The action-thriller based on the hugely popular Hitman video game series, Hitman: Agent 47, is being released in theaters on Friday. This is the second time the series will be translated to the big screen. The 2007 effort, simply titled Hitman was a bust. Those involved in the new film hope they can change the trend.

No well respected actor or director is going to want to do a film based on a video game. There is a stigma associated with the concept that will probably never go away.

With that question in mind, we decided to take a look at the worst video game movies of all time.
