- danielius5719. mai 2026It really didn't seem to stay true to the game. for a game that focuses on a variety of guns and large explosions. The movie seemed to under deliver in that regard as well as having pretty bland performances for characters that were very expressive in the game. It was fun to see my some of my favorite characters brought to life, but I understand why a sequel wasn't green a lit.
- ApocMora15. april 2026Honestly, had they just had Lilith be her own new unique Siren instead of trying to retcon rob the spot of the original series character Lilith, the entire storyline would have been better for it. It both erased pre-existing character history, narrowed the scope of the character in a less than ideal way, and just pissed me off as a fan. Then they did that with multiple other characters, such as Krieg and Tina. Also...I am surprised that I think Kris Rock did so well as Rolan...I really expected him to not be a good fit. Not a perfect fit, but he helped play off the zaneyness of others well enough to actually act as a meshing effect. So, yeah, well done. Otherwise, just really hating how much of the game series lore they decide to just ignore or complete screw up or retcon for the movie, that did not require such. Next time, maybe have a few folks who actually played and liked the games on hand to tell you when you are messing up that badly...because this should have been an easy win.
- Shaydeknight2. april 2026Borderlands works best when taken as a deliberately silly action film. On that level, it's serviceable. The CGI sits around a B+, colourful and energetic but often overbearing. It's not too well done, especially when it integrates people into the special effects. The script offers a lot of game catchphrases and bits of lore, which land occasionally but rarely build momentum. Now, the film does intermittently capture the anarchic tone of the games. The problem is translation. The series thrives on the immediacy and exaggeration of a first person shooter. That energy is difficult to convert into a conventional ensemble action narrative. The film substitutes noise and quips for interactivity, and the substitution only partly works. The casting is OK overall, but Cate Blanchett is an odd choice for Lilith. She's in phenomenal shape, and she's always enjoyable to watch, but this film needed someone else. I mean, the film itself indicates the character is about forty five and Blanchett was about fifty-five at release, and the difference is visible. More importantly, she's not especially convincing in heavy action. She works better in roles where presence does most of the work. Here, they aim for something intense and gritty, and it just doesn't suit her. Several slow motion shots that go for "cool" end up highlighting the problem. She looks slightly out of her depth in the choreography, while also seeming too good for the material. That makes the performance feel split. Either she was miscast, or she was poorly directed, but the result never quite clicks. As a Saturday afternoon diversion, it's fine. Viewers unfamiliar with the games will likely accept it at face value and enjoy the spectacle. Fans, however, may find that the specific kind of chaotic fun the games provide does not survive the shift away from the FPS format. The film isn't bad, it's simply less lively than the source it imitates.
- Richard7. desember 2025Even though I never played the games, I found myself enjoying the Borderlands movie. It had a wild, chaotic energy that pulled me in, with colorful characters and over the top action that made it fun to watch. The humor and style felt exaggerated in the best way, like the film knew it was meant to be outrageous and leaned into that fully. What stood out was how accessible it was, you didn’t need to know the game’s lore to follow along. The movie delivered a mix of sci-fi adventure and comedy that worked on its own terms. For me, it was simply entertaining and I think it deserves credit for being more fun than many expected. By the time it ended, I realized it had given me exactly what I wanted: a loud, stylish ride that didn’t take itself too seriously.
