12 great actors who were in terrible video game movies
Glenn Close, for example, has a bafflingly small, "Is that really her?" cameo in the new "Warcraft" movie. While the film has made over $200 million worldwide, critics haven't taken kindly to the film.
Close isn't the only big name to appear in video game adaptations. Well-regarded industry legends like Burt Reynolds and Ben Kingsley have found themselves in video game movies that either bombed critically or commercially, sometimes both.
