Borderlands is the worst type of blockbuster. It’s not fun, not funny, not entertaining and feels like a slog.

It’s also one of the worst video game adaptations of all time. It feels like it's completely out of time and place. By now, Hollywood had slowly started to figure out how to handle video game adaptations. This movie feels like that time before they had any clue of what made these adaptations any good. The mis-casting of the main characters was one of this movie’s most monumental fuck-ups, but most definitely not it’s only one.

Join me as we venture to the border of insanity into this dull and generic world, trying to not lose our minds as we follow this motley group of misfits!

Let’s go already before I lose my mind!
