DOA: Dead or Alive (2006)

Director: Corey Yuen
Writer: Story: J.F. Lawton Screenplay: J.F. Lawton, Adam Gross, Seth Gross
Cast: Jaime Pressly, Devon Aoki, Hollay Valance, Sarah Carter, Natassia Malthe, Eric Roberts
Genre: Action, Adventure

DOA: Dead or Alive is based on a video game and in several of the scenes they don't only embrace it, but almost pays homage towards it. For actors and actresses not among the best to begin with, several scenes seems rushed as I've seen these actresses do better when given the chance.

Still. This is a movie you only watch for popcorn purpose, so the lame story and the weak acting can be forgiven as long as it entertains. Sadly there's a major lack in that department as well, and DOA goes into eternity as just another video game made into a crappy movie.
