10 Video Game Movie Scenes That Actually NAILED IT

3. George Vs. Ralph Vs. Lizzie - Rampage

Doom movie
Warner Bros.

The Rampage movie had something of an advantage over most other video game adaptations because the games didn't really have much of a story to begin with.

And so, the filmmakers were free to conjure up whatever nonsense they wanted to facilitate the inevitable Battle Royale between a trio of gigantic, genetically mutated CGI animals.

It may be dumb as a box of rocks, but the Dwayne Johnson-starring tentpole certainly delivers all the big-budget mayhem and massive collateral damage you'd hope for from a movie based on Midway's city destruction simulator.

The climax sees primatologist Davis Okoye's (Dwayne Johnson) oversized gorilla pal George taking part in a triple threat grudge match against his fellow mutated animals Ralph (a wolf) and Lizzie (a crocodile).

To call the ensuing fight "bats**t" would be quite the understatement: it delivers pretty much everything you could possibly want from the setup, with all three animals causing their fair share of human death and destruction while wailing away on one another.

A giant crocodile rips a giant wolf's head off and then a giant gorilla impales the crocodile through the skull - what more could you ask for?
