I once went into a huge rant about this in another forum and I can't stress it enough that I am very disappointed in these movies.

Resident Evil - Ugh....who the %$#@ is Alice in the game?!!?!? I mean seriously,wtf. Jill was a bitch in part two and didn't get much spot light as she should. Claire....I didn't go as far as to seeing part three,#2 was disgusting.
DOA - Didn't bother to see it....the trailer almost made me shoot myself.

And now they're going to destroy my childhood anime...Dragon Ball Z.
I swear,it really makes me angry that they butcher EVERYTHING on the original story and try to think of stupid ways to make the viewers enjoy it. Yes,I understand that not a lot of people play video games and just watch movies because it's cool and yaddi yadda,but for christ sakes,some of us grew up with these things,and to see them butcher it all up like they do is just disturbing and disappointing all together....

But I guess on a bright note,I DID enjoy the graphics of Silent Hill,RIDICULOUS acting and mediocre of a story line,but bravo to the graphics. I've yet to see Hitman and the first MK movie & Tomb Raider was good. IMO
 
in DOA Ryu was playing with NUNCHUKS......that ruined it for me, well that + the "show off the babes" theme...

The dbz movie is a 2 hour parody o hollywood "hardworking" writers XD
 
i've seen all those movies already. the best ones so far imo:

postal
hitman
tomb raider 1+2
resident evil 3
 
Silent Hill was decent, i enjoyed it over other game movies thats for sure. Resident evil, yeah it could have been better if they stuck with the main storyline, but added tweaks. Seeing the same story over isn't always that bad, because hey, thats what made the game in the first place. For example, I wouldn't mind a resident evil movie that retold Jill's adventure in RE3. But thats just me. Of course they can add in new scenes n stuff to replace some puzzle scenes n stuff, but just stay true to the main storyline for once. with all the badassness Jill had, and the Star member craved nemesis, yeah it would be golden for me.

now, with all these bad movies aside, if there is one game i MUST have hope for, it HAS to be the Warcraft movie. it seems like they are actually putting time into it, and not rushing it in any way possible. Though it is too early to determine anything yet, i have a good feeling that this may make the video game to movie jump. Specially since Blizzard has a humongous fanbase off of WoW, I'm pretty sure they won't try to fuck this one up. They even mentioned this on their Show panels at blizzcon n stuff, that they are sticking to the main storyline. Being how diverse the warcraft storyline is, i have faith in it.
No, i don't play WoW or anything. but those countless months i've played on ladder for wc3 were fun times. It was the shiet climbing that ladder.
