Roulette Reviews - Borderlands (Doesn't Deserve A Subtitle)

In this review, I discuss the abject disappointment that was the Borderlands film. Taking a zany video game and turning into a blob of bland nothingness is no small feat, but it was achieved nonetheless. Really there are almost no saving graces in this film, and not much of anything can even be considered passable. There are a litany of reasons for the films numerous shortcomings, but one stands out above the rest, and in this review I discuss what that central issue is.
Did you subject yourself to Borderlands? Did you survive? If so, do you agree? What did you think of it? Anything I fail to mention that you noticed?

Also, special shoutout to the following videos for acting as video game source material for the in-game footage I was certainly not going through the hours and hours and hours of trouble of recreating myself. Appreciation to these channels and their almost decade-old, yet evergreen videos.

Thanks for the review - seems many people agree with the conclusions drawn. Personally, I'm very pleased I did not see this before watching the film, which I enjoyed. Having not played the games, I had no preconceptions and just enjoyed the fun. Cate and Ariana are excellent, whatever the role or lines given. Probably agree that Kevin Hart was not as memorable. I guess we have such very high expectations these days, but I still enjoy a simple fun adventure
