MadCap (And a Ginger!) At the Movies - "Rampage"

So...Rampage. It was an arcade game back in the day when Midway was not bought out by the corporate puppets of Warner Brothers. Today, it's a one hundred and seven minute long movie that my friend Stoopidkid425 (he's the ginger in the title, check him out on PSN) and I went to see. And it's...okay.

That's it, really. It's just okay.

I've seen people going around saying that it's a triumph and finally breaks the curse of bad video game movies...and I really can't agree for a variety of reasons. Namely, we already have video game movies that are not bad. They're not masterpieces, to be sure, but there are a few ones that are enjoyable. There aren't many, sure, but there are those out there. There's Mortal Kombat or DOA: Dead or Alive if you want examples.

Yes, I know that both are stupid and shameless, but that's rather fitting of video game adaptations, don't you think?
