The best movies and TV to watch at home that started as video games

Your time is precious, and your options are endless. The good news: We watch it all so you don’t have to. Polygon’s What to Watch highlights the best, the funniest, the scariest, and the most exciting in movies, TV, and everything in between. Stop scrolling, start watching!

I t’s It’s a banner week for video game adaptations in live action. The new Resident Evil show, titled Resident Evil , dropped on Netflix, as did the adaptation of Uncharted , starring Tom Holland and Mark Wahlberg.
There’s now a long and storied history of video game adaptations, from 1993’s Super Mario Bros. to this year’s Uncharted and Sonic the Hedgehog 2 . There’s also a litany of upcoming based-on-a-video-game movie projects, including planned adaptations of [deep breath] Borderlands , Five Nights at Freddy’s , Gears of War , Ghost of Tsushima , Minecraft , Metal Gear Solid , Space Invaders , and Just Dance.
But of the ones already out there and watchable at home, which ones are worth your time? Polygon is here to help.
We’re including movie and television adaptations here, but many readers will probably notice the omission of Netflix’s The Witcher . That’s no slight against the show, but it doesn’t qualify; while the series probably wouldn’t exist without the video game franchise, it is an adaptation of Andrzej Sapkowski’s books.
Director Paul W.S. Anderson grew up playing Mortal Kombat at the arcade, and his first of what turned out to be quite a few video game adaptations was, naturally, 1995’s Mortal Kombat . Unlike the more recent adaptation of this property, this movie actually features the titular fighting tournament. While the effects certainly look dated at times, Mortal Kombat is a colorful, delightfully cheesy tournament movie that embraces its source material (the needle drop of the title theme!) and goes to great pains to recreate the atmosphere of the bloody game. — Pete Volk
Mortal Kombat is available to watch on HBO Max , or for free with a library card on Hoopla.
Anderson’s most ambitious and extensive video game adaptation work is the six-part Resident Evil series. Four of those six are directed by Anderson, while all six are written by him and star his collaborator and wife Milla Jovovich. While fans of the games have long complained that the series diverts from the source material (at the time, Anderson said “under-performing movie tie-ins are too common and Resident Evil, of all games, deserved a good celluloid representation”), the movies themselves absolutely rule. As well as being an outstanding display of Jovovich’s action star bona fides, the Resident Evil movies are also a fantastic study of genre and of a filmmaker’s continuing refinement of his unique style.
The first movie, 2002’s Resident Evil , is the closest to straight horror of the franchise, and features some truly unforgettable moments (like the laser grid trap — if you know, you know). The second movie, Resident Evil: Apocalypse , is helmed by renowned second unit director Alexander Witt ( Skyfall , Avengers: Infinity War ) but is in my view the most forgettable of the franchise.
Things really start to kick off with 2007’s Resident Evil: Extinction , directed by Russell Mulcahy ( Highlander) and best described as a “zombie Western.” Anderson returned to the director’s chair for the last three entries, all of them bangers that see Anderson refine his frenetic style of shooting action, imbued with a chaotic energy and supported by the undeniable badassery of Jovovich. — PV
The first five movies of the Resident Evil series are available to watch on Hulu , or on Tubi for free with ads. Resident Evil: The Final Chapter is available to watch on Tubi for free with ads.
Like most great video game adaptations, Silent Hill finds inspiration from the games without attempting a direct translation. The movie follows Rose (Radha Mitchell) as she looks for her daughter in the horrifying and haunted ghost town known as Silent Hill. The town itself seems to transport her to another world filled with monsters intent on tracking her down and killing her. Meanwhile, her husband, Christopher (Sean Bean), chases his wife to the town but encounters nothing once he arrives. Half extended metaphor for the differences in how men and women experience the world and half terrifying realization of some of the video game franchise’s scariest monsters, Silent Hill isn’t just a great video game movie adaptation but one of the best and most underrated horror movies of the 2000s. —Austen Goslin
Silent Hill is available to watch on Starz through Prime Video , or for digital rental or purchase at VOD vendors.
Let’s start with the disclaimer: This is an adaptation of a fighting game franchise that can be described as “hot people in limited clothing duke it out.” The movie is quite faithful to this idea, in a delightfully trashy way that works because of how damn good it looks. The colors pop, the actors shine, and the fight scenes rule. You just have to be willing to sit through some appropriately stilted video game dialogue.
It helps that Dead or Alive had the legendary Corey Yuen behind the camera as the director. The Hong Kong filmmaker and choreographer directed some terrific movies in his home country, including the Michelle Yeoh star-making vehicle Yes, Madam , and is best known in the States for being Jet Li’s personal action director in his Hollywood movies (as well as the action director of X-Men ). — PV
DOA: Dead or Alive is available to watch for free with ads on Tubi, Vudu , The Roku Channel, Freevee, Pluto TV, and Plex.
Legendary director Takashi Miike ( Audition ) has made quite a few video game adaptations, including this fun take on the Yakuza franchise. Playing into the ample comedic material from the video games, Miike takes full advantage of the opportunities available to him when recreating the rules of a video game world in a live-action setting. — PV
Like a Dragon is available to watch in full on YouTube.
Miike followed up Like a Dragon with this delightfully faithful version of the Ace Attorney franchise. Appropriately over-the-top with exactly the kind of hairstyles and stylistic cues you would expect from the franchise, this is a delightful and very different kind of legal drama. — PV
Ace Attorney is available to rent or purchase digitally on Amazon , Google Play, and Apple .
This 2021 Mandarin-language movie is only kind of a video game adaptation, but it’s remarkable and worth mentioning either way. This is a sports drama set in the world of esports, following a young man who was once an esports prodigy and is now struggling to raise his child. When a huge tournament with a big prize pool opens up, he decides to get a team together for a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
The sports drama elements of BiuBiuBiu (amazing title, by the way) work fine, but this movie really shines when it comes to how it depicts the gaming sequences. Instead of just showing our protagonists playing the game on their phones, directors Hu Guohan and Zhou Siyao instead take us inside the world of the game in a shockingly immersive way, re-creating the janky movements of mobile games with startling accuracy.
BIUBIUBIU, aka PUBG: THE MOVIE, is currently on Youku's official YT channel with English subs. pic.twitter.com/gMab4nuCgx
The result is an exciting action movie that feels years ahead of its time. — PV
The Valorous Marksman (or BiuBiuBiu ) is available to watch in full on YouTube.
Anderson went even bigger with his latest video game adaptation, as Jovovich, Tony Jaa, and the rapper T.I. take on enormous monsters with very large weapons. Embracing the scale of the video games, both in opponents and fighting styles, Monster Hunter is fun popcorn cinema, and is the rare modern blockbuster to use CG effectively to create believable set-pieces. Featuring action-comedy buddy synergy between Jovovich and Jaa and gigantic set-pieces, Monster Hunter is big and dumb in all the best ways. — PV
Monster Hunter is available to watch on Starz through Prime Video , or for digital purchase at VOD vendors.
Riot Games’ League of Legends animated series, Arcane , is about the early life of League of Legends champions Vi, Jinx, Caitlyn, Jayce, and Viktor. The story centers on two connected narratives. One story follows Jinx’s descent into madness after a tragic accident and the journey of Vi to save her little sister from herself, while the other story follows Jayce and Viktor’s invention of Hextech, a new creation that fuses magic and technology. Aside from its fantastic characters and writing, the first season of Arcane is also among the most visually striking and uniquely gorgeous animated series in recent memory. —AG
Arcane is available to watch on Netflix.
Director Josh Ruben and writer Mishna Wolff’s 2021 horror comedy Werewolves Within is one of the best video game adaptations precisely for how many liberties it takes with its source material. Loosely inspired by the 2016 VR game of the same name, Ruben and Wolff’s film stars Sam Richardson ( I Think You Should Leave ) as Finn, a kind albeit hapless forest ranger who transfers to the small town of Beaverfield searching for a new start. Unfortunately, he ends up smack dab in the middle of a crisis when the townsfolk suspect a vicious lycanthropic murderer is lurking in their midst. Filled with quippy dialogue, thrilling twists, and charismatic comedic chemistry between Richardson and co-star Milana Vayntrub, Werewolves Within is a video game movie that outstrips its inspirations to become a delightful horror flick all its own. —Toussaint Egan
Werewolves Within is available to watch on Showtime through Prime Video , or for digital purchase at VOD vendors.

