Movies based on video games have historically been dismal box office failures.
The only one I can remember even remotely enjoying were the Resident Evil films...but come on zombies and babes with guns, what could go wrong.
Film adaptations of video games have been flops so far, but I wouldn’t write this one off. I think Raimi’s style would fit perfectly with the game material and make for a fun movie that could succeed where other take themselves too seriously and fail.
