Well, the first 2 resident evil movies sure. And tomb raider and silent hill and the first mortal kombat. Other than those... How many actually good adaptations are there? But that only further proves your point. Adaptations can work, but only if the people making them give a fuck, and that's RARE.

Apparently the Kirby cartoon was also really good.
