being adapted into a Hollywood feature film, we were cautiously optimistic.

Currently scoring a dismal 19% on Rotten Tomatoes, though, Adam Sandler’s version is looking like a dud, with a tired Ghostbusters-knock-off storyline and a retrograde depiction of gamer culture. But is it one of the worst ever? Only time will tell if it can match the legendary ineptitude of these big-screen video game bombs.
