The first Mortal Kombat was pretty faithful for the most part, it even had a giant four armed guy (who was my fav MK character)! When I think of really bad adaptations, Super Mario Bros and Max Payne come to mind (Usually I watch films to the end but Max Payne was just so terrible that I had to change channels after about a third of the way in, that's rare for me!). Those films just completely disregarded the videogame world they were 'inspired by'. You could honestly change the films title and it wouldn't change a single thing. That's the mark of a bad movie.