Angry Video Game Nerd: The Movie Trailer

Mike Matei has never watched the finished film.
At the Las Vegas casino, Mandi is seen playing a 'One Armed Bandit' fruit machine. A close up shot of the machine shows that she wins the 777 Jackpot but, when the camera angle changes to show her celebrating, the machine shows 3 random fruits, which is actually not a win at all.
As the end credits scroll, the Nerd finally reviews Eee Tee for the Atari 2600 in front of thousands of people, and though he still says it is a bad game, his final verdict is that it is cryptic and challenging as well as addicting and he respects that it holds a place in people's hearts. The flying saucer then speeds away.
The end credit sequence, along with a scene of the Nerd being transported down from the spaceship, was re-edited, using real footage from the E.T. video game, into a standalone episode. In the movie, due to copyright claims, the game is called Eee Tee. All gameplay of games shown in the film is recreated animated graphics, made to resemble the original games. Actual gameplay for the E.T. game was recorded, and then given to the animators during post-production to recreate with slightly different graphics.
In the Movie a sequel to Eee Tee, titled Eee Tee 2, makes an appearance and is comprised of 3D animated graphics, emulating the original video game.
Theme from Angry Video Game Nerd: The Movie Original theme written by Kyle Justin Arranged by Bear McCreary
I am a big fan of AVGN. I've been watching him from about 2011. I've seen every single AVGN episode quite a couple of times. When i heard about AVGN movie I was like holy cow i must watch it! But then when i did watch it, it was a disappointment. So let's start with the good things: The acting is OK, the lighting is good, the camera-work is OK too. I liked the 8-bit style soundtrack as well. Also the effects, while not great, are quite impressive, cause they are not done in CG. And... that's it. The rest sucks. Nerd himself isn't funny at all (i've never found him to be very funny in the first place) and he reminded me of MJ from Moonwalker (The opening scene). I don't know if it was intentional or not, but he seems to treat himself like a god and say: look at me! So yeah he sucks. However, his black sidekick Cooper is way worse... You might be wondering who is Cooper? Well, I don't know really. The only things we know are that his name is Cooper, he lives with his mom and he is a video game reviewer and calls himself The Rad Video Game Dude or something like that. There's actually nothing to say about the other characters. They are not funny and not very interesting. So yeah, the writing is this film's biggest sin. The movie is quite boring and there are scenes which don't go anywhere. Like the scene where Cooper talks nonsense about the world being flat and stuff like that. I was disappointed to NOT see Mike Matei or Kyle Justin in the movie... Oh wait, we do see them for 5 DAMN SECONDS...... I wouldn't mind at all if Mike was James's sidekick. He's not a bad actor. But then again, I don't think he needed a sidekick in the first place. He's The Nerd god dammit, he works alone! So that's pretty much all I can say about this movie. Sadly, I can't even recommend it for the
